A homeowner in Hamilton, VA had easy access to their crawl space for storage. However, musty smells and overwhelming moisture limited items they could store. The falling down, moisture-saturated insulation was a big negative. System Designer Todd SImmons met with them, inspected the crawl space and provided a free estimate for an encapsulation. Soon a Fortress crew was onsite installing drainage matting, SilverGlo insulation and CleanSpace vapor barrier. The CleanSpace keeps out moisture and the SilverGlo insulates to keep the home warm in winter and cool in the summer. Now this home is climate protected and has plenty of clean storage space!
Fortress Foundation Solutions installed drainage matting, CleanSpace Walls, FoamMax Insulation, a SaniDry Dehumidifier, and moved the existing sump to a better location.
In Burkittsville, a homeowner reached out to us to address their sagging floors, evident in the before photo. As floors weaken, they can compromise the integrity of your home.

This system stabilized the crawl space beams, elevating the floors towards their original position. With steel columns and a reliable base, our solution secured the structure, enhanced support, and minimized any floor bounce. Notice the transformation and stability our professional expertise ensures.
