Before & After Photos

A homeowner called Fortress Foundation Solutions about a basement area that was unusable due to the mold on the walls and high moisture levels. System Designer Skylar Beverage, was happy to meet with them, explain our waterproofing products and provide a free, same-day estimate. Ready to move forward, they agreed. A waterproofing crew was soon onsite installing WaterGuard in the floor and CleanSpace vapor barrier on the walls. A SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier to keep things dry. Now this basement is dry and the homeowner can enter the clean and bright area for loads of added storage space!

In Savage, a homeowner faced persistent crawl space moisture leading to mold and deteriorating air quality. As shown, the area needed comprehensive repair. We addressed this by installing our CleanSpace system to encapsulate the area, blocking moisture and providing lasting protection. The SaniDry Sedona was deployed to regulate humidity effectively, preventing mold and musty odors. Finally, SilverGlo insulation was applied, increasing energy efficiency and acting as a robust moisture barrier. This transformation ensures the crawl space is dry, secure, and healthier for the whole home.

Kyle M. of Savage, MD had some air conditioning issues. While in the crawl space, he noticed the vines growing around his HVAC unit, mold and musty smells. Knowing he needed help, he called Fortress Foundation Solutions. Our System Designer Skylar Beverage inspected his crawl space and provided a free estimate for an encapsulation. An encapsulation would include drainage matting, CleanSpace vapor barrier and a SaniDry Sedona. The CleanSpace seals the ground from the house, keeping moisture and water away from the wood joists. Our SaniDry Sedona is a cutting-edge basement dehumidifier rated for energy efficiency and powerful enough to keep dry air circulating throughout a 3000 square foot area. The Sedona will ensure your crawl space is protected from excess moisture that can lead to mold growth, wood rot and odors, ensuring a dry, clean space. Now Kyle knows his crawl space won't be growing any more plants or fungus. He has protected his biggest investment - his home!

Jim E. of Jessup, MD, called Fortress Foundation Solutions after noticing musty smells coming from his crawl space. After investigating, he discovered pooling water and falling down, moisture-saturated insulation. System Designer Riley Ethier met with Jim, inspected his crawl space and provided a free estimate for an EZ FLow Drainage System, a Smart Sump Sump Pump, SilverGlo insulation, CleanSpace Vapor Barrier and a SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier. After speaking with Riley, Jim learned that the air in the crawl space flows upward into the home. He didn't want that musty, moldy air getting into his home and decided to move forward.

Soon foreman Ethan and his crew were onsite. They began by removing the old falling-down insulation. Next, they installed the EZFlow drainage that channels all water into the Super Sump Sump Pump. For insulation, SilverGlo was put up on the walls. Drainage matting and CleanSpace Vapor Barrier were put down sealing off the ground from the home, reducing moisture. The final step, a SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier was added. It removes excess moisture from the air keeping mold, mildew and wood rot from forming. Now Jim knows the air flowing into his home is clean and healthy and his home is protected!

This customer had severe inward bowing on her basement wall. After calling Fortress and having Danny, one of our System Designers out to her home, she moved forward with having our PowerBrace Wall Support System installed in her basement. The PowerBrace system is a great product that will permanently stop wall movement and in some cases, can move the wall back to its original position. This customer is happy to have the peace of mind that comes with the PowerBrace System!
