Heather called Fortress Foundation Solutions about water collecting in her basement. After setting an appointment, Paul, one of our expert system designers went out to the home and found water seeping into the basement through the walls. Paul completed a full inspection and presented the homeowner with a proposal and a quote. She was happy with both and decided to move forward with the work. When our Foreman, Travis, and his crew went out to fix the issue, they utilized our WaterGuard drainage solution on the floor below to ensure that any water that was collected drained to the TripleSafe Sump Pump, which was then transferred to the discharge line outside of the home.
This customer is very satisfied with the work and happy that water intrusion will no longer be an issue in her home!
This homeowner in Kents Store contacted Fortress Foundation Solutions because they had some concerns about their foundation. Their cinderblock walls had several cracks and the walls were bowing in some places.
Fortress solved this problem by installing our Push Piers. Push Piers feature a patent-pending external sleeve that strengthens the pier at the critical tension point below the bracket. They are installed next to the footings and attached with a heavy duty steel bracket. Concrete is used to fill the holes around the piers once stabilization and lifting is complete to finish the installation.
Customer in Berryville, Va called in complaining of basement water issues. Fortress installed Supersump + sump pump system with WaterGaurd floor drainage and Trench Drain to address water in the basement area of the home. This customer chooses to protect the full perimeter of the home to ensure that all the water would be caught and they would not have to deal with it in the future.
This crawl space in Berryville was damp and dirty from repeated flooding. There was an old sump pump installed that didn't work properly and needed to be replaced. Fortress came to this home and installed a CleanSpace Encapsulation, a SmartSump Crawl Space Sump Pump System, and a SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier. This crawl space is now clean and dry!
Madison H. of Summit Point, WV, reached out to Fortress Foundation Solutions after noticing the severe settling of the walkway to her front door. Over time, a significant tripping hazard had developed. System Designer Joe Katany was happy to meet with Madison, conducting an inspection and providing a same-day estimate. Ready for a safe front walkway, Madison agreed! Soon, the Fortress PolyLevel crew arrived at the home and began their work. They drilled small holes at measured intervals into the concrete, filling these holes with PolyLevel until the walkway was lifted to the desired height. Once leveled, the tiny holes were filled, and the sidewalk was restored to its original state. Now, Madison and her family can confidently walk on the sidewalk without the fear of tripping!
