Fortress Foundation Solutions Before & After Photos

A homeowner near West Friendship, MD, called Fortress Foundation Solutions about a crawl space encapsulation needing more storage space for a growing family. Their crawl space was dark, damp, musty and hard to access! System designer, Zack Bullock, was happy to meet with them, explain the encapsulation products and provide a free, same-day estimate. Ready to move forward, they agreed. Foreman, Travis Farmer and his crew were soon onsite installing drainage matting, CleanSpace vapor barrier, and a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier to keep things dry. Now this crawl space is dry and the homeowner can enter the clean and bright area for loads of added storage space!

Luke G. of Spencerville, MD, needed some work done on his crawl space. There were soft spots in his floors and he knew there was water in his crawl space damaging the joists. He called Fortress Foundation Solutions. Skylar Beverage, System Designer, was immediately able to see damage done by years of moisture and wetness - wood rot and mold! He offered Luke a same day proposal that was much less than a competitor and Luke agreed. Soon foreman, Warren Dickerson, was onsite installing a Smart Sump sump pump and drainage system to get rid of the water. Next, the SilverGlo insulation, Drainage Matting and CleanSpace vapor barrier sealed the crawl space. Finally, the SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier was installed to keep the humidity low. Now Luke doesn't have to worry about moisture causing future damage to his floors. Her crawl space is clean, dry and healthy!

This homeowner near Clarksville, MD, reached out to Fortress Foundation Solutions when the water entering her basement became increasingly problematic. System Designer Eddie Salido met with her, explained the solution Fortress could provide, and offered her a same-day estimate. Eager to reclaim the use of her basement, she agreed. Shortly after, Clarence Copeland (Cope) and his crew were on-site installing a WaterGuard drainage system, Triple Safe Sump Pump, and a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier. Now, any water entering the home is drained to the Triple Safe and pumped out. The SaniDry dehumidifier maintains low moisture levels in the basement, reducing the risk of mildew and eliminating musty odors. Happy to be able to use their basement again, Fortress loves to help our customers have safe and healthy homes!

This homeowner in Fulton, Maryland had an issue with the front porch cracking due to its foundation settlement. The homeowner wanted to restore the porch and ensure that it was safe from further issues caused by settlement. They called Fortress Foundation Solutions for a permanent solution. Our system designer prescribed our Helical Piers to stabilize the sinking porch. Helical Piers have helical plates welded to the pier shaft to help to pull the pier into the soil during installation and provide anchoring strength as the weight of the foundation or structural element is transferred to the pier. One of our crews soon went out to install the system. Once the porch was stabilized, we used our NexusPro Joint Sealant to fill in the cracks and restore the porch's aesthetic. The homeowners can no enjoy their porch again without worry!
