Before & After Photos

Stacey called Fortress after noticing moisture in her crawl space. Concerned for safety of her home she reached out for a free estimate. We sent Brandon, one of our system designers out to take a look and come up with a plan. Noticing high humidity and moisture in the crawl space, Brandon proposed a full crawl space encapsulation and de-humidification. Stacey was glad that there was a solution to her issues and was happy to move forward.

A few weeks later our crew went out and installed our CleanSpace Vapor Barrier system to the crawl space, along with a Sedona SaniDri Dehumidifier to seal out dirt and moisture from the crawl space for good.

In the before photo, notice the damp, dirty conditions in this Indian Valley, Virginia crawl space, a common issue leading to mold and pest problems. We resolved this with our comprehensive encapsulation approach using CleanSpace, providing a thorough moisture barrier. The installation of our TripleSafe Sump Pump ensures excellent water management, while the SaniDry Sedona effectively controls humidity levels, minimizing mold growth. Additionally, SilverGlo insulation enhances energy efficiency. This transformative solution keeps the crawl space dry and stable, setting a durable foundation for years to come.

Before our intervention, this Virginia crawl space showed significant mold and excess moisture issues, reflecting a common but serious problem for homeowners. Upon inspection, we recognized the need for our CleanSpace and SaniDry Sedona systems to address the climate in the space. By installing CleanSpace, we provided a strong, long-lasting barrier against moisture and mold. Coupled with the efficiency of the SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier, which efficiently controlled humidity, the after photo confirms a now clean, dry, and healthier environment demonstrating the high standards in crawl space repair offered by Fortress Foundation Solutions.

This customer came to us with concerns about their flooding crawlspace that was damp and cold. To keep the heat in the house from escaping though the crawlspace, Fortress foundation solutions installed SilverGlow insulation. Then, Fortress installed a drainage mat and a CleanSpace liner to waterproof the crawl space and address the damp and musty issues the customer was facing. Fortress also installed a SaniDry Sedona to ensure the crawl space would always be dry.

Sarah called Fortress Foundation Solutions to come out and provide a free inspection and estimate to encapsulate her home's crawl space. She had noticed musty smells in her home for a while but was unable to figure out why. She read online that moisture and humidity in crawl spaces could be the cause and decided to get it checked out.

Riley, one of our expert System Designers, went out to Sarah's property to perform an inspection and concluded that her crawl space was suffering from high humidity, moisture, and organic growth, all contributing to the musty smell she had been noticing. He presented these findings to Sarah, along with a proposal to fix the issues he had found. She was happy with our offerings and decided to move forward with the recommended work.

One of our crews was then scheduled to go out and do a full encapsulation of the crawl space. We utilized our CleanSpace Vapor Barrier System, which starts off with our Delta Drainage Matting and is then covered by the CleanSpace barrier. Sarah also elected to install one of our Sedona Dehumidifiers to fully protect her crawl space from moisture and humidity.

Sarah reported that the musty smells have stopped and that she is so pleased to have her crawl space fully protected!
