Before & After Photos

This house in Charlottesville suffered from bad cracks on the outside of the house. This was due to the house sinking and settling. Fortress solved this issue by installing several Helical Piers along the outside of the house to support and stabilize the foundation.

This homeowner in Charlottesville contacted Fortress Foundation Solutions because the floors in their home were starting to sag. Fortress informed the customer that the support posts in their crawl space were cracking and bowing and their home was in serious need of our SmartJacks Crawl Space Stabilizer System. This system is an adjustable supplemental support system used for sagging floors. SmartJacks can also often lift failing floor joists or beams, restoring them to their original position. Now this homeowner can rest easy knowing that their floors will be straight for many years to come!

This home has been in the family for over 35 years! System Designer, Chris Wilmouth, came out to meet with the home owners to hear their concerns and inspect their home to see how we could help provide a permanent solution for their home's foundation to ensure it continues to stay in the family for many generations to come. 

Andre Luck (Lucky) and his crew completed the installation of 22 Smart Jack floor supports to ensure this would be brought back to its original location and provide this family with peace of mind knowing their home's foundation isn't going to fail overtime. 

Jerome was dealing with two major basement issues in his Charlottesville home. Pressure from the surrounding soil had caused one of the basement walls to begin bowing inward, while water intrusion was creating additional concerns about the condition of the foundation.

To address both problems, Cope and his crew installed our WaterGuard® Basement Waterproofing System along with 12 CarbonArmor® Wall Reinforcing Straps. The WaterGuard® system helps keep the basement dry by capturing and directing water away, while the CarbonArmor® straps stabilize the wall and help prevent further inward movement

This basement in Charlottesville had a bowing wall with cracks that were allowing water to leak in. Fortress solved this issue by installing several CarbonArmor  Straps along the wall to stabilize the foundation.
