Fortress Foundation Solutions Before & After Photos

This homeowner in Fulton, Maryland had an issue with the front porch cracking due to its foundation settlement. The homeowner wanted to restore the porch and ensure that it was safe from further issues caused by settlement. They called Fortress Foundation Solutions for a permanent solution. Our system designer prescribed our Helical Piers to stabilize the sinking porch. Helical Piers have helical plates welded to the pier shaft to help to pull the pier into the soil during installation and provide anchoring strength as the weight of the foundation or structural element is transferred to the pier. One of our crews soon went out to install the system. Once the porch was stabilized, we used our NexusPro Joint Sealant to fill in the cracks and restore the porch's aesthetic. The homeowners can no enjoy their porch again without worry!

Fortress Foundation Solutions installed a perimeter WaterGuard System, TripleSafe Sump Pump System with an external discharge, and installed GeoLock Wall Anchors for foundation stabilization. We were also able to use the GeoLock Wall Anchors to stabalize a retaining wall supporting the customer's driveway.

A home in Crewe, VA was having settlement problems with the foundation. The floors were sinking, the doors were sticking, and the ceiling and walls were cracking. Fortress solved these problems by installing two Supplemental Beams and several SmartJacks in the crawl space. 

This homeowner in Crewe called Fortress because they had noticed that the floors in their home had started sagging. 

After explaining all the issues they were having over the phone, we sent one of our System Designers out to take a look! He recommended our SmartJack Crawl Space Support System. This system provides solid support for undersized beams and restores stability and straightness to sagging floor joists in a crawl space. Fortress Foundation Solutions left this homeowner feeling much happier and safer in their own home!
