After a large storm in the area, James H. began to notice moisture in his basement block wall. James' father had been in the basement waterproofing industry, so he knew that this was not something to leave unattended. He asked his father who he would recommend in the area to do the work, and his father suggested Fortress. After calling to schedule an appointment, System Designer Chris Wilmouth went out to assess the issue. He created a custom solution for James' basement, including a WaterGuard System, SumpPump, Vapor Barrier, and SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier. After explaining all of these products and the work that would take place, James accepted the plan that Chris put together for his home. Later, Foreman Cope and his crew came to install. They were able to get the project done on time and leave the space clean and ready to be used again. James was so thankful at the end of this process for the peace of mind he now had that his basement would be dry for years to come!
A homeowner near Chantilly, VA, called Fortress Foundation Solutions after dealing with water in their basement for 25 years! Getting older, they could no longer clean up the mess every time it rained. System Designer Chris Wilmouth met with them offering a permanent solution. Clarence Copeland 'Cope' was soon at their home with his crew installing our basement waterproofing system, including a TripleSafe Sump Pump. Our most powerful sump pump, the TripleSafe has two pumps and a third that turns on if the power goes out. Now this couple can enjoy their home well into their retirement years!
In Chantilly, VA, the homeowner faced excess moisture and unpleasant odors escaping from a dirt crawl space, impacting their home's air quality and safety. As shown in the before photo, these challenges often invite mold growth and structural instability. Our team at Fortress Foundation Solutions effectively tackled these issues by installing our complete CleanSpace system with Drainage Matting and SilverGlo insulation. The addition of a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier provides ongoing humidity control. Now, the after photo demonstrates a clean, dry, and stable crawl space, ensuring a healthier home environment.
Fortress Foundation Solutions installed a series of GeoLock Wall Anchors to permanantely stabalize this customer's home.
This homeowner was selling the home and the home inspection said the moisture level was high.
Our System Designer, Jordan Alltop went out to their home to evaluate the situation they were having. He concluded that the crawl space would need a complete encapsulation.
With a plan set, Nick Mori and his production team came to the home and installed Drainage Matting, our CleanSpace Vapor Barrier.
