Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Bergton, VA was growing increasingly worried as one of their basement walls began to show serious signs of failure—deep horizontal cracks, bowing, and visible shifting. It was clear that the wall wasn’t just damaged; it was structurally compromised. They reached out to Fortress looking for a permanent solution that would truly restore strength and safety to their home.

After a detailed inspection, our System Designer determined that the damage had progressed beyond the point where standard reinforcement systems could help. We recommended our EverBrace™ Wall Repair System, designed specifically for severely failing foundation walls.

Our crew got to work by installing a series of steel corrugated panels directly against the damaged wall. These panels were anchored with heavy-duty I-beams and connected to the foundation slab and framing above, transferring the load of the home from the failing wall to the new support system. The EverBrace system essentially “rebuilds” the wall from the inside—without the need for a full tear-out or exterior excavation.

With EverBrace in place, the wall was fully stabilized and structurally sound once again. The homeowner no longer had to worry about collapse or worsening damage. The basement was safe, secure, and protected for the long haul. EverBrace gave this homeowner a peace-of-mind solution that restored both the strength and value of their home.

Fortress Foundation Solutions installed four SmartJacks under the back of an older home whose original supports were failing.
