Before & After Photos

This homeowner's crawlspace was in bad shape. It was holding a lot of moisture, causing the insullation to fall and the air quality to be less than ideal. A damp crawlspace can also threaten the integrity of the home by weakening the floor joists and beams. They called Fortress Foundation Solutions for help. Our systems designer went out and gave them a free estimate and proposed a solution to save their crawlspace. A crew installed a full encapsulation using our CleanSpace vapor barrier and SilverGlo insulation. They also installed a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier, which acts as an air purifier as well as a dehumidifier. This crawlspace is now safe from moisture and critters and has been turned into a usable space for storage. On top of all that, the homeowners can have peace of mind that they are breathing the cleanest air thanks to the SaniDry Sedona. 

A homeowner in Manchester, MD already had an existing waterproofing system in their basement but contacted Fortress Foundation Solutions for a proper sump pump installation. Our team installed a SuperSump®+, a reliable single-pump system designed to keep the basement dry.

The SuperSump®+ is our most basic sump pump option and does not include a battery backup. After discussing their needs, the homeowner felt confident that this system would provide the protection they were looking for. If their needs change in the future, the system can easily be upgraded within the same basin to include additional protection and backup options.

The existing sump location was not ideal for the water issued that were present in the home.  A new optimal location was chosen and in conjucntion with WaterGuard the Super Sump will efficiently and effective manage the water in the space. 

This home in Norton, VA was having water come into the basement. This issue can become very severe leading to further problems if not taken care of in a timely manner or done correctly.  These homeowners called Fortress to get this job done right!

 Our System Designer, Robert Briggs, went out to this home and provided a free, no obligation estimate. Robert concluded the best solution to this issue would be our WaterGuard system with a SuperSump sump pump. This system gets the water to the SuperSump through the WaterGuard. The SuperSump pumps that water outside and away from the house. The final result: a clean, dry basement!
