A homeowner near Chester Gap, VA, grew concerned when stair-step cracking in her basement wall developed into a long horizontal crack with bulging. She called Fortress Foundation Solutions for a free estimate. Our System Designer completed a thorough inspection offering a permanent solution with warranty. After her questions were answered, she chose to repair her foundation with GeoLock Wall Anchors. Toby Bryant and his experienced team soon arrived at her home. The GeoLock Wall Anchor rods were driven from a trench on the outside to inside the basement and secured to the wall with plates. Take a look at the wall plates now stabilizing the wall, locking it up tight! This homeowner now feels secure knowing her foundation is stable!
This homeowner in Stuart, VA called Fortress Foundation Solutions because they had water intrusion in their crawl space and floors in their home had started sagging down.
After explaining all the issues they were having over the phone, we sent one of our System Designers out to take a look! He recommended our SmartJack Crawl Space Support System. This system provides solid support for undersized beams and restores stability and straightness to sagging floor joists in a crawl space. We also installed our CleanSpace Vapor Barrier to assure them that their crawl space would stay dry!
The chimney of this home in Earlysville had started to pull away from the home due to settlement of the foundation. The homeowner reached out to Fortress Foundation Solutions to get that area of their home supported and stabilized.
Fortress went out and installed 3 Helical Piers to not only stabilize that chimney, but also lift it back to it's original position! Once installed the area will be backfilled and the piers will not be visible.
Fortress Foundation Solutions installed Smart Jacks in this crawlspace to keep the floors above from sagging. We also put up a Clean Space liner to keep out any moisture.
Fortress Foundation Solutions installed 4 SmartJacks under the back of an older home whose original supports were failing.
