Before & After

Supporting a foundation in Thurmont, MD

A homeowner named Colin was referred to Fortress by a radon company after concerns were raised about the home’s structural condition and history of water intrusion near the electrical panel. The previous owners had also noted issues with a bowing wall, and although the home already had some sort of sump pump there was another problem developing beneath the kitchen. A joist supporting the kitchen floor had begun to sag, creating uneven and weakened support beneath the living space.

 

To stabilize the floor system, Fortress installed 6 extra-tall SmartJacks along with 18 feet of supplemental beam. This solution provided additional support beneath the sagging area, reinforced the kitchen subfloor, and helped restore stability to the home.
