Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

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. 

This client was worried about moisture in her crawls pace, so she called Fortress Foundation Solutions, who sent Paul Heckman to her house. Paul did a thorough inspection of her crawl space, and gave her an estimate. A few days later, our Foreman, Charlie Evans, went out with his crew and installed our SilverGlo Insulation on the walls of the crawl space, our SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier in the corner, and our CleanSpace Vapor Barrier on the floors and walls. Our client was so grateful for her clean, dry crawl space!

This home owner called Fortress Foundation Solutions worried because there was a musty smell throughout their home. They called our Fortress team and we sent our System Designer, Sonny, out to take a look. Sonny inspected the property and discovered water getting into their crawl space. After Sonny was finished with his inspection, he determined that the best solution was to have our production team install our Crawl Space Encapsulation System along with our SmartSump Pump to remove the water permanently and give them peace of mind knowing their crawl space will always be dry.  

This customer was worried about the state of his crawl space, particularly about the water leaking in, so he called Fortress Foundation Solutions to come give him a free estimate. We sent out our System Designer, Paul Heckman, who did a thorough inspection of his crawl space and designed a solution just for him. Soon after signing the contract, our Foreman, Travis Farmer, and his crew went out to complete the job. They installed our SmartPump Sump Pump system to keep the water out, as well as our SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier to keep the air in the crawl space moisture-free. To finish the job, they installed our SilverGlo Insulation on the walls, as well as our Drainage Matting and CleanSpace Vapor Barrier on the ground to ensure the crawl space stays nice and dry. Our client was incredibly satisfied with the result!
