Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

The basement of this home in Charlottesville had bad water staining from years of repeated flooding. The homeowner reached out to Fortress to see what could be done to get their basement waterproofed.

Our System Designer, Scott Llewellyn, went out to evaluate this home and recommended installing our WaterGuard XL System along the perimeter of the basement, along with our CleanSpace Wall System, and a TripleSafe sump pump.

Our WaterGuard System is designed to capture any wall or floor seepage before it reaches the basement floor, any water will then drain to the TripleSafe and be pumped out of the home. These products will work together to ensure that this homeowner will never again have to worry about a flooded basement!

This homeowner came to Fortress Foundation Solutions with severe water damage from repeated flooding.The damage was so extensive that the homeowner could not safely walk down their basement stairs. The Fortress Team solved this issue by installing a full perimeter WaterGuard with a TripleSafe Sump System. We also installed CleanSpace Wall Liner and a TrenchLock system to help release radon gas. Finally, we replaced the stairs so the basement would be safe to go into.

This homeowner had water damage throughout their basement due to repeated flooding. Fortress Foundtion Solutions solved this problem by installing a WaterGuard with a TripleSafe Sump System. We also installed an ice guard to ensure that the basement would stay dry during every season.

Will G. of Charles Town, WV wanted to finish his basement, however water was 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 her 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, Will knows his basement will stay dry!

Chris L. called Fortress Foundation Solutions after hearing great things from a friend. His stone foundation leaked leading to mold and musty smells. A System Designer, met with him, explained the solution Fortress could provide, and offered him a same-day estimate. Eager to reclaim the use of his basement, he agreed. Shortly after, a crew was on-site installing a WaterGuard drainage system, CleanSpace vapor barrier, and a Triple Safe Sump Pump. Now, any water entering the home is drained to the Triple Safe and pumped out. Happy to be able to use his basement again, Chris is recommending Fortress to other friends.
