Crawl Space Encapsulation in Gormania, WV

Challenge

A homeowner in Gormania, West Virginia noticed a persistent musty odor and discovered mold growing on their crawl space joists and insulation. The moisture problem had worsened over time, and the homeowner worried about health risks and structural damage. They reached out to Fortress Foundation Solutions for a long-term solution.

Solution

Our inspection confirmed significant humidity and standing moisture beneath the home. To address the issue, our crew encapsulated the space with the CleanSpace® Vapor Barrier, sealing the ground and walls to create a moisture-tight environment.

Next, we installed the TripleSafe™ Sump Pump System to effectively remove any collected groundwater, followed by the SaniDry™ Sedona, which continuously controls humidity and prevents future mold growth.

After the installation, the crawl space remained dry, bright, and odor-free, with dramatically improved air quality throughout the home.
