This homeowner in Galax contacted Fortress with concerns about their home's foundation. Stair-step cracks is an indicator of foundation sinking and settling. System Designer, Chris Guill, went out for a full evaluation. He determined the home needed foundation repair. 

Our crew installed 10 Push Piers to lift and stabilize that foundation. Push Piers are installed next to the footings and attached with a heavy duty steel brackets. Soil is backfilled around the piers once stabilization and lifting is complete to finish the installation. 

This home in Toms Brook had foundation walls that were cracked, concerning the homeowner. They reached out to Fortress for a solution to stabilize and support their foundation.

Fortress went out and installed our PowerBrace System. The PowerBraces permanently stabilize 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 unique, patented design allows the system to be tightened over time, potentially reversing wall failure without any invasive drilling or digging on the property. This homeowner can now rest assured knowing that their foundation is stabilized!

These homeowners in Hillsville, VA noticed a few concerning issues with their home. After rain water was making its way thought the foundation of the home. The foundation walls also began to bow inward and crack. After calling Fortress Foundation Solutions our System Designer was able to visit with the homeowners and provide a free estimate for a solution.

Our Forman and his crew installed both of these systems for these Hillsville residents. The final result was a dry basement and a stabilized foundation!
