Before & After Photos

This home owner called our office to see if we could help preserve "the bones" of their 1875 Victorian farmhouse. Our expert system designer, Skylar, was sent to do a complete and free evaluation.

Skylar quickly helped find a solution and our superintendent Nick took a few crews over to the property to "forever" brace the foundation with our EverBrace wall restoration system. The home owner can now continue the renovations knowing the foundation is secure for many, many more years to come!

This homeowner in Tomsbrook,VA called Fortress Foundation Solutions with concern about a wall that was beginning to bow inward. Our System Designer was able to go out to this home and provide a permanent solution. Our Foreman,and his crew went to install the following products that were suggested by our System Designer. This solution included Power Braces. Power Braces help to support a weakened wall. This product prevents the wall from collapsing any further. 

Sarah B. of Frederick, Maryland called Fortress Foundations with the concern of her bowing barn wall. The cracks along the wall were also a major concern for her. Skylar was quickly sent out to inspect the problem. He determined the solution was to install Power Braces to secure the wall and prevent further movement. Sarah B. was relieved to have a solution and be able to save her barn from falling in.

In Marion, Kelly was dealing with serious structural issues both inside and outside the home. A basement wall had begun bowing inward due to pressure from the surrounding soil, while signs of foundation settlement were becoming increasingly noticeable around the exterior. Cracks, shifting, and structural movement throughout the home made it clear that immediate stabilization was necessary.

Following a full inspection, our team developed a comprehensive repair plan to address both the bowing wall and the settling foundation. Toby and his crew installed six PowerBrace™ beams along the basement wall to stabilize the structure and stop further inward movement.

To permanently support the settling foundation, the crew also installed nine Push Piers and six Helical Piers around the exterior of the home. These systems were designed to stabilize the foundation and help prevent additional settlement over time.

As shown in the after photos, the home is now fully reinforced and structurally secure. Kelly can now enjoy peace of mind knowing the foundation has been professionally stabilized with long-term support solutions in place.

Notice in the before photo how the walls in this Hardy home were beginning to bow inward, compromising the structural integrity due to foundation issues. The homeowner contacted us to address this concern. We installed the innovative PowerBrace System to reinforce the failing walls. Our zinc-plated steel beams, custom-fitted to the basement's height, are tightly secured with stable anchors. This straightforward solution effectively stabilized the walls and provided permanent support without invasive procedures. Fortress Foundation Solutions ensured this Hardy residence’s foundation is reliable and secure.
