Before & After Photos

In Waynesboro, Lucille had been noticing ongoing moisture issues in her 1,500-square-foot crawl space. The area remained damp and unprotected, creating concerns about mold growth, poor air quality, and potential structural damage beneath the home. During our inspection, we found standing moisture and poor drainage contributing to the unhealthy conditions in the crawl space.

Warren and his crew installed a complete moisture control system to permanently protect the crawl space. An EZ Flow drainage system was added to collect and direct water away from the area, while a SuperSump® system was installed to efficiently remove any incoming water.

To fully seal the space, the crew installed a CleanSpace® vapor barrier throughout the crawl space to block out ground moisture and create a dry, controlled environment. SilverGlo™ insulation was also added along the walls to improve energy efficiency and help regulate temperatures year-round.

As shown in the after photos, the crawl space is now clean, dry, and fully protected. Lucille can now enjoy greater peace of mind knowing the space beneath her home is sealed, healthier, and built for long-term protection.

This customer called Fortress Foundation Solutions to get an estimate on a full crawl space encapsulation. Skylar, one of our expert System Designers went out to the property to preform an inspection and provide the customer a quote. After review the proposal and asking a few follow up questions, this customer felt confident that Fortress was the right company to do the work.

A few weeks later one of our crews went out and completed the work. We installed our CleanSpace Vapor Barrier system to the crawl space, along with a Sedona Dehumidifier system to keep the moisture at bay! This customer was very happy with the end result and is glad to have his crawl space clean and dry!

Sandra was dealing with structural issues beneath her Grottoes home, including sagging floors, rotted floor joists, and a deteriorating sill plate. These problems were weakening the home's support system and causing noticeable instability throughout the structure.

To restore the home's structural integrity, Nate and his crew installed 4 SmartJack supports, added a supplemental beam, sistered 8 damaged joists, and replaced the deteriorated sill plate. 

From dusty, musty, and humid to clean, dry, and usable again.

Homeowners in Keezletown, Virginia had been living with a damp and unhealthy crawl space for years. After seeing the results of their neighbor's crawl space encapsulation, they decided it was time to contact Fortress Foundation Solutions for an inspection.

System Designer Sonny performed a full evaluation of the crawl space, documenting his findings with photos and thoroughly explaining the issues to the homeowners. He educated them on what was happening beneath their home, what was causing the problems, why it was important to address them, and the long-term benefits of a professional crawl space encapsulation system.

Confident in Sonny's recommendations, the homeowners moved forward with the proposed solution. Foreman Nick and his crew then got to work, transforming the crawl space into a clean, dry, and healthier environment that will help protect the home for years to come. 

A homeowner in McGaheysville, Virginia was dealing with a damp crawl space that was starting to affect the home’s structure, energy efficiency, and air quality.

We addressed the issue by fully encapsulating the crawl space with our CleanSpace Vapor Barrier to seal out moisture. SilverGlo insulation was added to help regulate temperature and improve efficiency, and a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier was installed to keep humidity levels in check.

The result, shown in the after photo, is a clean, dry crawl space that’s now a stable and healthier part of the home.
