Before & After Photos

The foundation of this home in Woburn, MA was built on and within ledge rock. Over time, soils moved and the walls were shifting and cracking. With so much ledge, there were few options available for repairs. However, PowerBraces were the perfect solution, along with pouring a new, reinforced wall to contain and enhance the system.

This homeowner in Woburn, Massachusetts had their insurance company come out and tell them that they need to fix a crack in their foundation. They called Erickson Foundation Supportworks because we had done some work for them in the past. 

Michael LaMalfa was the Design Specialist on this project. He designed an effective solution to a cracked and bowing foundation wall. He proposed Geolocks to stop the wall from bowing. Then, pour a secondary auxillary wall to reinforce it entirely, as well as dress it up a bit.

The before pictures show the wall had bulges from its bowing. The after picture shows what it looked like after the auxillary wall was poured.

A home in Woburn, Massachusetts, that was built in the 1700s has a stone foundation that was recently repointed. Our production team sprayed PolyLevel Wall Restoration over the fieldstone sections of the wall to help seal and contain the stones. While this method is not fully waterproofed, the wall is more stable and less likely to crumble or deteriorate.

This homeowner in Wilmington, Massachusetts was experiencing some cracking and leaning of their foundation walls. Design Specialist Kyle Jamerson came out to the home and inspected all of the areas in question. Kyle suggested that they seal the cracks with Crack Seal and install PowerBraces to secured and strengthen the wall.  Crew Lead Spencer Ladd and his team came to the home and sealed the cracks and installed the PowerBraces to strengthen the foundation of the home.
