Before & After Photos

These homeowners in Mirror Lake, New Hampshire recently purchased their forever home. Before further investing in other home projects, they wanted to make sure the foundation was secure and safe. This led them to reach out to our Erickson Foundations Team to schedule a free inspection.

Justin Broussard carefully inspected the basement and then consulted with the homeowners. He noticed that one of their foundation walls was bowing extremely inward and was at risk of even potentially collapsing in. For a home that was built in the 1700's, it was crucial that this home got the support it needed. Justin recommended installing our PowerBrace auxiliary foundation wall. This wall stabilizes the fieldstone foundation. The homeowners recognized the importance of the situation and scheduled an installation date.

Once our installation crew had the auxiliary wall in place and completed the job, they had a walkthrough with the homeowners to go over the work that was done. The homeowners were very happy with the job knowing that their forever home is now supported by a strong foundation.

A homeowner in Center Barnstead, New Hampshire, had seen a crack start to form in their garage around 5 years ago. They have seen the crack get larger and decided they wanted to have it sealed. They called EFS and we found that the crack was caused by the concrete slab settling. We then recommended installing 3 Helical Piers under the right side of the garage, then using PolyLevel to lift and level the slab, and finally sealing the crack using NexusPro. 

A homeowner in Wolfeboro, New Hampshire, purchased their home 10+ years ago. They have put the home on the market and a prospective buyer had backed out due to some foundation concerns. On the back of the garage, the foundation has some cracking that has raised concerns for interested buyers. The seller decided they would like to have the problem repaired so the sale would go smoother. 

The homeowners called EFS for a free inspection of their foundation and our Design Specialist met with the homeowner and recommended installing Geolocks to the foundation.

A homeowner in Methuen, Massachusetts had removed the drywall in their basement due to water seepage, only to discover that there were massive cracks in their foundation wall. They reached out to Erickson Foundation Solutions to stabilize the wall and protect the property value.

Our Design Specialist, Tom Armano, recommended installing GeoLocks to prevent the foundation wall from further bowing inward. The GeoLocks are put in place by installing steel plates to the wall, and anchoring them in to strong, durable soil outside of the home. This prevents the wall from leaning and can even straighten it.

With the GeoLocks installed, the wall is stabilized, and the home is properly supported. The homeowner now has peace of mind in having a safe basement.

A home in Wilmington, Massachusetts, had an issue with the foundation sinking. The homeowners decided to call EFS for a free inspection of their foundation. Our Design Specialist Mark Proctor met with the homeowner and inspected all of their concerns. After the inspection, Mark recommended installing Helical Piers around the settling portion of the foundation. We installed a total of 8 Helical Piers around the sinking corner of the foundation.
