This homeowner had both foundation and basement leaking problems. There was signifigant mold growth and water damage from repeated basement flooding. The basement wall was also cracked and bowing. To solve these issues, Fortress Foundation Solutions installed eight Power Braces and a WaterGuard with a SuperSump Plus System.
This homeowner located in Winchester, VA contacted Fortress because the walls in their basement had started to bow inwards and they were receiving water through the cracks. Fortress came up with a solution to prevent anymore water coming in and to assure the homeowner that their wall would not fail.
We installed our PowerBrace Foundation Wall Reinforcing System along with our Full Perimeter WaterGuard System. Our WaterGuard French Drain System assures the homeowner that their basement will stay dry all year around. PowerBraces can stop any further damage and potentially straighten the wall.

Tim E. of Bedford, VA, noticed stair step cracking in his basement, as well as, vertical cracks going up from the foundation of his home. He called Fortress Foundation Solutions to have the settlement checked out. After meeting with Zach Bullock, who provided a same-day estimate, Tim decided to have his foundation repaired. Foreman, David Bowers, was soon installing Push Piers. These steel piers are hydraulically driven under the foundation of the home, providing stabilization. Now Tim's foundation and home are permanently stabilized!
