Before & After Photos

Tanya P. reached out to Fortress Foundation Solutions upon detecting musty odors emanating from her crawl space, where she uncovered mildew and moisture damaging the wooden floor joists and causing insulation saturation. System Designer Skylar Beverage conducted a thorough assessment, offering Tanya a complimentary estimate for encapsulation. Subsequently, a Fortress crew promptly commenced installation, incorporating drainage matting, SilverGlo insulation, and CleanSpace vapor barrier to combat moisture intrusion. With CleanSpace effectively blocking moisture and SilverGlo providing insulation for year-round comfort, Tanya has safeguarded her home, her most valuable asset.

This homeowner near Glenwood, Maryland knew their crawlspace was in rough shape. They were having issues with moisture, causing their insulation to fall. When insulation falls, it can create issues regulating temperature in the home and increase the energy bill. Also, mold spores can form in insulation that holds moisture and get into the air. They gave Fortress Foundation Solutions a call to help remedy their issues. Our system designer gave them a free estimate and a permanent solution. Then our crew installed the project and gave the crawlspace a makeover. They installed a full encapsulation using our CleanSpace Vapor Barrier to keep out any moisture and potential critters that no one wants below their home. Since their current insulation wasn't doing its job, they also opted for our SilverGlo insulation, which keeps outside air from getting in and inside air from escaping through the walls. Now their crawlspace is protected and looks great, and the home is safe and energy efficient.
