Before & After Photos

In Andover, MA, a homeowner was facing structural stability issues as tree stumps were used as makeshift supports under their floors, causing them to split. Notice the instability in the floor system in the before photo. To rectify this, we installed the SmartJack® System, seen in the after photo, which stabilized and lifted the floors to their original elevation. This method ensures lasting support and reduces the floor's "bounce." Using galvanized steel columns secured with engineered fill provides robust support, resolving any foundational concerns with professionalism and precision.

A homeowner in Fremont, New Hampshire, had lived in their 1920s home for over a decade and had seen water leaking through their old bulkhead door. The homeowners decided to call EFS for a free inspection of their bulkhead to find a solution to prevent water from seeping into the basement. 

Our Design Specialist met with the homeowners and inspected the bulkhead door and determined that the wooden and concrete base had given way to allow water to flow into the basement. Our specialist recommended replacing the bulkhead with a new one. Before leaving the home our specialist measured the bulkhead so our installation team could install the correct size door. 

Our installation team arrived at the home and replaced the old bulkhead door with our new one.
