Fortress Foundation Solutions Before & After Photos

Daniel J. reached out to Fortress Foundation Solutions after discovering standing water and moisture beginning to damage his wooden floor joists. Moisture-saturated insulation was also falling down in his crawl space. How could this be happening? He had laid down plastic over the ground and thought his crawl space would be protected. Many people don't think about the effects moisture has as it rises from the ground under their homes. If left untreated, the moisture will cause thousands of dollars' worth of damage in the future. Our Fortress System Designers help educate customers on protecting their home by providing printed materials, using video media, through conversation, and of course, providing a free estimate for repair. Daniel's crawl space needed EZ Flow drainage, a Smart Sump Sump Pump, CleanSpace Vapor Barrier, and a SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier. EZ Flow directs groundwater to the Smart Sump, which pumps the water outside the home. The CleanSpace Vapor Barrier seals off the home from the damp/wet ground below. The SaniDry Sedona removes excess moisture, keeping the area dry and protecting the wood. Daniel's home is his biggest asset. Why wouldn't he want to protect it with his custom solution from Fortress Foundation Solutions?

Buck A. reached out to Fortress Foundation Solutions after the settling of his driveway. Over time, a significant tripping hazard had developed. A System Designer was happy to meet with Buck, conducting an inspection and providing a free estimate. Ready for a safe driveway, Buck agreed! Soon, the Fortress PolyLevel crew arrived at the home and began their work. They drilled small holes at intervals into the concrete, filling these holes with PolyLevel until the slab was lifted to the desired height. Once leveled, the tiny holes were filled, and the driveway was restored to its original state. Now, Buck and his family can confidently use the driveway without the fear of tripping!

Steve N. reached out to Fortress Foundation Solutions after discovering mold and mildew on the woodwork, bugs and spider webs, falling down, moisture-saturated insulation, and stinky, musty smells. He had laid down plastic over the ground and thought his crawl space would be protected.

Our Fortress System Designers help educate customers on protecting their home by providing printed materials, using video media, through conversation, and of course, providing a free estimate for repair. Steve's crawl space needed drainage matting, SilverGlo insulation, a Smart Sump Sump Pump, and a CleanSpace Vapor Barrier. The SilverGlo is installed on the walls and insulates to keep the home warm in winter and cool in the summer. The Smart Sump pumps excess water outside the home. The CleanSpace Vapor Barrier seals off the home from the damp/wet ground below. When Steve looks into his crawl space now, it is clean, dry and he knows his home is protected!

A homeowner near Chester Gap, VA, grew concerned when stair-step cracking in her basement wall developed into a long horizontal crack with bulging. She called Fortress Foundation Solutions for a free estimate. Our System Designer completed a thorough inspection offering a permanent solution with warranty. After her questions were answered, she chose to repair her foundation with GeoLock Wall Anchors. Toby Bryant and his experienced team soon arrived at her home. The GeoLock Wall Anchor rods were driven from a trench on the outside to inside the basement and secured to the wall with plates. Take a look at the wall plates now stabilizing the wall, locking it up tight! This homeowner now feels secure knowing her foundation is stable!

This customer came to Fortress Foundation Solutions with serious water damage and a cold, flooding basement. Fortress addressed these issues by installing a full perimeter WaterGuard with a TripleSafe Sump System, Rim Tight Insultion, and Mold-X2 Stain Remover.
