Fortress Foundation Solutions Before & After Photos

A homeowner near Falling Waters, WV had been noticing several soft spots in her floor. She had a kitchen remodel a few years back and installed granite countertops, an island and a larger refrigerator. Now her floor was beginning to sag under the added weight. She reached out to Fortress Foundation Solutions. Our System Designer met with her, providing a free estimate for SmartJack® Crawl Space Stabilizers. These are an adjustable supplemental support system used for sagging crawl spaces. They not only provide supplemental support, but can often lift failing floor joists or beams, restoring them to their original position. Now this homeowner can confidently walk in her kitchen without feeling like she will fall through the floor!

Tom B. of Harrisonburg, VA experienced water coming into his basement with every rain. He called Fortress Foundation Solutions and made an appointment. A System Designer performed an inspection and using his moisture meter, could measure the high levels. He was able to give him a free estimate for a FlexiSpan. This is a flexible sealant that will never dry or crack and ensures a waterproof seal. Soon a Fortress crew was at the home and in a few hours the project was complete. Now when it rains, Tom knows his basement will stay dry!

The foundation in this basement was bowing and had horizontal cracks along the walls. Fortress installed Carbon Armor straps along the wall to stabalize the foundation.

This home in Madison, VA was having some water intrusion issues in the crawl space of the home. The crawl space not only had water but it was there was also a lot of moisture. After calling Fortress Foundation Solutions, we were able to send our System Designer to provide a free estimate. The System Designer knew the best solution would be an encapsulation.

Our Forman and his crew were able to install the following products to ensure a moisture and water free crawl space. The crew installed our CleanSpace Vapor Barrier to protect the area from the outside elements. This clean Space also adds a very bright look to the area. We also installed out Smart Pipe and SmartSump Crawl Space Sump Pump System to transfer water and pump it out. To help control the moisture in the crawl space the crew also installed our SaniDry Dehumidifier.   

We lifted and leveled the concrete on the side walk and stairs of this estate to remove any trip hazards this may have presented. This allowed the homeowners to list their home on the market with the confidence in knowing their concrete wouldn't cause any issues with potential home buyers.
