Peter T. called Fortress Foundation Solutions after his installed sump pump was not taking care of the water in his basement and was creating high moisture levels. He had tried to fix it himself, but his methods were not holding up. System Designer Danny Camunas completed an inspection and offered a same-day proposal. Ready for a permanent solution, Peter agreed. AJ Looney and his crew installed a WaterGuard drainage system so all water entering the home flows to the sump pump. The Triple Safe sump pump has a closed lid so moisture and bad odors aren't released from the sump pump. Now Peter has the dry basement he always wanted!
Our client noticed some moisture in her basement, and on her block walls specifically. She gave us a call, and we sent out System Designer Skylar Beverage to take a look at her basement needs. After a thorough assessment of her home's unique situation, Skylar advised waterproofing using a WaterGuard system. The project was then handed off to Foreman Gary Lambert, who installed the WaterGuard system with his crew quickly and efficiently. Now, our client in Springfield won't have to worry about excess water in her basement, and she can have peace of mind restored!
This homeowner in Brookeville reached out to Fortress Foundation Solutions because they had a recurring issue with water seeping into their basement with rain and they wanted a permanent solution to this problem.
To best solve this issue, Fortress went out and installed WaterGuard along the perimeter basement walls, along with a TripleSafe Sump Pump System. These products will work together to keep this basement dry by catching any water seepage before it ever reaches the basement floor, and then channeling that water to the TripleSafe where it will be pumped out of the home and into the yard through an exterior discharge line. This homeowner will never have to worry about a wet basement again!
Thomas S., who lives near Oilville, VA, reached out to Fortress Foundation Solutions. He was tired of water getting along the front wall of his basement and could no longer use the area for storage. The water was coming through the concrete block and flowing out onto the floor. When the water receded, a chalky white substance was left on the walls. Thomas met with a System Designer who provided the solution, a WaterGuard Drainage System with an Ultra 4 Sump Pump. The WaterGuard is a channel drainage system installed in a trench around the basement perimeter. Any water entering the basement flows through the WaterGuard directly to the Ultra 4 Sump Pump and is pumped out and away from the home. Now Thomas doesn't have to worry about his belongings becoming moldy or damaged - his basement is dry!
This homeowner contacted Fortress Foundation Solutions because they had noticed their wall in their basement starting to bow inwards. Fortress wanted to give this homeowner piece of mind by giving them a permanent solution to make sure their basement wall would not get any worse.
Fortress installed our CarbonArmor Wall Reinforcing System to assure this homeowner his wall would no longer bow inwards. These flexible carbon fiber fabric straps are up to ten times stronger then steel. This system requires no exterior excavation, installs quickly, and won't impact future basement finishing.
Fortress Foundation Solutions left this homeowner with a better piece of mind then when they first bought the home!
