In Lincoln, VA, a homeowner reached out to Fortress Foundation Solutions with concerns about their uneven and unsafe pool deck. Our inspection revealed soil movement and surface cracks as the main causes. To fix the issue, we used NexusPro® Joint Sealant to close cracks and protect against water damage, followed by our PolyLevel® system to lift and stabilize the sunken slabs. After injecting the expanding foam beneath the concrete, the deck was restored to a smooth, level, and secure surface. The result was a safer, long-lasting solution that gave the homeowner peace of mind and a renewed outdoor space.
A homeowner in Jefferson, Maryland noticed numerous cracks and uneven concrete around their pool and reached out to Fortress Foundation Solutions to see if we could help.
System Designer Joe met with the homeowners and performed a thorough inspection of the affected area. After investigating the cause of the sinking and cracked concrete, he determined that voids beneath the slabs were allowing the concrete to settle. Joe developed a customized repair plan to permanently address the issue.
The very next week, Ethan and Samuel arrived on site and expertly lifted and leveled the concrete surrounding the pool, restoring both the appearance and safety of the area.
This homeowner in Leesburg, Virginia was concerned about the uneven sidewalk leading to the front door. The homeowner was worried about the residents and visitors tripping over the sinking sidewalk. The homeowner gave Fortress Foundation Solutions for a free estimate and a permanent solution. Our system designer, Riley Ethier, informed the homeowner that the sidewalk was sinking due to natural soil erosion and settlement underneath the concrete. To remedy the situation, Riley proposed our PolyLevel system as the permanent solution. PolyLevel is an expanding polyurethane foam that is injected beneath the concrete to fill the gaps caused by soil erosion and raise and stabilize the concrete surface. Tim Gregorin took our PolyLevel rig and fixed this sidewalk! Once the PolyLevel Foam had stabilized and leveled the concrete, Tim sealed the joints with our NexusPro Joint Sealant. NexusPro prevents water from getting under the concrete where is can freeze and expand to cause more harm. This homeowner was elated to have peace of mind and the safety of the home restored!
