Before & After

This property in Smithsburg had a porch that had sunken and was uneven with large cracks.
Our System Designer went out and determined that our PolyLevel Injection System would be able to fix this problem.
The foreman went out and strategically drilled holes in the concrete where injection ports were installed. Polyurethane foam is injected beneath the concrete to fill voids and raise the slab. The holes and control joints are then sealed. NexusPro Crack Repair was used to seal all cracks and joints.
Tom and Kelly noticed their sidewalk dropping over several years. Recently, drainage issues had become a problem with water coming in where the slab had pulled away. They called Fortress Foundation Solutions for a free estimate! A Fortress System Designer met with them completing an inspection and offering a solution. He recommended our PolyLevel system to lift and level the sidewalk back to its original position. Tom and Kelly were ready to go for it. Soon Tim Gregorin and his PolyLevel crew were onsite raising up the sidewalk. Now Tom and Kelly don't have to worry about water coming into their home any more.

Matt, a homeowner in Gainesville, Virginia, had started noticing signs of water coming from behind his insulated but unfinished concrete basement walls. After pulling the insulation back, he discovered dampness along with a thin vertical crack in the corner of the concrete wall, as seen in the before photo.
He reached out on social media looking for recommendations and came across Fortress Foundation Solutions. We sent out Danny, one of our experienced system designers, to complete a thorough evaluation. After inspecting the issue, Danny knew exactly what solution the home needed - a FlexiSpan wall crack repair system.
FlexiSpan is a flexible crack repair system as seen in the after photo designed to seal leaking wall cracks while still allowing for natural wall movement over time. The system is tied into a small section of WaterGuard drainage installed above the footer beneath the floor, allowing any future water seepage to safely drain away instead of entering the basement.
