Before & After Photos

Before addressing the issues at a homeowner's property in Raymond, NH, their back porch rested on sonotubes, which couldn't adequately ensure stability. Our expert team diagnosed that a lasting solution was necessary to safeguard the porch's integrity. Notice in the after photo how the application of our Helical Pier System transformed the landscape. We installed engineered steel helical piers, anchoring them into load-bearing soils. This permanent foundation stabilization not only protects against future settlement but also restored the homeowner's peace of mind with a reliable, long-term solution.

This homeowner in Lexington, Massachusetts recently purchased her childhood home. She is planning on doing manageable renovations to increase the value of the home. She had completed a couple of renovations already but now has started working on the garage. Water from the driveway has been entering the garage and has caused some damage. She decided to call EFS for a free inspection. 

Design Specialist Brian Swindell inspected the foundation and garage of the home. Brian discovered that there is some void below the slab in the garage that he recommend filling before attempting to lift the slab. To help stop the water from entering the garage Brian recommended installing Trench Drain at the mouth of the garage with a downspout. 

Crew Lead Nick Melo and his team lifted the mouth of the garage to level and then filled the void under the slab. After the PolyLevel was injected, the team installed the Trench Drain at the mouth of the garage.  

This homeowner in Lexington, MA was looking for a contractor to make some repairs in the crawlspace beneath their home. The floors were sagging and a little creaky, and so the support columns needed to be replaced and upgraded to something more substantial. They were also concerned with the dirt floor in the crawlspace, as this was effecting the air quality in their home. 

Our team reinforced the floor system and support beams with our patented SmartJack system, steel support posts with wide bases and adjustable brackets. Once the SmartJack columns were in place and the beams were permanently stabilized, the dirt floor of the crawlspace was then also covered with Cleanspace vapor barrier. This encapsulation system will help control humidity levels, improve air quality (prevents dust and mites), and create an all around cleaner crawlspace for the homeowners. 

The transformation of the dirty crawlspace into a clean area was exactly what the homeowner wanted and needed, and they were thrilled with the results. 

After moving into their newly purchased home, these owners wished to make several upgrades and improvements. One of the first items they needed to fix were their uneven, sloping floors. The basement was full of temporary jacks and wood columns, which were not properly supporting the floor. This before and after shows the failing column supports and the SmartJack (warrantied) which replaced them.

A homeowner in West Newton, Massachusetts, lived in a 1920s home that has a stone foundation that lets moisture into the home. Our team sealed the foundation wall by spraying PolyLevel Wall Restoration over the stone.
