Nathan R. was getting ready to purchase a home near Oakton, VA. The home inspector found some foundation damage around the chimney. Nathan wanted to have it checked before purchasing the home; so he called Fortress Foundation Solutions. System Designer Santiago Garzon, our real estate expert, met with the potential home buyer. After an inspection, Santiago provided a free estimate for his recommendation - Push Piers. Push Piers are steel rods driven under the home's footer to provide stabilization and prevent further settlement. Nathan was then able to negotiate the price of the repair with the seller and purchase the home. After the closing, a Fortress crew completed the installation. Now Nathan can be confident knowing the foundation of his new home is secure!

Fortress dug a trench around the house, installed the Push Piers, then covered them back up. Pier installations are great for many homeowners because they are not visible after the installation.
This homeowner not only had flooding issues, but also had several foundation issues. There were cracks and seperations in the walls and the walls had begun to bow. The Fortress Team solved these problems by installing a full perimeter WaterGuard with a SuperSump Plus System. To solve the foundation issues, we installed six PowerBraces and ten CarbonArmor systems that will prevent any future foundation cracks and settlement.
This home in South Boston, VA had concerns about a bowing wall. They called Fortress to get the job done right. Our System Designer, Zach was able to go out to this home and give a free estimate. Once Zach was complete with his evaluation, he knew the best solution to this issue would be our GeoLock wall anchor system. This system helps to stabilize the wall. He also recommend for our crew to apply CleanSpace wall to this area to give the basement a brighter look!
