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.

Job Stories From Mc Lean, VA
Sagging Floors in McLean, VA

Facing sagging floors in his McLean, VA residence, Joe F. turned to Fortress Foundation Solutions for expert assistance. Seeking swift resolution, he contacted Kevin Shannon, a system designer at Fortress. Understanding the urgency, Kevin promptly arranged a meeting and provided a detailed estimate on the same day.

Following a thorough assessment, Kevin suggested installing Smart Jacks—an effective solution involving strategically positioned steel jacks to support the weight of sagging floors. Recognizing the importance of structural integrity, Joe accepted Kevin’s proposal without hesitation. Foreman Toby Bryant and his skilled team then diligently installed the Smart Jacks under an additional steel beam, reinforcing the weakened sections of the flooring.

The outcome of this comprehensive approach is a home with level floors fortified to withstand daily use. Now, as Joe walks on his once-sagging floors, he enjoys the assurance of stability and uniformity, all thanks to the meticulous efforts of Fortress Foundation Solutions.

Sagging Floors in McLean, VA

A homeowner from McLean reached out to Fortress Foundation Solutions due to water seepage in their crawl space and the onset of sagging floors in their residence. Upon hearing about their concerns over the phone, we dispatched Skylar Beverage, one of our System Designers, to assess the situation. Following his evaluation, he suggested implementing our SmartJack Crawl Space Support System along with a SmartSump sump pump. This comprehensive solution offers robust support for inadequate beams and restores stability and alignment to drooping floor joists within the crawl space. Furthermore, the sump pump will actively maintain a dry environment in the crawl space, effectively thwarting any potential water-related issues in the future.

Basement Waterproofing in McLean, VA

Ms. Moon was having her basement finished through a local contractor named Luis. He recommended to her that before they begin the process, they should ensure that her basement is thoroughly waterproofed. Luis had seen far too many expensively finished basements ruined because of unknown moisture and water intrusion in the basement. Ms. Moon agreed, and Luis called out Fortress to take a look. System Designer Todd Simmons went out and determined that the best solution for ms. Moon's basement is to have WaterGuard installed in the back corner where the walls are below grade. After receiving the proposal, however, she decided to move forward with the basement finishing project without the safety of waterproofing.

A dehumidifier instead of an encapsulation

Mr. Kuz called Fortress out to take a look at his crawlspace, which was damp and musty. He noticed that his home was always humid feeling, and knew enough about crawlspace science to know that the air in his home was directly related to the air in his crawlspace. Mr. Kuz was looking for a simple solution, just a powerful dehumidifier, to solve his problem. We had System Designer, Kurtis Toppart, go out to chat with Mr. Kuz and inspect his crawlspace. After determining that his concerns could not be addressed by a dehumidifier alone, Kurtis proposed a crawlspace encapsulation. Mr. Kuz was not in a place to financially take on the project at the time, and is planning to reevaluate in the coming year.
