Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

This homeowner gave Fortress a call because each time they would receive any rain in their area, their basement would too!

Our system designer, Chris Guill, went out to their home to do a complete inspection. After providing an estimate that included a full perimeter WaterGuard System along with a TripleSafe Sump Pump, this homeowner quickly agreed! 

Our WaterGuard System is the ideal choice when waterproofing a basement. This French drain system is installed below the floor slab, resting on top of the foundation footing, keeping the drainage system out of the "mud zone" where it could potentially get clogged. All water enters the WaterGuard flowing to the sump pump and is pumped out of the home. The TripleSafe includes three pumps - two for heavy rains and the third connected to a battery backup in case the power goes out. Now the basement is dry in all situations.

These homeowners in Hillsville, VA noticed a few concerning issues with their home. After rain water was making its way thought the foundation of the home. The foundation walls also began to bow inward and crack. After calling Fortress Foundation Solutions our System Designer was able to visit with the homeowners and provide a free estimate for a solution. 

The System Designer suggested our PowerBrace System to help stabilize the bowing wall, and our WaterGuard System to prevent the basement from getting anymore water. Our Forman and his crew installed both of these systems for these Hillsville residents. The final result was a dry basement and a stabilized foundation!  

This Vinton basement had water stains from repeated flooding. The old sump pump had stopped working and left the homeowners in a panic. Thankfully Fortress was able to solve this issue by installing a new TripleSafe Sump System with a full perimeter WaterGuard. Now the basement will never flood again!

Our System Designer, Scott Llewellyn, went out to assess this home and determined that the best solution would be to install our WaterGuard XL System along the perimeter of the basement, along with a SuperSump 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 SuperSump and be pumped out of the home. Together these products will ensure that the homeowner will never again have to worry about a wet basement!
