Before & After Photos

A family in Billerica, MA, faced the daunting problem of their finished basement becoming a casualty to intrusive water, significantly damaging the walls and floor. As you can see in the before photo, the damage was extensive, creating a less than ideal living space. Rise to the rescue, Erickson Foundation Solutions stepped in with a dependable fix. Notice in the after photo, we seamlessly integrated WaterGuard and IceGuard into their existing sump pump system, topped off with the installation of the Everlast Half Wall for a rejuvenated basement space. This transformation not only solved the issue at hand but did so in a way that upholds our mission to deliver a lasting solution and an exceptional customer experience.

A homeowner in Hooksett, New Hampshire, had water seeping up through cracks in their basement slab. They have tried to fix the problem with DIY fixes but none stand the test of time. After a couple of failed attempts, the homeowner decided to call EFS for a free inspection of their basement. Our Design Specialist met with the homeowner and looked at the basement to find a solution. After the inspection, we recommended installing a perimeter drainage system with a TripleSafe and SaniDry Sedona to pump water and moisture out of the basement. 

This homeowner in Pelham, New Hampshire had several leaks in their basement. The homeowner was looking to sell the 1950's home in the next couple of years. They didn't want to sell the home knowing that there are leaks in the basement. The homeowner decided to call EFS for a free inspection. 

Design Specialist Chris Greenwood inspected the basement. He found where the cracks were allowing water into the basement. The homeowner had an existing sump pump but Chris recommended installing a new Water Guard System to the perimeter of the basement. 

A homeowner in Pelham, New Hampshire, had water and dirt entering their basement. They wanted to stop the water and dirt from coming into their basement. EFS recommended installing a perimeter drainage system in their basement. Our team installed WaterGuard, TripleSafe, SaniDry, and IceGuard in the basement. 

A homeowner in Pelham, NH, who recently settled into her new residence, observed a crack stemming from her egress window. This defect led to water leakage in the basement during rains, resulting in puddles on the floor. Eager to address the water intrusion and prevent the crack from expanding, she contacted Erickson Foundation Solutions for assistance.

Our Design Specialist, Debra Rayborn, suggested the use of FlexiSpan to address the crack and halt additional basement leaks. The installation team applied a pliable sealant across the entire length of the crack, followed by placing a strip of porous, flexible foam over it. To complete the process, they secured an impermeable membrane on the wall flanking both sides of the foam strip. This robust solution ensures that any subsequent water seepage through the crack will be discreetly directed down the wall and into the basement's perimeter drainage system. Our team removed a small section of the basement's concrete floor to install WaterGuard, which captures any water that may seep through. Once installed, the WaterGuard system was securely cemented into position.

Upon project completion, the crew cleaned the basement and conducted a final walkthrough with the homeowner, demonstrating the installation and addressing any remaining questions. The homeowner can now rest assured that her basement will remain dry and her foundation is secure.
