This client called Fortress Foundation Solutions about water collecting in herbasement. Our System Designer, Skylar, went out to the home and found water seeping into the basement through the walls. Skylar completed a full inspection and presented the homeowner with a proposal and a quote. She was happy with both and decided to move forward with the work. When our Foreman, Alex, and his crew went out to fix the issue, they used our WaterGuard drainage solution on the floor below to ensure that any water that was collected drained to the TripleSafe Sump Pump, which was then transferred to the discharge line outside of the home.
This customer is very satisfied with the work and happy that water intrusion will no longer be an issue in her home!
This client noticed his concrete patio sinking away from the house, so he called Fortress Foundation Solutions. We sent out our System Designer, Brandon Conner, who inspected the porch thoroughly and gave our client an estimate. After he accepted it, our Poly Crew, Mickey Knight and Dominique "Dom" Wells, went out to complete the project. They lifted the concrete patio by injecting our PolyLevel Foam underneath, then sealed the cracks with our NexusPro Joist Sealant. Our client loved the look of his newly raised patio!
In Roseland, Gary had been dealing with ongoing moisture issues in his 1,600-square-foot crawl space. The area felt damp, and signs of organic growth had started appearing throughout the space—raising concerns about the overall health and condition of the home. Without proper protection, excess moisture was continuing to create an unhealthy environment beneath the house.
To restore and protect the crawl space, Travis, Jack, and Tyler first treated the affected areas with MoldX to remove existing organic growth and improve the environment beneath the home. The crew then installed a CleanSpace® vapor barrier throughout the crawl space to seal out ground moisture and help maintain a dry, protected space.
To further improve the home's efficiency and comfort, SilverGlo™ insulation was installed along the crawl space walls to help regulate temperatures year-round. As shown in the after photos, the crawl space has been completely transformed into a clean, sealed, and healthier environment with long-term protection against future moisture problems.
In Roseland, VA, homeowners purchased a home "as is" and, during renovations, contacted Fortress Foundation Solutions for a free evaluation to ensure the crawl space was structurally sound before rebuilding the floors. Sumner, our System Designer, performed the inspection and discovered failing floor joists, a rotted main beam, high humidity, insulation scattered throughout the crawl space, gaps and cracks allowing outside air to enter, and overall poor conditions.
Sumner developed a comprehensive repair plan and walked the homeowners through each recommendation. After approving the proposal, our Foreman Pete and his crew completed the project over the course of about a week.
The completed solution included a full crawl space encapsulation, a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier, SilverGlo wall insulation, sill plate replacement, main beam replacement, and extensive joist sistering. Today, these homeowners have a safe, stable, and healthier crawl space - providing a strong foundation they can confidently continue building their home on.
This client was worried about his broken, sunken concrete becoming a tripping hazard at his elderly mother's home, so he called Fortress Foundation Solutions to give him an estimate on repairing it. We sent out our System Designer, Caleb Stone, who did a thorough inspection and gave the client a quote. After the customer accepted, we sent out our Poly Crew, Mickey Knight and Dominique "Dom" Wells to fix the issue. They injected our PolyLevel Foam under the broken concrete to make it level, then sealed the cracks with our NexusPro Crack Repair. Our client loved his new, level concrete!
