Crawl Space Encapsulation on Hickory Way in Charlottesville, VA

System Designer, Chris Wilmouth, went out to a home where the owners had lived for over 30 years! Chris did a thorough inspection of their crawl space and provided a permanent solution that will eliminate their fear of water entering their crawl space! 

 

Our Foreman, David Bowers, and his crew completed a full crawl space encapsulation system which included two Smart Sump Pumps, one SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier and our Clean Space vapor barrier system to keep their new crawl space nice and dry. 

Verona, VA Huge Drainage Problems In A Dug-Out Crawl Space

These homeowners approached Fortress Foundation Solutions for help with their dug-out crawlspace. Their crawlspace was getting penetrated by water at the floor level and mold was beginning to grow on the block walls. Because these homeowners used their crawlspace for storage and a home-workshop, they were worried about their personal belongings getting ruined by the incoming water and the damp, humid environment it was causing.; The incoming water was not only staining the concrete walls and floors, but it was also dampening the plywood the homeowner kept in the basement. A majority of this home’s problems were caused by the lack of a proper drainage system. Because of having little drainage, standing water puddles were also forming in the crawlspace. Fortress provided many solutions for this home’s crawlspace problems. To waterproof the walls of the crawlspace we applied CleanSpace panels to the walls. At the base of the walls, we installed WaterGuard, which captures all of the water that might penetrate the CleanSpace (if it even gets through!).

Rustburg, VA SmartJack and Crawl Space Encapsulation

This poor crawlspace was sagging, flooding, and dirty. Fortress Installed 18 SmartJacks and a SleanSpace Encapsulation to lift the crawlspace and make sure it stays clean.

The crawl space of this property in Lebanon was damp and dirty, and needed some help!

Our CleanSpace vapor barrier is designed to permanently prevent moisture and outside air from getting into the crawlspace. This homeowner now has a crawl space that is clean and dry!

Rustburg, VA Crawl Space Encapsulation

This home in Rustburg, VA was having issues with water coming into their crawlspace. They wanted to get this issue resolved as fast and as accurately as possible, so they called Fortress Foundation Solutions to fix this issue. 

Our System Designer, Scott went out to this home to provide a free estimate. Scott knew the best solution to the issue these homeowners were facing was a total encapsulation. Our Foreman, Aaron and his crew went out to this home. The crew installed our Cleanspace Vapor Barrier to protect the crawlspace from the outside elements. To control the water coming into the crawlspace, our crew installed our Smart Sump. The sump pump allows the water to be pumped out the home through a discharge line. The crew also installed out SaniDry Dehumidifier to alleviate any moisture.  

 

The final result of this encapsulation was a clean and water free crawl space for years to come.
