Before & After Photos

Observe the transformation we achieved on a block foundation in Great Cacapon, WV. The homeowner faced stair-step cracks and a severe 2-inch wall deflection, posing potential risks to the structural integrity of the home. To address these concerns, we expertly installed the PowerBrace™ System. These zinc-plated steel beams are custom-fitted and securely anchored, effectively stabilizing the foundation walls. As showcased in the after photo, this method not only halted further inward wall movement but also promised potential improvement over time, ensuring a stable, safe, and healthy home environment.

This customer called us to stabilize the main beam supporting her floor. We utilized our SmartJack system to ensure a lifetime of stability for her floors, and also performed a full encapsulation to transform this dark, dirty dugout basement into a clean, dry area!

At Fortress Foundation Solutions, we take pride in helping homeowners protect their properties from structural damage. Recently, a customer reached out to us with concerns about a leaning retaining wall at their home. Over time, soil pressure and environmental factors had caused the wall to shift, posing a risk to both the property and safety.

Understanding the urgency of the situation, we sent System Designer Riley to assess the damage. During the inspection, Riley carefully examined the wall’s condition and identified the best solution to restore its stability. After a thorough evaluation, he provided the homeowner with a detailed quote and repair plan to address the issue effectively.

To correct the leaning wall and prevent further movement, our team installed GeoLock wall anchors—a proven system designed to straighten and stabilize foundation walls over time. These heavy-duty anchors provide long-term support by counteracting the external pressure that caused the wall to shift in the first place.

After installing the GeoLock anchors, the retaining wall was significantly reinforced, restoring both its functionality and structural integrity. The homeowner now has peace of mind knowing their property is protected from further damage.
