The crawl space of this home in Nathalie stayed damp and musty, and needed some help.

Fortress recommended that the best solution to this problem was to install a complete CleanSpace encapsulation, along with SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier.

Our CleanSpace vapor barrier is designed to permanently prevent moisture and outside air from getting into your crawlspace. Together, the vapor barrier and SaniDry will ensure that this crawlspace will stay clean and dry.

This homeowner in Halifax reached out to Fortress because they were tired of their basement flooding every time it rained heavily, and were looking for a permanent solution.

Our System Designer, Chris Guill, went out to assess the basement and determined that the best solution would be to install our WaterGuard XL System along the perimeter of the basement, along with a TripleSafe Sump Pump. 

Our WaterGuard System is designed to capture any wall or floor seepage before it reaches the basement floor, any water will then drain to the TripleSafe and be pumped out of the home. Together these products will ensure that this homeowner will never have to worry about a flooded basement again!

The basement of this home in Halifax had a problem with water intrusion, and also had some cracking and bowing in the cinder block walls. The homeowner reached out to Fortress for a solution on how to keep their basement dry, and also have those walls stabilized and supported.

Our System Designer, Scott Llewellyn, went out to assess this home and determined that the best solution would be to install our WaterGuard XL System along the perimeter of the basement, along with a SuperSump sump pump. He also recommended we install 9 power braces to stabilize the walls and prevent further bowing.

Our WaterGuard System is designed to capture any wall or floor seepage before it reaches the basement floor, any water will then drain to the SuperSump and be pumped out of the home. The PowerBrace system permanently stabilizes your home's foundation walls. Zinc-plated steel beams are custom-fit to your basement wall height and secured tight against your basement wall with brackets anchored to your basement floor and floor joists. PowerBrace's can be tightened over time, potentially reversing wall failure without any invasive drilling or digging on the property.

Job Stories From Halifax County, VA
Bowing Wall and Basement Waterproofing - Halifax,VA

This homeowner called Fortress with concerns of a bowing wall, and a flooding basement. Our System Designer was able to assess the property and develop a permanent solution for these homeowners. Power Braces were installed to stabilize the bowing wall. Our crew then installed our WaterGuard system and our Supersump sump pump. These both work together keeping the water out of the home. The final result was a stabilized wall and a water free basement.

Basement Waterproofing

This homeowner in Roanoke,VA called Fortress with concerns about a water coming into the basement. This water coming in also caused an unpleasant musty smell. Our System Designer,  was able to go out to the home and give these homeowners a piece of mind with a permanent solution. The best way to fix this issue was installing our WaterGuard system, along with our Triplesafe sump pump. Our Foreman, and his crew went out to the home and began to install these products. The crew began preparing the perimeter of the basement for the WaterGuard. Once the WaterGuard is in place, the crew then installed the Triplesafe sump pump. An outside discharge is also installed on the sump pump to allow the water to be pumped out of the basement.  We also followed in with drainage stone over top of the WaterGuard. This crushed stone allows the water to easily flow to the WaterGuard, and then to the sump pump. Once the system and the stone are laid, new cement is laid over the system to give it a finished look. The end result was a dry basement that would last years to come.

Foundation Repair - Clover,VA

This home in Clover had several stair-step cracks along the outside walls of the home. These cracks were cause by the house sinking and settling.

Fortress helped this family out by installing Push Piers along the outside of the the house to support and stabilize the foundation. 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.
