Mr. Harris was dealing with severe structural issues in the crawl space beneath his Buena Vista home. Years of high humidity had caused significant rot in the wooden floor joists, weakening the floor system and compromising the home's structural support.
Warren and his crew completed repairs, including sistering 30 damaged joists, replacing a 30-foot section of the main beam, and installing 3 SmartJack® supports for additional stabilization. As shown in the after photo, the crawl space is now properly reinforced, providing the home with the strength and support needed for long-term stability.
Jeffrey contacted Fortress Foundation Solutions for a crawl space inspection after learning about the damage excess moisture and humidity can cause beneath a home. During our inspection, we found conditions that could lead to long-term moisture-related issues if left unaddressed.
To protect the home from the ground up, Travis, Jack, and Mickey installed our CleanSpace® Crawl Space Encapsulation System. As shown in the after photos, the crawl space is now sealed and protected from excess moisture and humidity, creating a healthier environment beneath the home and helping prevent future damage.
Crawl space encapsulation in Maysville, West Virginia. Homeowners noticed sagging floors, high humidity, and musty odors coming from beneath their home. They called Fortress because we're the local experts in crawl space repair. Danny, one of our skilled System Designers, performed a free inspection and developed a customized plan to improve the crawl space and the overall health of the home. Nick and his crew professionally installed a complete encapsulation system, including waterproofing, SilverGlo™ insulation, a CleanSpace® vapor barrier, and a SaniDry™ Sedona dehumidifier.
The Pauley family in Danville, Virginia was dealing with a crawl space that stayed damp and unhealthy, as shown in the before photo. Water pooling up was starting to affect both the space itself and the air quality in the home.
We solved the problem by sealing the crawl space with our CleanSpace Encapsulation System and improving insulation with our SilverGlo wall panel insulation. To handle any water intrusion, we installed an UltraSump sump pump system for reliable drainage and protection.
In the after photo, the difference is clear. The crawl space is now clean, dry, and much better protected, helping support a healthier home overall.
