Home repair in Manchester, MD

Challenge

In Manchester, MD, a homeowner hit a major roadblock while trying to turn their basement into a livable space. Groundwater seepage kept disrupting their plans, risking damage to the home and raising health concerns.

Worried about structural integrity and ongoing issues, they reached out to Fortress Foundation Solutions for help.

Solution

Our customer care team quickly scheduled a home inspection. Skylar, our System Designers performed a thorough evaluation and identified groundwater penetration as the root issue.

To solve the problem, we installed a full waterproofing system. This included a drainage solution that redirects water away from the basement, paired with a sump pump designed to handle heavy water volumes—even during power outages.

To further protect the home, we reinforced the foundation walls with a system that provides long-term structural support and prevents inward movement.

After a precise and efficient installation, the basement was completely transformed. The space is now dry, secure, and ready to be used as planned, giving the homeowner confidence in the safety and potential of their home.
