Crawl Space Stabilization and Encapsulation, Hillsborough, NH

A homeowner in Hillsborough, New Hampshire had been experiencing sinking floors in their home. In an attempt to support the structure, the homeowners put concrete blocks under the support beam. This unconventional technique did not work, so they turned to Erickson Foundation Solutions for a professional and permanent solution.

After a thorough inspection, Design Specialist Jason Vachon recommended installing SmartJacks and encapsulating the crawl space with CleanSpace. This proposal would uplift and stabilize the home, while also providing a dry crawl space. Our installation crew started by putting the SmartJacks in place. This consisted of placing the steel plates on crushed stone to create a sturdy base, attaching the steel beams to those plates, and then attaching those beams to the supplemental support beam that was installed and leveled. With the SmartJacks in place, the team could then move forward with encapsulating the crawl space with CleanSpace. This vapor barrier was applied to the entire crawl space. Finally, our SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier was put in place.

This solution by our team delivers stability to the entire home and a dry and insulated crawl space. The benefits of these features include leveled floors, protection from insects and critters, a comfortable living space, and better air quality. The homeowner really enjoyed the result.

Sinking Front Steps in Warner, New Hampshire

The entrance to this small business in Warner, New Hampshire had 50 year old concrete steps. Over time, the steps settled and cracked, and so the store front was not appealing. The owner planned on doing a complete remodel of the exterior of the building, but first needed to address the stability of the steps.

PolyLEVEL was injected beneath the steps to raise them back to a near level position, and the cracks were sealed to complete the look. Job was completed by foreman Andrew Ahlquist.
