Sinking and Cracking Garage Floor, Sudbury, MA
This homeowner in Sudbury, Massachusetts was experiencing cracking and sinking in their garage. EFS came to the home with our PolyLevel Truck and injected PolyLevel under the garage slab to lift and level the garage. After the garage was leveled EFS sealed all of the cracks in the garage to finish off the project.
Barn Wall Stabilization, Danbury, NH
A homeowner in Danbury, New Hampshire noticed that the stairs in his barn have been shifting out of place over the years. His cobblestone wall had also been bowing inwards, which was of big concern. With this barn being used for livestock and storage, it was essential that it got the proper support.
Our Design Specialist, Jason Vachon, recommended installing an auxiliary wall along with our GeoLock wall anchor system. This system prevents the foundation wall from continuing to bow and lean in, and can also even straighten the wall. This system is installed by first putting the auxiliary wall in place. Once the concrete has dried, galvanized steel plates are attached to the wall and a steel rod is connected and then drilled through the soil. Once durable soil is found, an anchor is connected to the rod. This supports and stabilizes the auxiliary wall.
With this system in place, the barn is now receiving the proper support and stability. This will put an end to bowing and wall cracks, and will definitely stop the wall from collapsing. This homeowner can have peace of mind that his livestock and storage will stay safe.

Leaking Roof Causing Water to Collect in Garage, Acton, MA
This homeowner in Acton, Massachusetts, was experiencing water pooling in their garage after every rainstorm. The water that was coming into the garage from the driveway was causing the foundation to sink. Design Specialist Jason Furrey came to the home to inspect the homeowner's concerns. Jason confirmed that there was a leak in the roof of the garage causing water to come into the garage and settle on the garage floor. Crew Lead Nick Melo and his team came to the home and used PolyLevel to lift the sinking garage floor.
Gutting Kitchen Beginning with Stabilizing Floor, Acton, MA
A homeowner in Acton, Massachusetts, had lived in a home that was built in 1769. They have lived in the home since last October and planned on gutting the kitchen and remodeling it. Because of the age of the home, the homeowners wanted to replace the beam and floor joist of the kitchen floor. For extra precaution, the homeowners decided to reach out to EFS for options of additional support under the new beam and joists. Our design specialist recommended installing 4 SmartJacks under the beam and installing CleanSpace in the crawlspace under the kitchen.
The team installed the supports under the beam to support the new weight of the remodeled kitchen. After the SmartJacks were installed the team installed CleanSpace to encapsulate the crawlspace to prevent moisture and pests from entering the crawlspace.
