Homeowners in Marshall, VA, were experiencing significant settling around their concrete pool deck, creating a major safety concern. They reached out to Fortress Foundation Solutions, and our System Designer, Jamey, performed a complete evaluation. After his inspection, he reassured the homeowners that they didn't need to replace their concrete - we could lift it instead.
That's exactly what we did. Our installation team, Ethan and Samuel, injected PolyLevel® foam beneath the slab in multiple areas to lift and level the concrete. Once the slab was restored, they sealed the remaining cracks with NexusPro® joint sealant to help prevent future water intrusion and soil washout.
Now, these homeowners can enjoy their pool all summer long without worrying about uneven concrete or safety hazards.
Tammy was dealing with water intrusion and high humidity in her Bracey crawl space. Left untreated, these conditions could have led to mold, structural damage, and poor air quality throughout the home. Warren and his crew completely transformed the crawl space by installing a CleanSpace® vapor barrier, EZ Flow drainage system, two TripleSafe™ sump pumps, a SaniDry™ Sedona dehumidifier, and SilverGlo™ wall insulation. As shown in the after photo, the crawl space is now dry, sealed, and fully protected from moisture and humidity for the long term.
Homeowners in Hagerstown noticed their garage was cracking, settling, and becoming increasingly uneven. They called the experts at Fortress Foundation Solutions for a free evaluation. Joe was the System Designer on the project and knew the obvious solution was PolyLevel®. He explained how the hydrophobic foam would compress and stabilize the soil beneath the slab, fill the voids, and lift the concrete back toward its original position. Ethan and Samuel installed the PolyLevel® and sealed the cracks with NexusPro®, creating a cleaner appearance while helping prevent future soil washout and further damage.
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 Middletown, Maryland, had a sinking, unlevel sidewalk leading to their front door. It had become a tripping hazard, and fearing the cost of replacement, they reached out to Fortress. We sent Matt, our skilled System Designer, to perform a complete evaluation, and he showed the homeowner how we could lift and level their sidewalk for much less than the cost of replacement and with far less disruption.
