Before & After Photos

Mary and John of Jessup, MD, noticed their basement walls bowing more and more. There was a horizontal crack at the top of the basement wall. They called the foundation experts - Fortress Foundation Solutions! A System Designer met with them and provided a free estimate to permanently stabilize the walls: our Carbon Armor System. Soon a Fortress crew was onsite preparing the basement walls by grinding down strips. Next, heavy epoxy was applied to the walls and the carbon straps attached. ArmorLock brackets bind and secure the CarbonArmor straps to floor joists making the CarbonArmor solution fast, non-invasive, and ideal for quickly stabilizing bowing and leaning walls. These straps are 10-times stronger than steel, yet flexible enough to contour tightly against the basement wall. Now Mary and John sleep better at night knowing their walls are stabilized!

In Fairfax, VA, a homeowner faced a problem that many understand—a musty, wet basement impacting their home's safety. As seen in the before photo, moldy walls threatened comfort and health. This is more than a home improvement; it's about revitalizing safety and peace of mind. We stepped in to turn things around by installing our reliable WaterGuard®, coupled with the TripleSafe™ sump pump and CleanSpace® encapsulation systems. These solutions eradicated moisture issues, creating a healthy and dependable environment. Notice the transformation in the after photo—a stable, safe, and uplifting space.

We strive to fix every home with top of the line materials! This client called Fortress Foundation Solutions about water collecting in their basement. Our System Designer, Caleb Stone, went out to their home, found the water seeping into the basement through the walls, and designed a solution himself for the issue. When our Foreman, Andre Luck (better known as "Lucky"), and his crew went out to fix the issue, they used the CleanSpace Wall Systems on the walls, as well as our WaterGuard drainage solution on the floor below to ensure that any water that was collected drained to the TripleSafe Sump Pump, which was then transferred to the discharge line outside of the home.

Skylar completed a full inspection and presented the homeowner with a proposal and a quote. She was happy with both and decided to move forward with the work. When our Foreman, Alex, and his crew went out to fix the issue, they used our WaterGuard drainage solution on the floor below to ensure that any water that was collected drained to the TripleSafe Sump Pump, which was then transferred to the discharge line outside of the home.

This customer is very satisfied with the work and happy that water intrusion will no longer be an issue in her home!

In Wardensville, WV, a homeowner faced water intrusion in their basement, particularly through the underground portion of a finished wall. This problem stems from the house being built on a slope. To address this, we installed our WaterGuard system, a subfloor perimeter drainage solution, along with the TripleSafe sump pump. This combination works to effectively redirect water away from the home, ensuring a clean, dry basement space. As demonstrated in the after photo, the home is now stable and healthy, providing lasting protection against foundation seepage.
