Before & After Photos

A homeowner is selling their home in the near future and wants to make sure the selling process goes smoothly. Structural issues were a big concern. Looking to strengthen the foundation, this homeowner reached out to Erickson Foundation Solutions.

Design Specialist, Mark Proctor, noticed severe foundation problems upon giving a free home inspection. Cobblestone walls had settled, resulting in brick walls bowing outward and even partially collapsing. With such drastic basement damage, Mark recommended reconstructing the foundation walls and pouring a new concrete slab. Our installation crew demoed the entire front wall section, carefully disassembling the corner that was held together by only foam. Reconstructing the foundation was a challenge with rain hitting the exposed cobblestone, but with the crew's care and attention to detail, they were able to overcome it.

With a new foundation, the home is now properly supported. This homeowner now has peace of mind during the home selling process, and while he continues to live in the home.

A homeowner in Concord, New Hampshire, had their stone and brick foundaiton wall bowing outward. The homeowner reached out to EFS for a free inspection of their foundation to find a solution for their home. Our Design Specialist inspected the home and recommended installing an Auxiliary Wall against the foundation where the wall was bowing outward. Our crew arrived at the home and installed an Auxiliary wall over the bowing section of the foundation. 

The homeowner in Bedford, NH, faced significant foundation issues, particularly in the original structure dating back to 1936, where the wall began to crumble. In the before photo, you can see the compromised integrity of the foundation. To address this, we rebuilt 13 feet of the affected foundation wall, incorporated a SmartJack unit to stabilize weak floors, and installed a WaterGuard perimeter drainage system. Further waterproofing efforts included a TripleSafe sump pump, SunHouse Window Wells, and a new bulkhead. The after photo shows the restored stability and protection against future water intrusion.

A homeowner in Nashua, New Hampshire had a crack running along their foundation wall. Typically, a crack like this can worsen over time if left untreated. Eventually, this could cause the basement wall to lean and bow, and even potentially collapse. Concerned about the safety of her home, this homeowner reached out to us for a permanent solution.

Our Design Specialist recommended installing PowerBrace, a foundation wall repair system. This system supports and stabilizes bowing and leaning walls, and can even straighten them. Additionally, FlexiSpan, a polyurethane sealant, was installed to seal the crack. This material adjusts to movements in the basement wall and prevents water from making its way through the crack.

With this system in place, the home is now properly supported, and the wall has been stabilized. This homeowner now has peace of mind that her forever home is safe.

Before foundation repair, the homeowners in Gilmanton, NH faced alarming vertical cracks, indicating severe settlement issues. These cracks threatened the structural integrity and safety of their home. Concerned for the stability and solidity of their residence, they reached out to Erickson Foundation Solutions. Using our Push Pier System, we successfully stabilized the foundation and reversed the damage. As you can see, the home's foundation has been lifted back toward its original position, ensuring long-term security and function, and restoring the homeowner’s peace of mind and property value.
