Side Walk Safety

This homeowner in Leesburg, Virginia was concerned about the uneven sidewalk leading to the front door. The homeowner was worried about the residents and visitors tripping over the sinking sidewalk. The homeowner gave Fortress Foundation Solutions for a free estimate and a permanent solution. Our system designer, Riley Ethier, informed the homeowner that the sidewalk was sinking due to natural soil erosion and settlement underneath the concrete. To remedy the situation, Riley proposed our PolyLevel system as the permanent solution. PolyLevel is an expanding polyurethane foam that is injected beneath the concrete to fill the gaps caused by soil erosion and raise and stabilize the concrete surface. Tim Gregorin took our PolyLevel rig and fixed this sidewalk! Once the PolyLevel Foam had stabilized and leveled the concrete, Tim sealed the joints with our NexusPro Joint Sealant. NexusPro prevents water from getting under the concrete where is can freeze and expand to cause more harm. This homeowner was elated to have peace of mind and the safety of the home restored!

Filling voids in Stafford, VA

In Stafford, Ms. Ruth had lived in her home for years. Over time, she started noticing the floor in her basement becoming unlevel and beginning to crack badly, as seen in the before photo. She researched concrete repair companies and found Fortress.

Troy was the system designer on call. He came out, met with Ms. Ruth, and got to work. Troy discovered voids underneath her concrete due to washout over time. He knew we had to fill the voids and put together a proposal that he and Ms. Ruth agreed on.

Ethan, our PolyLevel foreman, came out and executed Troy’s plan. He found the void pockets, drilled small dime-sized holes through the floor, and injected our poly foam underneath the slab. It compacted the soil, lifted the slab back up to level, and filled the voids, as seen in the after photo. Ethan sealed the holes and the cracks, and now Ms. Ruth’s basement is safe and stable again!
