Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

This homeowner located in Charlottesville, VA contacted Fortress Foundation Solutions because they were receiving water in their crawl space, causing their floor joists to rot. The floors in their home had started to sag, so Fortress recommended that we install our CleanSpace Vapor Barrier along with our SmartJack Crawl Space Support System. 

SmartJacks provide solid support for sagging and undersized beams, restoring stability and straightness to sagging floor joists in a crawl space. Our crawl space repair system will ensure that your home has a stable crawl space that won't sink or sag.

This home in Charlottesville had walls that were bowing, concerning the homeowner. They reached out to Fortress for a permanent solution on stabilizing those walls.

Our System Designer, Scott Llewellyn, went out to assess this home and recommended installing our GeoLock Wall Anchor System.

The GeoLock anchor system permanently stabilizes your foundation wall and, in many cases, can straighten your wall back toward its original position. Heavy-duty earth anchors are embedded in stable soil away from your foundation wall, and are then connected to steel anchors with long, galvanized rods. Once tightened, the anchors will hold the wall securely in its current position without any further adjustment.

This house had cracking walls, bowing floors, and a dirty crawlspace. Fortress solved this problem by installing SmartJacks to stabalize the floor and stop the wall cracks. FOrtress also encapsulated the crawlspace with CleanSpace to keep the crawlspace clean and dry.

Fortress was able to solve this problem by installing CarbonArmor Straps to stabilize the foundation. Over time these straps can be tightened to straighten the wall.
