Lally Column Replacement, Londonderry, NH
This homeowner was concerned with two lally columns in their garage which were beginning to show wear and tear. They reached out to our Erickson Foundation Solutions team to install SmartJack columns in place of the traditional lally column supports.
Our specialist designed the layout for the new columns, and after approval from the building department for Londonderry, we scheduled and installed the job. Installation took one day, and involved setting new concrete footings and adjustment of the posts. The new columns are built to last, giving this homeowner peace of mind that the structure above his garage is permanently supported.
Basement Floor Supports, West Newton, MA
After moving into their newly purchased home, these owners wished to make several upgrades and improvements. One of the first items they needed to fix were their uneven, sloping floors. The basement was full of temporary jacks and wood columns, which were not properly supporting the floor. This before and after shows the failing column supports and the SmartJack (warrantied) which replaced them.
Poly Wall Restoration, West Newton, MA
A homeowner in West Newton, Massachusetts, lived in a 1920s home that has a stone foundation that lets moisture into the home. Our team sealed the foundation wall by spraying PolyLevel Wall Restoration over the stone.
EZ Posts Under Home Addition
The existing concrete pillars supporting this home's bump-out addition were sinking and leaning more and more over the years. The bump-out required more stable supports, and so EZ Posts were installed to replace the pillars.
Foundation Crack Causing Concern, Billerica, MA
A homeowner in Billerica, Massachusetts, had lived in their home for almost 20 years and this year they started to notice some cracks in their foundation wall. Recently they installed a new oil tank and started to notice cracking after the tank was installed. Their home was built in the 1950s and this is the first issue they have seen with the foundation. To address their concerns they decided to call EFS for a free inspection, our design specialist found the cracks in their foundation wall were forming because of pressure from the exterior of the home. Our design specialist recommended installing PowerBraces against the foundation wall to add support.
