Sump pumps matter in Potomac, MD
Challenge
A homeowner in Potomac, MD had a waterproofing system installed by Fortress Foundation Solutions several years ago. At the time, we recommended upgrading their sump pump to a TripleSafe™ system with battery backup, but the homeowner decided to keep their existing pump.
Unfortunately, during a power outage, the existing sump pump failed to operate, allowing water concerns to return. While the waterproofing system continued to perform as designed, the sump pump was unable to protect the basement when it was needed most.
Solution
The homeowner called Fortress back out and decided to move forward with our original recommendation: the TripleSafe™ sump pump system. We removed the outdated pump and installed a TripleSafe™ system complete with battery backup protection.
Now, the basement is protected by a complete Fortress waterproofing system designed to keep the space dry all the time - even during heavy storms and power outages.
