By installing our CleanSpace system, we transformed the damp area into a clean, dry environment, ready to accommodate safe storage needs.

Filling voids in Stafford, VA

In Stafford, Ms. Ruth had lived in her home for years. Over time, she started noticing the floor in her basement becoming unlevel and beginning to crack badly, as seen in the before photo. She researched concrete repair companies and found Fortress.

Troy was the system designer on call. He came out, met with Ms. Ruth, and got to work. Troy discovered voids underneath her concrete due to washout over time. He knew we had to fill the voids and put together a proposal that he and Ms. Ruth agreed on.

Ethan, our PolyLevel foreman, came out and executed Troy’s plan. He found the void pockets, drilled small dime-sized holes through the floor, and injected our poly foam underneath the slab. It compacted the soil, lifted the slab back up to level, and filled the voids, as seen in the after photo. Ethan sealed the holes and the cracks, and now Ms. Ruth’s basement is safe and stable again!

Front porch stoop repair in Boyds, MD

In Boyds, Maryland, homeowner Vivek had lived in this home for 5 years when they started noticing the front porch slowly sloping forward. Over time, a void began expanding underneath the stoop. Every time it rained, water would puddle in the area and eventually caused the washout and void formation seen in the before photo.

System Designer Joe came out to evaluate the issue and put together a solution. Ethan, our PolyLevel foreman, along with co-foreman Samuel, injected PolyLevel foam beneath the stoop. The foam compresses the soil underneath, fills the void, and lifts the stoop back toward its original position - as seen in the after photo.

 

Now, there are no more tripping hazards or unsightly sinking concrete outside of Vivek’s home, and the repair is backed by a 5-year warranty.
