Lynchburg, VA Basement Waterproofing

This Lynchburg, VA home had water coming into the finished basement with rain. The homeowner was concerned that there might be a more serious problem, and after searching online, found Fortress Foundation Solutions and decided to have one of our System Designers come out to evaluate their basement and give them a free estimate.

Fortress sent our Foreman Donovan and his crew out to do this job. The WaterGuard was installed along the basement walls and will capture any water seepage. Any water will then be channeled to the TripleSafe and from there it will be pumped out of the home and into the yard a safe distance away through an exterior discharge line.

This homeowner is very happy and is having no issues with water coming into their basement. The basement is now dry and will stay that way all year round!

Basement Waterproofing & Wall Support

This homeowner in Lynchburg, VA had concerns about their home. They had noticed after rain events water would puddle in the basement, causing a huge mess to clean up. Secondly, the homeowner had noticed cracking in the foundation walls. These walls had also began to bow inward. After calling the local experts here at Fortress, our System Designer Zach Bullock was able to go visit with the homeowners to provide a free estimate for a permanent solution!   

After Zach took a close look at the issues the homeowners were facing, he knew the best solution was our WaterGuard system and our PowerBraces. Zach explained that the WaterGuard system would go around the perimeter of the home and catch any water that came in. The water would then go to a sump pump where it would then go out of the home. Then, Zach explained why our PowerBraces were the best solution to help that bowing wall. PowerBraces are long steel beams that are anchored to the wall and help to stabilize the foundation that is failing. 

Our Forman, Brian Davis and his crew went out to this home to install these products. The crew began by prepping the area for the WaterGuard to be placed. Then the crew installed our TripleSafe sump pump. Once that was in place they began measuring and cutting the PowerBraces to fit the wall. Finally once the WaterGuard, TripleSafe and PowerBraces where in place, the crew laid fresh cement over the WaterGuard system for a clean finish to the system!

Basement Waterproofing - Lynchburg,VA


This homeowner in Lynchburg, VA called Fortress Foundation Solutions with concerns of water making its way into their basement. Water can seep through the foundation and into the basement through cracks in concrete or cinder block walls, through cracks in concrete floors, around basement windows, and through exterior access doors. Water coming into the basement creates the potential for musty, mildewed odors, high humidity, and mold growth. This can affect the air quality in the livable spaces of your home. You may notice musty odors on your first floor, or your home may feel humid and damp. After a thorough inspection of this homeowner’s basement, we developed a plan to address this homeowner’s concerns. First, we fastened CleanSpace, a heavy duty vinyl liner, to the basement walls and sealed all of the seams with a heavy-duty 4” wide vinyl tape.  The CleanSpace will keep any water or vapor entering through the basement walls from entering the basement and direct it into the drainage system. Next, we installed the WaterGuard Drainage System, sub-slab, along the perimeter of the basement. As part of the WaterGuard system, a Trench Drain was installed at the bottom of the steps from the basement’s outside access. This collects any water that makes its way into the basement and directs it to a sump pump.

The crew began preparing the perimeter of the basement for the WaterGuard. Once the WaterGuard is in place, the crew then installed the Triplesafe sump pump. An outside discharge is also installed on the sump pump to allow the water to be pumped out of the basement.  We also followed in with drainage stone over top of the WaterGuard. This crushed stone allows the water to easily flow to the WaterGuard, and then to the sump pump. Once the system and the stone are laid, new cement is laid over the system to give it a finished look. The end result was a dry basement that would last years to come.

This Lynchburg homeowner called Fortress Foundation Solutions for an expert’s opinion on the water coming through the walls and floor of the finished basement.  Our appointment center was able to schedule this homeowner with a time and day for a System Designer to come out and look. After a thorough inspection of the home, Chris, our System Designer decided that our Water Guard system was the best solution for this home.

 

On the installation day our Foreman, and his crew began to prep the area for the Water Guard system. They then laid the water guard around the perimeter of the home just below the footer. This allows water to flow through the guard to the sump pump. Our crew then installed a Super Sump, this sump pump allows the water to go out of the basement through a discharge line that is placed outside of the home. Once these products where in place they then filled in with crushed stone, and covered the area with cement for a clean finished look.
