The basement of this home in Monroe had a bad problem with repeated flooding. The homeowner reached out to Fortress for a solution to their problem.

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 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 the homeowner will never have to worry about flooding again!

This home in Monroe had a sidewalk that was sinking and settling, becoming a tripping hazard.

Our System Designer, Chris Guill, went out and determined that our PolyLevel Injection System would be able to lift that area back up to it's original position.

The foreman for this, Brian Davis, went out and strategically drilled holes in the concrete where injection ports are then installed. Polyurethane foam is injected beneath the concrete to fill voids and raise the slab. The holes and control joints are then sealed.

Job Stories From Amherst County, VA
Waterproofing, Bowing Wall

The homeowners in Madison Heights +,VA called Fortress to get a second opinion on the complications they faced in their home. This home had a bowing wall and some water intrusion. Our System Designer was able to go out and inspect the home. We were able to not only come up with the best solution, but also the best price. Our Forman and his crew went to this home and installed our WaterGuard system, a Super Sump, and our SaniDry Sedona. These products together work to keep the basement free of water. Our crews also installed Carbon Armor strips on the wall to support the bowing wall. The final result was was not only a dry basement but also a stabilized wall that would not bow in anymore.

Basement Waterproofing - Madison Heights

This homeowner in Madison Heights, 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.
