Fortress Foundation Solutions Before & After Photos

In the Fisher, WV home featured here, sagging floors were a major concern due to weakened crawl space supports. The before photo shows the unsettling dip often caused by compromised floor joists. To resolve this and ensure long-term stability, we employed our expert foundation repair products—the SmartJack® System and CleanSpace® encapsulation system. Notice in the after photo how the galvanized steel columns from the SmartJack® System effectively lifted the floors towards their original alignment. The CleanSpace® encapsulation ensures a dry, healthy crawl space, enhancing the overall foundation quality and safety of the home.

This homeowner was eager to repair their sinking front porch. Fortress went out and found that the footing under the home had broken, causing the porch to settle. We installed several Push Piers under the footing of the home to prevent any further dropping.

Diana T. was looking to invest in a local small business, but there was one problem. Water was coming into the crawl space during heavy rains. She called Fortress Foundation Solutions after hearing good things from a friend.

A System Designer met with Diana, inspected her crawl space and provided a free estimate for an encapsulation. Soon a Fortress crew was onsite installing drainage matting, CleanSpace vapor barrier, and a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier. The CleanSpace is in place to seal the home from the damp earth. The final step is the SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier. It removes moisture from the air keeping the crawl space dry. Now, the crawl space is clean, dry and Diana knows it will keep this business safe.

Customer in Ringgold, Va was experiencing water entering the basement and water vapor/humidity issues. Fortress Foundation Solutions installed a full perimeter WaterGuard system with a TripleSafe Sump Pump System to address the water entering the basement. The CleanSpace wall system and Sedona Dehumidification System was added to address the water vapor/moisture issues.

This homeowner called Fortress with a leaky basement and bowing walls. To solve this problem, Fortress installed six Power Braces, two TripleSafe Sump Systems with a full-perimeter WaterGuard, and a Trench Drain by the basement door. The basement will now stay dry and the walls will never bow in again!
