Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

Are open vents in your crawl space really the best for you and your home? Many construction professionals think so. Not Fortress Foundation Solutions! Open ventilation allows rain, water and moisture to get into crawl spaces - that's just what mold and mildew need to thrive. Jessica B. of Moneta, VA had rain pouring into her crawl space vents; her wet insulation was moldy and falling down. AJ Looney and his crew, arrived to help! They removed the ruined insulation, replaced it with Silverglo on the walls, drainage matting and CleanSpace vapor barrier on the ground, sealing it off from varying environmental elements. A Sanidry Sedona dehumidifier was the final step to control the humidity, keeping the area dry. Now Jessica has a healthy, insulated home and usable storage space!

This homeowner in Natural Bridge, VA called Fortress Foundation Solutions with concerns about the crawl space underneath the home. The homeowners weren't sure what issues they were facing but they knew the area needed to be addressed. Our System Designer, went out to this home and provided an estimate for an encapsulation. Our System Designer saw previous water damage and heavy moisture that had caused mold to grow. He suggested a CleanSpace Encapsulation for the area. Our Foreman and his crew installed our CleanSpace Vapor Barrier, SilverGlo Insulation, SandiDry Dehumidifier, EverLast Crawl Space Door, and Mold X to help treat the mold. 

William reached out to Fortress after noticing some sagging in his living room floor. We sent out Eddie, one of our System Designers to provide a FREE inspection on Williams home. Eddie found that the crawl space was suffering from high humidity, causing the beams to become saturated with moisture and begin to sag. We utilized our SmartJack system for this project & a supplemental steal beam to lift and prevent further sagging of the floors.

Home Owner in Lexington Virginia called Fortress Foundation Solution in haste to get their Crawl Space waterproofed and encapsulated. System Designer, Brandon Conner, proposed our Triple Safe Sump Pump System. This will direct any water that was previously getting into the Crawl Space to the Sump Pump and than back outside. After the Sump Pump System is installed our Production Crew will complete the full Encapsulation Process. Encapsulating the Crawl Space will allow the home owners full access to the Crawl Space. 

The crawl space of this home in Lexington,VA was wet and musty, and really needed some help! 

After Fortress provided a free no obligate estimate, our Foreman, Brian Davis, and his crew went out and helped this homeowner by installing a complete CleanSpace encapsulation, along with our SilverGlo Wall Insulation, a SmartSump sump pump, and a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier. All of these products will work together to keep this crawl space clean and dry!
