From dusty, musty, and humid to clean, dry, and usable again.
Homeowners in Keezletown, Virginia had been living with a damp and unhealthy crawl space for years. After seeing the results of their neighbor's crawl space encapsulation, they decided it was time to contact Fortress Foundation Solutions for an inspection.
System Designer Sonny performed a full evaluation of the crawl space, documenting his findings with photos and thoroughly explaining the issues to the homeowners. He educated them on what was happening beneath their home, what was causing the problems, why it was important to address them, and the long-term benefits of a professional crawl space encapsulation system.
Confident in Sonny's recommendations, the homeowners moved forward with the proposed solution. Foreman Nick and his crew then got to work, transforming the crawl space into a clean, dry, and healthier environment that will help protect the home for years to come.
A homeowner in McGaheysville, Virginia was dealing with a damp crawl space that was starting to affect the home’s structure, energy efficiency, and air quality.
We addressed the issue by fully encapsulating the crawl space with our CleanSpace Vapor Barrier to seal out moisture. SilverGlo insulation was added to help regulate temperature and improve efficiency, and a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier was installed to keep humidity levels in check.
The result, shown in the after photo, is a clean, dry crawl space that’s now a stable and healthier part of the home.
Before Fortress Foundation Solutions arrived in Faber, Virginia, this homeowner faced issues with mold, high humidity, and cold floors due to an unsealed crawl space. As you can see in the photo, these problems were visibly impactful. To address this, we installed our CleanSpace® crawl space encapsulation system. In the after photo, you can see how CleanSpace® effectively transformed the area into a clean, dry environment. The innovative 20-mil liner now protects the space against moisture and mold, restoring both comfort and stability to the homeowner’s living environment.
This customer called Fortress Foundation Solutions to get a quote for retaining wall support on a new rental property investment. The wall is located by the pool and was suffering from bowing and risked total wall failure. We went out to do an inspection and provided a quote to the customer, who decided to move forward with the work. Our crews installed our PowerBrace Wall Support solution to protect the walls from further bowing. This customer is happy to have the security of our products installed on his investment property.
In Wardensville, WV, a homeowner faced water intrusion in their basement, particularly through the underground portion of a finished wall. This problem stems from the house being built on a slope. To address this, we installed our WaterGuard system, a subfloor perimeter drainage solution, along with the TripleSafe sump pump. This combination works to effectively redirect water away from the home, ensuring a clean, dry basement space. As demonstrated in the after photo, the home is now stable and healthy, providing lasting protection against foundation seepage.
