Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Lowell, MA was experiencing several signs of basement and foundation trouble, including musty odors, leaking basement windows, spider activity, and sagging floors above the basement. Moisture intrusion was creating an unhealthy environment, while weakened floor support raised concerns about the home's long-term structural stability.

To create a safer, drier, and more stable home, Erickson Foundation Solutions installed a comprehensive waterproofing and stabilization system. The solution included our WaterGuard® perimeter drainage system, UltraSump® battery backup sump pump, SaniDry™ XP dehumidifier, SmartJack® support posts, and replacement basement windows. As a result, the basement is now protected against water intrusion, humidity levels are controlled, and the floors above have the support they need. The homeowner can enjoy improved air quality, enhanced structural integrity, and greater peace of mind through every season.

A resident of Alton Bay, New Hampshire, bought their house four years ago. They recently observed water seeping into their basement and accumulating on the floor. Seeking a solution, they contacted EFS for a complimentary inspection. Our expert, Isaac Hernandez, assessed the basement and proposed installing WaterGuard in conjunction with the current TripleSafe to increase water capture.

A homeowner in Dracut, Massachusetts, has lived in their home since 1995. Just over a year ago, they had noticed a crack in their basement. The crack seemed to come out of nowhere and the homeowner thinks that the crack had formed because of blasting in the area. The homeowner decided to call EFS because the crack began to leak water into the basement and they wanted the crack sealed. Our Design Specialist met with the homeowner and recommended installing FlexiSpan over the crack in the basement. 

A homeowner in Dracut, Massachusetts, has cracks in their basement that have been leaking for the past 20 years. When the cracks began leaking it would only let a small amount of water into the basement, now years later the crack allows gallons. The homeowner called EFS for a free inspection of their basement and our specialist looked at the basement and recommended installing FlexiSpans over the cracks. This will prevent the water from entering the basement and direct it beneath the home so it can flow away from the foundation wall. 

In Dracut, MA, a homeowner faced the frustrating reality of water intrusion through their basement's back right corner and bulkhead entrance. Notice in the ‘before’ photo how distressing this moisture problem was. But, no challenge is too great for us.

Now, their basement is enjoyably dry and worry-free.
