Before & After Photos

This crawlspace in Burkeville had been sagging and moisture was also getting in, causing a problem for the homeowners. Fortress Foundation Solutions installed our Smart Jacks to support and level the floors above and keep them in one position. We also installed our a Clean space liner and a Smart Sump to catch any water and take it away from the home. We left the homeowner with a dry, sturdy crawl space and a smile on their face!

This homeowner in Kents Store contacted Fortress Foundation Solutions because they had some concerns about their foundation. Their cinderblock walls had several cracks and the walls were bowing in some places.

Fortress solved this problem by installing our Push Piers. Push Piers feature a patent-pending external sleeve that strengthens the pier at the critical tension point below the bracket. They are installed next to the footings and attached with a heavy duty steel bracket. Concrete is used to fill the holes around the piers once stabilization and lifting is complete to finish the installation. 

This house in Kearneysville had bowing and cracking walls. The problems were cause by the house sinking and settling over time. Fortress came out to this home and recommended PowerBrace Supports inside the basement and Push Piers on the outside. The PowerBrace Supports can be adjusted over time to straighten overtime. After installing the PowerBrace Supports and Push Piers, the homeowner felt much more secure in their home!

This homeowner in Falling Waters, West Virginia was concerned with the stability of an exterior brick wall. They noticed the wall beginning to lean away from the dirt is was supporting, along with stair step cracking, which is a common symptom of settlement. Knowing Fortress Foundation Solution's expertise in this area, they called for a solution. Our system designer went out and gave them a free estimate and presented a plan to solve their issue. Our crew then went out and installed our GeoLock Wall Anchor System to stabilize and secure the wall and to prevent further movement! The homeowner was very happy that to se their wall stabilized and strengthened! These before and after photos show what Fortress Foundation Solutions is capable of!
