This homeowner called Fortress Foundation Solutions because they were receiving water coming in through the walls in their crawlspace. Our sales team was able to give this customer a permanent solution for this problem. We installed our CleanSpace liner as well as our Smart Sump to ensure they would no longer receive anymore water.

Our CleanSpace liners are vapor barriers specifically designed to keep out moisture and humidity. We installed our Smart Sump to collect any water that may accumulate.

Concrete Repair in Salem, Virginia

At a small daycare in Salem, owner Pam W. noticed that the concrete sidewalk leading to the front door had sunk, creating a trip hazard.

The job was done in just a few hours with minimal disruption to her business.

Concrete Repair in Salem, Virginia

A homeowner in Salem reached out to Fortress Foundation Solutions because they noticed the concrete around their driveway had started to sink, causing uneven surfaces and presenting potential hazards. They were understandably concerned about possible long-term damage and escalating repair costs if they didn't address the issue promptly. 

Following their initial call, one of our Customer Care Specialists promptly scheduled a home inspection appointment. During the inspection, our System Design Specialist observed the telltale signs of sunken concrete slabs and diagnosed the problem. Our team determined that the best solution was to lift and level the affected concrete using our advanced PolyLevel® system.

After the solution was agreed upon, our skilled production team composed of a foreman and dedicated installers arrived on site. By drilling pea-sized holes into the sunken slabs, we were able to strategically inject high-strength polyurethane foam beneath the concrete. As the foam expanded, it gently raised the slabs to their original position, ensuring a leveled and stabilized surface.

Completing the process with remarkable efficiency, the team cleaned up the job site, leaving no mess behind and no further disruption to the homeowner’s property. Through this thorough yet minimally invasive approach, we delivered a reliable and long-lasting solution. The finished job resulted in reinforced structural integrity and a safe walking surface, returning peace of mind to the homeowner while upholding our commitment to providing a remarkable customer experience. Visitors to our website can trust that our experienced team is fully equipped to handle similar concrete repair needs.

Foundation Repair in Salem, Virginia

A homeowner in Salem contacted Fortress Foundation Solutions concerned about their settling foundation. They noticed visible cracks in their walls and uneven floors, and they needed a solution to stabilize their home and prevent further damage. Understanding how unsettling these issues can be, our Customer Care Specialist scheduled a prompt inspection appointment to get to the bottom of the problem.

Our System Design Specialist arrived at the property to conduct a thorough inspection. The assessment revealed that the shifting soil beneath the foundation was the root cause of the settlement issues. After discussing our findings with the homeowner, we determined that our Helical Pier System was the most effective solution to stabilize and, if possible, lift the foundation back to its original position.

With a clear plan in place, our experienced production team started the installation process. The team worked diligently to insert the engineered steel piers deep into the stable, load-bearing soils below the home, carefully adding sections to achieve the necessary depth and capacity for optimal support. Each pier was securely connected to the foundation using sturdy steel brackets, effectively anchoring the home's weight to the solid ground beneath.

Upon completion, the home's foundation was stabilized, halting further settlement and restoring stability. The homeowner was relieved to see not only visible improvement but knowing their home's structural integrity was restored offered peace of mind. By choosing Fortress Foundation Solutions, the homeowner reclaimed their property value and quality of life with a dependable, long-lasting foundation repair.
