In North Andover, MA, a newly purchased home faced an issue with temporary support posts serving as floor supports, compromising the stability of its foundation. As seen in the initial photo, these posts risked long-term structural issues. Erickson Foundation Solutions resolved this by installing the SmartJack® System, creating a steady, reliable support base that elevated the floors to their proper level and mitigated unwanted floor movement. Additionally, our installation of a radon mitigation system markedly improved air safety by reducing radon levels from 12 pCi/L to below 4 pCi/L, ensuring a safe environment.

A homeowner in Cambridge, Massachusetts lives near the train tracks and has a crack in their foundation that they would like to have repaired. The crack goes from the bottom of the siding to almost the footing. Erickson Foundation Solutions came to the home and inspected the crack in the foundation. They sealed the crack with crack injection and installed a crack monitor on it. The crack monitor will allow them to see if the crack is actively getting bigger or staying the same. 

The owner of a 1900s condo in Cambridge, Massachusetts, had cracking drywall and weak floors in their building. The condo had 3 tenants that had previously complained about cracking drywalls and weak floors. The condo owner decided to call EFS for an inspection, and our design specialist recommended replacing the old supports in the basement with SmartJack. The team planned to install all of the SmartJacks and then removed the old supports.
