Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

Paul H. called Fortress Foundation Solutions after noticing musty smells coming from his crawl space. After investigating, he discovered mildew and moisture beginning to damage his wooden floor joists and falling down, moisture-saturated insulation. System Designer Skylar Beverage met with Paul, inspected his crawl space and provided a free estimate for an encapsulation. Soon a Fortress crew was onsite installing drainage matting, SilverGlo insulation and CleanSpace vapor barrier. The CleanSpace keeps out moisture and the SilverGlo insulates to keep the home warm in winter and cool in the summer. Paul has now protected his most important asset - his home!

After acquiring a rental property with a damp crawl space, this homeowner sought assistance from Fortress Foundation Solutions. Faced with recurring calls from tenants regarding the issue, they desired a lasting resolution. Chris Wilmouth, System Designer, conducted a thorough inspection of the crawl space and proposed a solution comprising encapsulation, a Smart Sump sump pump, and a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier. The Smart Sump ensures water removal, the SaniDry Sedona maintains low humidity levels, and the CleanSpace Vapor Barrier effectively blocks ground moisture, eliminating mildew and musty odors. With these improvements in place, the landlord can now enjoy peace of mind without the burden of frequent tenant complaints.

These homeowners are preparing their home to sell after they retire and move to the beach. System Designer, Scotty Love, met with the homeowners to hear their concerns and provide a solution that brings them peace of mind when listing their home in the future.

Now this crawl space is dry and the homeowner can enter the clean and bright area for loads of added storage space!
