In Roanoke, Daniel had begun noticing signs of foundation settlement throughout his home. Cracks were starting to appear, and sections of the structure no longer felt level, indicating movement beneath the foundation. Concerned the problem would continue to worsen, he contacted Fortress Foundation Solutions for a professional inspection.
After evaluating the home, we determined that foundation settlement was causing the structural issues. To stabilize the home and help prevent further movement, Toby and his crew installed eight Helical Piers around the affected areas of the foundation.
These piers are designed to transfer the weight of the home to deeper, more stable soil, providing long-term structural support and foundation stability. As shown in the after photos, the home is now properly reinforced and protected from continued settlement, giving Daniel confidence that his foundation is secure for the future.
A commercial property owner in Roanoke was dealing with a seriously compromised retaining wall supporting a parking lot. Over time, pressure from the soil behind the wall had caused noticeable movement and instability, creating concerns about the long-term safety and reliability of the structure above. With the retaining wall responsible for supporting a heavily used parking area, it was important to address the issue before the damage became more severe.
After evaluating the retaining wall, our team determined that permanent stabilization was needed to stop further movement and reinforce the structure. To secure the wall, we installed 14 GeoLock™ Wall Anchors along the affected section of the retaining wall.
GeoLock™ Wall Anchors are designed to stabilize failing walls by extending into stable soil beyond the pressure zone and permanently anchoring the structure in place. This system helped counteract the outside soil pressure while restoring strength and stability to the retaining wall supporting the parking lot.
Richard was experiencing foundation settlement at his home in Roanoke, Virginia, after sections of the foundation footing had cracked, causing one side of the home to begin sinking. Concerned about the structural stability of the home, he contacted Fortress Foundation Solutions for a free inspection.
Tyler and his crew stabilized the failing foundation by installing 4 Helical Piers. Due to limited access outside the home, the piers were carefully installed from the interior while minimizing disruption to the finished space. The foundation is now properly supported, helping prevent further settlement and providing Richard with long-term peace of mind.
Bobbie and Hollis noticed cracks forming throughout their Fieldale home, and several doors no longer opened and closed properly. After inspecting the foundation, we found that settlement had caused sections of the footing to sink, compromising the home's stability. Toby and his crew installed 8 Helical Piers to permanently stabilize the foundation and help prevent further settlement. The home is now properly supported, giving Bobbie and Hollis lasting confidence in the strength and stability of their foundation.
Mr. Jones was dealing with significant foundation settlement issues at his Collinsville home. During our inspection, we found severe movement that was compromising the stability of the foundation and required immediate attention to prevent further damage.
To permanently stabilize the home, Toby and his crew installed 13 Push Piers around the foundation. These piers provide deep, stable support and help prevent additional settlement. You can see in the after photo, the foundation is now reinforced and protected, giving Mr. Jones confidence that his home has long-term structural support in place.
