This client was worried about moisture in her crawls pace, so she called Fortress Foundation Solutions, who sent Paul Heckman to her house. Paul did a thorough inspection of her crawl space, and gave her an estimate. A few days later, our Foreman, Charlie Evans, went out with his crew and installed our SilverGlo Insulation on the walls of the crawl space, our SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier in the corner, and our CleanSpace Vapor Barrier on the floors and walls. Our client was so grateful for her clean, dry crawl space!

Your Crawl Space should be an accessible area to your home! Fortress Foundation Solutions was able to make that possible at this home in Charlottesville, Virginia by fully Encapsulating the Crawl Space. We started by using our Water Drainage Matting to keep any water that may come up from the ground out of the crawl space. Next, we installed our Clean Space Vapor Barrier System and SilverGlo Insulation to keep dirt and critters from getting into the crawl space. Lastly, our Production Crew installed our Triple Safe Sump Pump System to redirect any water getting in through the walls back outside, and the SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier. This Crawl Space Encapsulation Process allows a clean and dry environment for these homeowners.

This homeowner contacted Fortress Foundatin Solutions because they had some concerns about their foundation. There was a huge crack running along the floor in there home and it looked like one side had started to sink down. 

Fortress solved this problem by installing our Push Piers. Push Piers feature a patent-pending external sleeve that strengthens the pier at the critical tension point below the bracket. They are installed next to the footings and attached with a heavy duty steel bracket. Soil is backfilled around the piers once stabilization and lifting is complete to finish the installation.

Charlottesville, VA SmartJack Installation

This homeowner in Charlottesville reached out to Fortress Foundations Solutions because the floors of their home were sagging, and they wanted to get them supported before it became a bigger foundation issue.

Our System Designer, Chris Guill, went out to assess this home and determined that the best solution for this sagging floor issue would be to install the SmartJack System. The SmartJack System permanently lifts and stabilizes existing beams and floor joists in the crawl space, lifting and leveling the floors of the home! With the SmartJack System, a hole is first excavated where the footing will be installed. Next, the galvanized steel columns are cut to the appropriate length, and then assembled and connected to the beam or floor joists. Lastly, the SmartJack System is tightened into place, stabilizing the beams and lifting those sagging floors. 

This homeowner can now be confident knowing that their home is permanently supported and stabilized. They are glad they chose Fortress Foundation Solutions to protect their home!

Basement Waterproofing - Charlottesville,VA

This homeowner in Charlottesville , VA called Fortress with concerns about a water coming into the basement. This water coming in also caused an unpleasant musty smell. Our System Designer,  was able to go out to the home and give these homeowners a piece of mind with a permanent solution.

The best way to fix this issue was installing our WaterGuard system, along with our Super sump, sump pump. Our Foreman, and his crew went out to the home and began to install these products. The crew began preparing the perimeter of the basement for the WaterGuard.

Once the WaterGuard is in place, the crew then installed the Super sump, sump pump. An outside discharge is also installed on the sump pump to allow the water to be pumped out of the basement.  We also followed in with drainage stone over top of the WaterGuard.

This crushed stone allows the water to easily flow to the WaterGuard, and then to the sump pump. Once the system and the stone are laid, new cement is laid over the system to give it a finished look. The end result was a dry basement that would last years to come
