Before & After Photos

This homeowner in Andover, Massachusetts, had noticed cracks forming in the wall of their foundation. The cracks had gotten more significant over time due to settlement and had started to leak water. The homeowners decided to call EFS for a free inspection and to help determine the best solution.  After the inspection was completed by our Design Specialist, we recommended installing 8 Push Piers and FlexiSpan around the front left corner of the home to stabilize the foundation and seal the cracks that were allowing water into the basement. The piers were the ideal permanent solution, ensuring no further settlement would occur. 

This homeowner from Andover, Massachusetts recently bought a home without an inspection. Now, he is making investments to fix up his home. Adding stability to his structure is of great importance. The floors above the garage are bouncy and there are slight signs of sinking. This homeowner understood that it was important to solve the problem before matters got much worse.

Our team noted that the old Lally Column wasn't providing the proper support to the home that was needed. This is why we chose to replace it with a SmartJack. This support system is made with strong, corrosion-resistant, galvanized steel. This ensures that it won't develop rust or be damaged by pests. SmartJack posts are installed on a sturdy base that prevents further settlement.

This will provide the proper support and stabilization to the home, while fixing the issue of the sinking floors.

In the first photo, notice the old, temporary support columns in an Andover home, causing floors above to sag and threaten the home’s integrity. Our team replaced these with SmartJacks, as depicted in the after snapshot, providing a stable, strong foundation and permanently fixing the issue. This transformation not only secured the home but truly reflects our mission to offer lastingly reliable solutions and a notable customer experience. Witness the Erickson Foundation Solutions difference through this striking before and after.

When our team arrived in Andover, MA, we were met with a home in dire need of foundational support—particularly, a Lally column eagerly awaiting replacement in the basement, as pinpointed in the before photo. Swift to action, we introduced SmartJack—a reliable, steadfast solution engineered precisely for such repairs. Notice in the after photo, the transformation is clear. The once sagging foundation now stands secure and strong, ensuring safety and serenity for homeowners, thanks to Erickson Foundation Solutions.

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.
