Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

This customer called Fortress Foundation Solutions to get an estimate on a full crawl space encapsulation. Skylar, one of our expert System Designers went out to the property to preform an inspection and provide the customer a quote. After review the proposal and asking a few follow up questions, this customer felt confident that Fortress was the right company to do the work.

A few weeks later one of our crews went out and completed the work. We installed our CleanSpace Vapor Barrier system to the crawl space, along with a Sedona Dehumidifier system to keep the moisture at bay! This customer was very happy with the end result and is glad to have his crawl space clean and dry!

Before Fortress Foundation Solutions arrived in Faber, Virginia, this homeowner faced issues with mold, high humidity, and cold floors due to an unsealed crawl space. As you can see in the photo, these problems were visibly impactful. To address this, we installed our CleanSpace® crawl space encapsulation system. In the after photo, you can see how CleanSpace® effectively transformed the area into a clean, dry environment. The innovative 20-mil liner now protects the space against moisture and mold, restoring both comfort and stability to the homeowner’s living environment.

Timothy K. of Augusta, WV, contacted Fortress Foundation Solutions after noticing our yard sign while driving by. Unaware of any local crawl space repair services, Timothy sought help for his home's humidity and musty odor issues, which were deterring visitors. Upon System Designer Kurtis Toppert's evaluation, revealing standing water in his crawl space, Timothy promptly opted for a comprehensive encapsulation.

Service Technician Spencer Stottlemyer and his team swiftly tackled the challenge, leveling the soil and installing an exterior discharge line linked to our Super Safe Premier Sump Pump System, capable of pumping 2,220 gallons per hour. They then laid our drainage matting and Clean Space vapor barrier, offering a 25-year guarantee against damage.

Timothy expressed gratitude for the professionalism of the Fortress team. Now, a year later, his crawl space remains consistently dry and well-maintained.

Concerned by rising energy bills and a persistent chill, a family in Paw Paw, WV discovered that their existing crawl space insulation was no longer effective. After receiving a trusted referral, they reached out to our team for a comprehensive solution.

Our experts identified moisture intrusion through gaps in the crawl space as the root cause. We installed a CleanSpace vapor barrier and SilverGlo insulation panels to seal and insulate the area, significantly enhancing energy efficiency and indoor air quality. To maintain optimal humidity levels, a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier was added—quietly ensuring dry, healthy air circulation throughout the home.

With their crawl space properly sealed and conditioned, the homeowners now enjoy a more comfortable living environment and reduced energy costs—proving that true home efficiency starts from the ground up.

Your Crawl Space should be an accessible area to your home! Fortress Foundation Solutions was able to make that possible at this home in Charlottesville, Virginia by fully Encapsulating the Crawl Space. We started by using our Water Drainage Matting to keep any water that may come up from the ground out of the crawl space. Next, we installed our Clean Space Vapor Barrier System and SilverGlo Insulation to keep dirt and critters from getting into the crawl space. Lastly, our Production Crew installed our Triple Safe Sump Pump System to redirect any water getting in through the walls back outside, and the SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier. This Crawl Space Encapsulation Process allows a clean and dry environment for these homeowners.
