Before & After Photos

This homeowner in Bassett, VA called Fortress Foundation Solutions with concerns about the foundation of the home. The homeowners noticed a stair stepped crack in the wall of the basement. The crack had a gap and had began to bow inward. Our System Designer was able to go out to this home and provide an estimate for a solution. The System Designer suggested our PowerBrace system. PowerBraces help to stabilize the wall and over time get the wall corrected to the original placement.   

This homeowner had a few large cracks in their basement as well as a flooding issue. Fortress Foundation permanently fixed the cracks by installing the FlexiSpan Wall Crack Repair System. Then, Fortress installed a full perimeter WaterGuard with a TripleSafe Sump System to ensure that the basement would never flood again.

This basement in Charlottesville had a bowing wall with cracks that were allowing water to leak in. Fortress solved this issue by installing several CarbonArmor  Straps along the wall to stabilize the foundation.

This home in Charlottesville had several stair-step cracks along the outside walls of the house. These cracks were cause by the house sinking and settling. Fortress helped this family out by installing several 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.

This homeowner in Charlottesville called Fortress Foundation Solutions because they had water intrusion in their crawl space, and the floors in their home had started to sag. 

After explaining all the issues they were having over the phone, we sent one of our System Designers, Scott Llewellyn, out to take a look. He recommended our SmartJack Crawl Space Support System, along with a SmartSump sump pump.

This system provides solid support for undersized beams and restores stability and straightness to sagging floor joists in a crawl space. The sump pump will work to keep the crawl space dry, preventing future water damage.
