Before & After Photos

Leigh P. of Sterling, VA called Fortress Foundation Solutions after her sump pump was not taking care of the water in the basement and was creating high moisture levels. Bad odors from stagnant water would wander out of the open pump pit into the basement as well. She met with System Designer Paul Heckman, who completed an inspection and offered a same-day proposal. Ready for a permanent solution, Leigh agreed. Clarence Copeland 'Cope' and his crew installed a WaterGuard drainage system so all water entering the home flows to the Triple Safe sump pump. The Triple Safe sump pump has a closed lid so moisture and bad odors aren't released from the sump pump. Now Leigh has the dry and odor free basement she always wanted!

After a large storm in the area, James H. began to notice moisture in his basement block wall. James' father had been in the basement waterproofing industry, so he knew that this was not something to leave unattended. He asked his father who he would recommend in the area to do the work, and his father suggested Fortress. After calling to schedule an appointment, System Designer Chris Wilmouth went out to assess the issue. He created a custom solution for James' basement, including a WaterGuard System, SumpPump, Vapor Barrier, and SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier. After explaining all of these products and the work that would take place, James accepted the plan that Chris put together for his home. Later, Foreman Cope and his crew came to install. They were able to get the project done on time and leave the space clean and ready to be used again. James was so thankful at the end of this process for the peace of mind he now had that his basement would be dry for years to come!

Our most powerful sump pump, the TripleSafe has two pumps and a third that turns on if the power goes out. Now this couple can enjoy their home well into their retirement years!
