This home was suffering from very early stages of wall failure. Some minimal bowing was found and we installed our CarbonArmor Wall Support System to prevent any further movement. CarbonArmor is a great, cost effective choice, when walls are suffering from 2 inches or less of deflection.
The foundation in this basement was bowing and had horizontal cracks along the walls. Fortress installed Carbon Armor straps along the wall to stabalize the foundation.
Jack J of Madison, VA had been living in His home for the past 30 years. Since moving in, the foundation had a small horizontal crack along the front-facing wall. Over the last 3 years, the crack had gotten worse and that wall had started to bow inward. Our system designer, Jamey Elder, recommended installing GeoLock earth anchors along the front-facing foundation wall and Jack agreed. Foreman Toby Bryant, and his crew installed 7 GeoLocks, securing this foundation wall and preventing any further damage.
This homeowner in Middletown reached out to Fortress Foundation Solutions because they had foundation walls that were cracking and bowing, and they were concerned about the stability of their foundation.
Fortress installed our PowerBrace System to permanently support and stabilize those foundation walls. PowerBraces can be tightened over time, potentially reversing wall failure.
This home in Winchester, Virginia had a front entrance that was badly cracking because it was starting to sink. Fortress solved this problem by installing several Push Piers to lift and stabilize the foundation. Fortress dug a trench around the house, installed the Push Piers, then covered them back up. Pier installations are great for many homeowners because they are not visible after the installation.
