Crawl Space Encapsulation & Basement Waterproofing in Bristow, VA

At Fortress Foundation Solutions, we're all about making sure your home stays dry, safe, and sound. Let me tell you about a recent basement waterproofing job we completed in Bristow, VA, that perfectly exemplifies our commitment to solving homeowners' problems. The story began when a homeowner noticed their beautifully finished basement starting to show signs of water damage. Understandably worried about the potential harm to their home and the health risks associated with damp environments, they reached out to us. Our Customer Care team quickly set up an inspection to delve into the issue. Upon visiting their home, our System Design Specialist conducted a thorough assessment and diagnosed the root cause of the water intrusion. The solution? A comprehensive waterproofing system that included our WaterGuard drainage system, the TripleSafe Sump Pump, and our CleanSpace wall system. Each product plays a crucial role: the WaterGuard effectively channels water to the TripleSafe Sump Pump, ensuring it's efficiently expelled from the basement, while CleanSpace creates a vapor barrier that protects against humidity and wall leaks. Our skilled production team sprang into action, carefully installing each component of the system. Beyond merely fixing the problem, they made sure to maintain a tidy work area, minimizing disruption to the homeowner's life. The outcome was a resoundingly dry and transformed basement. The homeowner was ecstatic, not only about the reclaiming of their space but also the peace of mind knowing their foundation problems were resolved, backed by our reliable and lasting solution. In the end, it's just another day at Fortress Foundation Solutions, but for our happy homeowner in Bristow, VA, it's the beginning of many worry-free days enjoying their dry and safe basement.

t Fortress Foundation Solutions, we recently had the opportunity to help a homeowner in Bristow, VA, who was dealing with the frustrating issue of squeaking and bouncy floors. Understanding how unsettling and concerning these signs can be for any homeowner, we were eager to restore their peace of mind and the integrity of their home's foundation. Upon the homeowner's call, our customer care team promptly scheduled an inspection to dive into the heart of the issue. Our System Design Specialist visited the home, undertaking a comprehensive inspection to pinpoint the underlying causes of the floor's unsettling behavior. It was decided that the ideal solution to provide the stable support the home needed was the installation of SmartJack. SmartJack is a high-strength, adjustable steel pier designed to halt settling and even raise the sinking floors back to their original position, providing immediate and durable stabilization. Our talented production team, comprising our skilled foreman and dedicated installers, set to work with efficiency and attention to detail, ensuring the job was performed correctly and cleanly. By the end of the installation, the homeowner's floors were stabilized, putting an end to the squeaks and bounces that had been causing concern. The homeowner was thrilled with the outcome.

When a homeowner in Bristow, VA, noticed that the concrete at their garage door was sinking and causing uneven surfaces, they knew they had to take action. Understanding the hassle and potential dangers of uneven concrete, they reached out to us, Fortress Foundation Solutions, for help. As a team, we pride ourselves on providing a remarkable customer experience alongside reliable, long-lasting solutions to home problems, no matter how big or small. Upon contact, our friendly Customer Care team promptly scheduled a home inspection. A System Design Specialist from our sales team then visited the homeowner to assess the situation. They discovered that indeed, the concrete slabs by the garage door had sunk, likely due to compacting soils and normal wear and tear over time. We recommended a two-fold solution: PolyLevel and NexusPro—innovative products designed for concrete lifting, leveling, and sealing. Our PolyLevel process involves injecting a structural grade polymer beneath the concrete to raise it back to its original position, effectively fixing the uneven surface without the mess of traditional mud jacking. Then, NexusPro was applied to seal the joints and cracks, preventing future water infiltration and offering a long-term, durable fix. The homeowner was delighted by how quick and non-invasive the entire process was. From the initial call to project completion, our priority was making sure the homeowner was informed and comfortable with each step. In just a day, the concrete by the garage was safely and efficiently lifted to its original position, and the surfaces sealed, ensuring no future issues. Through our fast, effective solution, ease, and professionalism throughout the project, we restored not just the homeowner's property but gave them peace of mind. They were impressed with our team's dedication to ensuring a stress-free, seamless experience.
