This Charlottesville Non-profit school needed storage and residential space. They needed Fortress Foundation Solutions to help them solve this problem. System Designer, Danny Camunas, was able to provide an inspection and free estimate. Crew leader, Warren Dickerson, led his team to install Smart Jacks for floor support; drainage matting; and CleanSpace vapor barrier in the the crawl space of a building on the grounds. Now the building is structurally sound, and the air quality improved making it a positive space for learning to take place!
In Charlottesville, a homeowner struggled with a persistently wet basement, as shown in the first photo. To resolve this, we installed our WaterGuard® sub-floor perimeter drainage system, effectively collecting wall and floor water seepage before it reached the basement floor. This guides the water to the TripleSafe™ sump pump system, shown in the after photo, which ensures reliable water removal, even in power failures. Thanks to these precisely designed solutions, his basement is now dry and protected, providing a secure space for storage and other uses.
In Charlottesville, a homeowner was facing issues with a damp crawl space, threatening their home's structural integrity and indoor air quality. As shown in the initial photo, moisture and humidity were significant concerns. Notice the sagging insulation.
We installed our CleanSpace encapsulation system to eliminate dampness, improving structural health. SilverGlo insulation was added to enhance energy efficiency. Lastly, the SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier ensured continuous dry air, showcasing on the second photo, preventing chance for mold growth. Notice the transformation in the after photo.
In the before photo, notice the dampness and risk of flooding that Melanie faced in her Charlottesville, Virginia basement. Our team at Fortress Foundation Solutions expertly resolved this by installing a reliable WaterGuard® perimeter drainage system, as well as the TripleSafe™ sump pump. WaterGuard® channels seepage away, preventing clogs, while the TripleSafe™ system ensures fail-safe pumping during high-demand conditions and power outages. This comprehensive setup keeps the basement reliably dry, overcoming the previous challenges persuasively, enhancing both storage value and homeowner peace of mind.
Allen was dealing with water entering his Charlottesville basement during heavy rains. Tired of the constant cleanup and concerned about the impact on his foundation, he contacted Fortress Foundation Solutions for a permanent waterproofing solution. Cope and his crew installed a complete basement waterproofing system, including WaterGuard® drainage, two SuperSump® sump pumps, and CleanSpace® Wall. As shown in the after photos, the basement is now dry, protected, and equipped to handle future water intrusion with confidence.
