Before & After Photos

This homeowner in Crewe called Fortress because they had noticed that the floors in their home had started sagging. 

After explaining all the issues they were having over the phone, we sent one of our System Designers out to take a look! He recommended our SmartJack Crawl Space Support System. This system provides solid support for undersized beams and restores stability and straightness to sagging floor joists in a crawl space. Fortress Foundation Solutions left this homeowner feeling much happier and safer in their own home!

In Upperville, VA, notice in the photo how the homeowner faced a foundation wall beginning to shear inward—a situation posed serious structural risks. Our team at Fortress Foundation Solutions resolved this problem by expertly installing GeoLock Channel Anchors. This solution not only prevents further wall movement, but also provides the capability to straighten the wall over time during dry seasons. As illustrated in the after photo, the stability and integrity of the foundation walls were effectively restored, reflecting our commitment to safeguarding both property value and peace of mind.

This customer called us to do repairs on their failing basement wall. The wall was crumbling and quickly loosing its structural integrity. System Designer, Eddie, went out and proposed the use of our EverBrace Wall Restoration System to fully stabilize the failing wall. Foreman Toby and his crew arrived and the job site and installed the system with no issues. 

This homeowner wanted to install new flooring in their Powhatan home, but had to address the sagging floors first. Part of their floor was being held up by a tree trunk! Chris Wilmouth, System Designer, came out to do a full inspection and provide a free estimate. Foreman, Warren Dickerson, who has lots of crawl space experience, came out with his crew to install Smart Jacks. These jacks provide stabilization for the floor joists to help sagging floors. Soon the floors were stabilized and ready to receive new flooring!

Joe W. of Powhatan, VA called Fortress Foundation Solutions after noticing his floors sagging. System Designer, Zack Bullock, went out to meet with Joe, inspect the crawl space and provide a free estimate. Zach proposed Smart Jacks to lift the floor and an encapsulation to protect the floor joists from further moisture damage. Joe agreed! Foreman, Travis Farmer, was assigned to the job. He set the footers, installed the Smart Jack post under the beam, and lifted until the floor was stabilized. The final step was to install CleanSpace vapor barrier and a SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier sealing the house off from the damp ground below. Now when Joe walks across his kitchen he is confident knowing his floor is stable, his crawl space is clean & dry, eliminating future mold growth or floor sagging.
