Before & After Photos

Homeowners in Ijamsville, MD had a very cracked up and back patio leading to their fire pit, after some research they decided to reach out to Fortress to seal the cracks to prevent water intrusion which could lead to sinking. 

In Boyds, Maryland, homeowner Vivek had lived in this home for 5 years when they started noticing the front porch slowly sloping forward. Over time, a void began expanding underneath the stoop. Every time it rained, water would puddle in the area and eventually caused the washout and void formation seen in the before photo.

System Designer Joe came out to evaluate the issue and put together a solution. Ethan, our PolyLevel foreman, along with co-foreman Samuel, injected PolyLevel foam beneath the stoop. The foam compresses the soil underneath, fills the void, and lifts the stoop back toward its original position - as seen in the after photo.

Now, there are no more tripping hazards or unsightly sinking concrete outside of Vivek’s home, and the repair is backed by a 5-year warranty.

Homeowner, John in Vienna Virginia noticed a vertical crack all throughout his front porch. as seen in the before photo. he knew that if he didnt seal the crack water would trickle in and casuse soil erosion and eventually sink. he reached out to Fortress as a preventative measure. Cara came out to evaluate the crack and noted very little soil eroison occuring under the slab and the homeowner was adament on just sealing the crack to prevent further void. John agreed with caras solution. Ethan and Samuel came out shortly after to properly seal the crack with a flexible, UV resistant caulk called nexus. now they homeowner has no worries and it looks better.
