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!

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!
