This dirty crawl space in Scottsville, VA needed some help! It was moldy and the insulation was falling down due to the high moisture levels. Fortress solved these issues by installing a CleanSpace Encapsulation, a SmartSump Crawl Space Sump Pump System, and a SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier to ensure the crawl space would stay clean and dry.
This home in Scottsville 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!
Ray B. of Scottsville, VA reached out to Fortress about the horizontal crack in his basement wall. Looking to sell the home, he knew potential buys would walk away from a home with a compromised foundation! Fortress was able to respond quickly by sending out Zach Bullock, system designer, to provide a free estimate. Ray agreed and foreman, Warren Dickerson, was on the job installing the solution - PowerBraces. These steel I-beams are secured to the joists above the wall with steel brackets. This system reinforces the wall stopping any further bowing. Now this Scottsville, VA home is ready to go on the market!
Mary S. of Purcellville, VA was ready to put her house on the market. However, prospective buyers had commented on the walkway - it was oddly tilted away from the home. She called Fortress Foundation Solutions for help. System Designer, Danny Camunas, introduced the benefits of our PolyLevel Injection Foam. This foam lifts and levels concrete quickly and Mary was ready! Foreman, Tim Gregorin and his crew fixed Mary's sidewalk. Now it is level and ready for this home to bring top dollar!
