Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Chantilly, VA, called Fortress Foundation Solutions after dealing with water in their basement for 25 years! Getting older, they could no longer clean up the mess every time it rained. a skilled System Designer met with them offering a permanent solution. They agreed it was the correct course of action and Foreman Cope and crew was soon at their home with his crew installing a and a full perimeter waterproofing system using WaterGuard all tied to a TripleSafe Sump Pump which is 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!

Kristin, a homeowner in Reston, Virginia, called Fortress after seeing and smelling mold in their basement. Caleb came out and conducted an extensive evaluation, identifying groundwater intrusion as the source of the water. We removed the drywall and jackhammered the perimeter of the basement floor to install our WaterGuard® water management system, connecting it to a TripleSafe™ sump pump system to safely discharge the water far away from the foundation.

Homeowners in New Market, Maryland reached out to Fortress Foundation Solutions after noticing mold and signs of water intrusion behind their finished basement walls, as seen in the before photo.

We sent out one of our awesome System Designers to perform a full evaluation, and even without a hygrometer, the moisture intrusion was clearly apparent.

Our skilled foreman Nick and his crew were able to permanently waterproof the basement while minimizing disruption to the finished walls and flooring as much as possible. Now, the homeowners can confidently refinish their basement without concerns about mold growth or having to go through this process again.

Two weeks after moving into their dream home in Fairfax Station, this homeowner was greeted by an unexpected challenge—water intrusion in their basement following a bout of rain and snow. Instead of letting discouragement take root, they turned to us for a solution. With precision and care, we installed our WaterGuard® system, expertly channeled to guide unwanted water to safety and ensure their basement remains a welcoming, dry space. As you notice in the after photo, stability and peace of mind are restored, showcasing the transformative power of readiness and resilience.

In Vienna, Virginia, homeowner Anton started his day off on the wrong foot. He woke up before sunrise to get a workout in before work, but when he walked into his personal basement gym, he found water everywhere.

After the heavy rainstorm the night before, Anton knew he needed a permanent solution and reached out to Fortress to come out as soon as possible for a waterproofing estimate. He met with Paul and felt confident in what both Paul and Fortress had to offer.

Just three weeks later, Anton’s basement was professionally waterproofed and his basement gym was saved.
