Basement Waterproofing in Bluefield, Virginia
Challenge
A homeowner in Bluefield, Virginia struggled with a basement that always felt damp, even when there was no visible standing water. Condensation formed on the walls and pipes, and a persistent mildew smell spread throughout the home. Over time, the humidity caused wood framing to swell and paint to peel, creating an unhealthy environment.
The homeowner was concerned that prolonged moisture could lead to mold growth and structural damage. They needed a solution that would not only manage water intrusion but also control humidity and improve air quality.
Solution
Fortress Foundation Solutions installed the WaterGuard® Interior Drainage System to capture and redirect any water entering the basement. The system was connected to the TripleSafe™ Sump Pump System, which provides reliable pumping with triple-layer protection.
To maintain a dry and healthy environment, the SaniDry™ Sedona Dehumidifier was installed to remove excess moisture and filter airborne contaminants.
After installation, the basement became dry, odor-free, and comfortable, giving the homeowner peace of mind and a healthier home environment.
