Fortress Foundation Solutions Before & After Photos

Jimi H. of Berkeley Springs, WV noticed water damage in his unfinished basement after a weekend of heavy rain. He recognized it was time to contact Fortress Foundation Solutions and schedule his complimentary estimate.

System Designer Kurtis Toppert identified that the pressure from the heavy rains had led to a buildup of water near the foundation, causing a hairline crack that allowed water to seep in—a phenomenon known as hydrostatic pressure.

Kurtis swiftly addressed the crack by utilizing flexible carbon fiber fabric straps called CarbonArmor which are up to 10 times stronger in tension than steel. Using high-strength epoxy resin, the carbon fiber straps were bonded to the interior face of the wall. They dried quickly and will not affect future basement finishing plans.

Immar and Edgar served as the foremen on this project. After applying the CarbonArmor, they covered the wall with in BrightWall and installed our WaterGuard system around the entire perimeter to ensure a consistently dry basement. Furthermore, they tied our WaterGuard system into our Triple Safe Sump Pump system, providing these homeowners with complete and total peace of mind.

This home owner called Fortress Foundation Solutions worried because there was a musty smell throughout their home. They called our Fortress team and we sent our System Designer, Sonny, out to take a look. Sonny inspected the property and discovered water getting into their crawl space. After Sonny was finished with his inspection, he determined that the best solution was to have our production team install our Crawl Space Encapsulation System along with our SmartSump Pump to remove the water permanently and give them peace of mind knowing their crawl space will always be dry.  

No problem if your home is too small, or too big! This homeowner called and informed us of a musty smell coming from their crawlspace, and whenever our System Designer, Eddie Salido, went down there, he found that it would have a quick and easy fix!

Soon after, our Foreman, AJ Looney, went down into the crawlspace and laid down gravel around the door of the crawlspace to allow drainage, then installed our CleanSpace Vapor Barrier to ensure that the crawlspace stays dry and tidy!

This customer wanted a basic encapsulation for her crawlspace, so she called Fortress Foundation Solutions to come out and give her a free estimate. We sent out our System Designer, Caleb Stone, who did a thorough inspection of her crawlspace and gave her a quote for the encapsulation. Later, our Foreman Charlie Evans went out with his crew to install our SilverGlo Insulation on the walls, putting our Drainage Matting along the the floor with our CleanSpace Vapor Barrier on top of that. The client loved the new look of her crawlspace!

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!
