Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

This home in Concord had foundation walls that were cracked, concerning the homeowner. They reached out to Fortress for a solution to stabilize and support their foundation.

Fortress went out and installed our PowerBrace System. The PowerBraces permanently stabilize your home's foundation walls. Zinc-plated steel beams are custom-fit to your basement wall height and secured tight against your basement wall with brackets anchored to your basement floor and floor joists. PowerBrace's unique, patented design allows the system to be tightened over time, potentially reversing wall failure without any invasive drilling or digging on the property.

This homeowner contacted Fortress with concerns that their home's foundation was settling. There was cracking and separating in the bricks and they wanted to get that stabilized.

Our System Designer, Scott LLewellyn, went out to assess this home and recommended that push piers be installed to lift and stabilize this foundation.

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. 

This homeowner located in Broadway, VA contacted Fortress Foundation Solutions because they were receiving water in their crawl space, causing their floor joists to rot. The floors in their home had started to sag, so our System Designer, Paul Heckman, recommended that we install our CleanSpace Vapor Barrier along with our SmartJack Crawl Space Support System. 

SmartJacks provide solid support for sagging and undersized beams, restoring stability and straightness to sagging floor joists in a crawl space. Our crawl space repair system will ensure that your home has a stable crawl space that won't sink or sag.

This homeowner contacted Fortress Foundation Solutions because the floors in there home were starting to sag and each time it rained, they would receive water in their crawl space. 

Fortress informed the customer that their home was in serious need of our SmartJacks Crawl Space Stabilizer. This system is an adjustable supplemental support system used for sagging floors. SmartJacks can also often lift failing floor joists or beams, restoring them to their original position. 

We also installed our CleanSpace Vapor Barrier along with our SmartSump to assure this homeowner that they would no longer receive water in their crawl space. 

This homeowner in Port Republic called Fortress because they had water intrusion in their crawl space and floors in their home had started sagging. 

After explaining all the issues they were having over the phone, we sent one of our System Designers out to take a look! He recommended our SmartJack Crawl Space Support System. This system provides solid support for undersized beams and restores stability and straightness to sagging floor joists in a crawl space. We also installed a complete CleanSpace encapsulation, a SmartSump sump pump, and a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier to assure them that their crawl space would stay dry!
