Crawl Space Repair in Keysville, Virginia
Challenge
A homeowner in Keysville contacted Fortress Foundation Solutions after years of dealing with a crawl space that stayed damp throughout the year. Moisture collected beneath the home after rainfall, and musty odors frequently entered the living areas. The homeowner became concerned about mold growth and the potential impact of moisture on the home’s structural components.
An inspection revealed exposed soil and elevated humidity levels within the crawl space. Without proper moisture protection, ground moisture continuously evaporated into the crawl space air, creating an environment conducive to mold growth and wood deterioration. The homeowner wanted a comprehensive, long-term solution to fully protect the crawl space.
Solution
Fortress Foundation Solutions installed a CleanSpace™ crawl space encapsulation system to seal out ground moisture. The system was paired with a SaniDry™ Sedona dehumidifier to maintain proper humidity levels and improve air quality.
After installation, the crawl space was transformed into a dry, clean environment. Odors were eliminated, moisture levels were controlled, and the homeowner gained peace of mind knowing their crawl space was protected by a permanent solution.
