Fortress Foundation Solutions Before & After Photos

Suzanne B. called Fortress Foundation Solutions. She had water in her basement, but was concerned about several obstacles - one being a fireplace. A System Designer met with her providing an inspection and free estimate. He was able to reassure Suzanne that our WaterGuard System can be installed around any obstacles without compromise. Hearing the great news, she was ready to move forward. Soon a Fortress Waterproofing crew was onsite installing the system which included a full perimeter drainage system, a TripleSafe sump pump with back up battery and a SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier to remove excess moisture. The crew also installed trench drain around the fireplace, in front of exterior doors, and around the hot water heater and water softener, tying the drainage into the WaterGuard. Now Suzanne's basement is healthy, safe and completely dry!

In the 'before' photo, notice the concerning issue of shearing walls that posed significant risks to a homeowner in Saxe, Virginia. This foundation problem was expertly resolved by Fortress Foundation Solutions with our GeoLock Channel Anchor system. This solution permanently secures the entire wall, actively preventing further inward movement. As you can see in the 'after' photo, the correct installation at optimal points helps stabilize these walls efficiently. The project not only restores safety but also regains the property’s value swiftly and reliably.

In Wylliesburg, the homeowner contacted us due to a persistently wet basement, as seen in the before photo. Such conditions compromise both the structural integrity and usability of the space. At Fortress Foundation Solutions, we employed our WaterGuard® system to resolve this issue efficiently. This advanced interior perimeter drainage system is meticulously designed to channel water away from foundation walls and keep it out of the basement. Our installation guarantees that, as depicted in the after photo, the basement remains clean and dry, effectively transformed into a reliable, usable space.

This homeowner located in Starsburg, VA wanted a cleaner, healthier, and brighter crawl space, which is why they wanted to have our CleanSpace Vapor Barrier installed. They had multiple companies come out to take a look but this homeowner was blown away by Fortress Foundation Solutions. Every step of the way, Fortress gave this homeowner peace of mind. 

This home in Strasburg had water seeping in along the foundation with rain. The homeowner reached out to Fortress because they were tired of having a wet basement.

Fortress was able to fix this issue by going out and installing our WaterGuard System, along with a SmartSump sump pump. These products will work together and keep this basement dry!
