Foundation & Wet Basement Repair in Rustburg, VA

In Rustburg, a homeowner approached us at Fortress Foundation Solutions with a pressing issue: a persistently wet basement that raised concerns about water damage and mold growth. They turned to us, trusting in our expertise to address the water infiltration effectively and permanently.

When our Customer Care Specialist was contacted, they swiftly scheduled an in-home inspection. Our System Design Specialist then conducted a comprehensive assessment to diagnose the problem accurately. It was determined that the basement's existing drainage system was inadequate, leading to water accumulation and subsequent humidity issues.

To rectify this, we installed a cutting-edge solution: the WaterGuard sub-floor drainage system, the TripleSafe sump pump, and a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier. Each component played a crucial role in creating a holistic approach to basement waterproofing. The WaterGuard system was discreetly placed beneath the basement floor, channeling any inbound water towards the TripleSafe sump pump, which guaranteed reliable water removal even during power outages, with its three-stage protection system.

After deploying the drainage and pumping solutions, our team fitted a SaniDry Sedona in the basement to tackle humidity, effectively reducing the risk of mold and musty odors. This high-performance dehumidifier ensures the area remains dry and contributes to the overall health of the property.

Upon completion, the Rustburg homeowner's basement no longer faced water-related challenges. They now enjoy a clean, dry, and reliable space in their home. At Fortress Foundation Solutions, we take pride in providing long-lasting and trustworthy solutions, confirming our commitment to remarkable customer experiences.

A homeowner in Rustburg approached us with growing concerns regarding their damp and moldy crawl space. They had noticed increased musty odors throughout their home and unsettling signs of wood degradation. Understanding the potential long-term impact of these issues, they reached out to our team at Fortress Foundation Solutions to ensure a comprehensive inspection and effective solution.

Upon the initial contact, our Customer Care Specialist scheduled a convenient appointment for the homeowner. Next, one of our skilled System Design Specialists conducted a thorough on-site inspection. Identification of excessive moisture and signs of mildew in the crawl space underscored a critical need for immediate repair and encapsulation.

Our production team deployed an integrated suite of high-performance solutions. The installation of the CleanSpace encapsulation system marked the transformation of the under-home environment. This strategic application combated moisture intrusion, substantially reducing the conditions for mold and wood decay. We insulated the crawl space using SilverGlo, leveraging its advanced insulative capabilities to enhance energy efficiency and deter moisture.

Central to the upgrade was the fitting of our TripleSafe Sump Pump system. This innovation not only provided robust defense against potential flooding but also ensured redundancy in various malfunction scenarios. Complementing this protective stance, our team introduced the SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier, optimizing ambient air quality and safeguarding against further mold colonization and musty odors.

In conclusion, our adept handling of the Rustburg crawl space resulted in a dry, usable foundation, dramatically alleviating the homeowner's initial concerns.

In a recent Virginia home, a homeowner contacted Fortress Foundation Solutions after repeated basement water intrusion began damaging stored belongings and raising concerns about mold. Moisture seeped in along the basement perimeter after heavy rains, leaving puddles and damp walls.

Our Customer Care Specialist scheduled an inspection, and a System Design Specialist evaluated the basement. The inspection revealed hydrostatic pressure pushing groundwater through the foundation walls and floor joint.

To resolve the issue, our team installed a WaterGuard® interior drainage system to capture incoming water and direct it safely to a TripleSafe™ sump pump. To further protect the space, a Sedona™ dehumidifier was added to control humidity and improve air quality.

After installation, the basement was dry, protected, and healthier. The homeowner regained full use of their basement with confidence it would remain dry year-round.

This homeowner in Rustburg , VA called Fortress with concerns about a water coming into the basement. This water coming in also caused an unpleasant musty smell.

Our System Designer,  was able to go out to the home and give these homeowners a piece of mind with a permanent solution. The best way to fix this issue was installing our WaterGuard system, along with our Super sump, sump pump. 

Our Foreman, and his crew went out to the home and began to install these products. The crew began preparing the perimeter of the basement for the WaterGuard. Once the WaterGuard is in place, the crew then installed the Super sump, sump pump.

An outside discharge is also installed on the sump pump to allow the water to be pumped out of the basement.  We also followed in with drainage stone over top of the WaterGuard. This crushed stone allows the water to easily flow to the WaterGuard, and then to the sump pump. Once the system and the stone are laid, new cement is laid over the system to give it a finished look. The end result was a dry basement that would last years to come
