In Goodview, Mr. Page was dealing with ongoing moisture and damp air in his crawl space. Even though the space was smaller in size, excess humidity beneath the home was creating concerns about air quality and the potential for future moisture-related problems.
To create a healthier and more controlled environment, Travis and Jack installed a CleanSpace® vapor barrier throughout the crawl space to seal out ground moisture and help keep the area dry. A SaniDry™ Sedona dehumidifier was also installed to control humidity levels and improve air quality beneath the home.
As shown in the after photo, the crawl space is now cleaner, drier, and much better protected from future moisture issues. Mr. Page can now enjoy greater peace of mind knowing the area beneath his home has reliable, long-term moisture control in place.
This homeowner in Blue Grass, Virginia, gave Fortress a call to see about getting their crawl space encapsulated. We sent out a system designer to preform an inspection and see what we could do for the customer. After his inspection, we found that the crawl space was suffering from high humidity, which could lead to mold, and wood rot down the line. We recommended a full encapsulation of the space and utilized our CleanSpace Vapor Barrier paired with a SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifer.
Carla noticed that one wall in the basement apartment of her Moneta, VA home had begun to bow inward. Wanting to address the issue before it became more serious, she contacted Fortress Foundation Solutions for a permanent repair.
Toby and his crew stabilized the wall by installing 3 PowerBrace Wall Support Beams and 3 GeoLock Wall Anchors. Working together, these systems reinforce the wall and help prevent further inward movement. As shown in the after photo, the basement wall is now securely supported and protected for the long term.
In Friendsville, MD, a homeowner faced sinking and uneven concrete around their pool, a common issue that can lead to structural and safety concerns. As demonstrated in the left photo, these uneven surfaces needed immediate attention. We addressed this problem by utilizing our advanced PolyLevel® system, which stabilized and lifted the concrete to an even position. This method restored the functionality and aesthetic appeal of the area. Additionally, we applied NexusPro® Joint Sealant to protect and maintain the renewed concrete. Notice in the right photo how the solution provided a long-term improvement.
