Before & After Photos

This home in Altavista had a crawl space that was damp and musty, and needed some help!

Fortress solved this issue by installing a complete CleanSpace encapsulation, along with a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier. 

Our CleanSpace vapor barrier is designed to permanently prevent moisture and outside air from getting into your crawlspace. These products will work together to ensure that this homeowner now has a crawl space that stays clean and dry!

This crawlspace/basement in Greenville was dirty and water damaged from repeated flooding. Fortress solved these issues by installing a CleanSpace Encapsulation with a TripleSafe Sump System. 

In the Fisher, WV home featured here, sagging floors were a major concern due to weakened crawl space supports. The before photo shows the unsettling dip often caused by compromised floor joists. To resolve this and ensure long-term stability, we employed our expert foundation repair products—the SmartJack® System and CleanSpace® encapsulation system. Notice in the after photo how the galvanized steel columns from the SmartJack® System effectively lifted the floors towards their original alignment. The CleanSpace® encapsulation ensures a dry, healthy crawl space, enhancing the overall foundation quality and safety of the home.

Diana T. was looking to invest in a local small business, but there was one problem. Water was coming into the crawl space during heavy rains. She called Fortress Foundation Solutions after hearing good things from a friend.

A System Designer met with Diana, inspected her crawl space and provided a free estimate for an encapsulation. Soon a Fortress crew was onsite installing drainage matting, CleanSpace vapor barrier, and a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier. The CleanSpace is in place to seal the home from the damp earth. The final step is the SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier. It removes moisture from the air keeping the crawl space dry. Now, the crawl space is clean, dry and Diana knows it will keep this business safe.

In the 'before' photo, you can see the clear issues with sagging floors in this Dayton home, a problem often worsened by weakened floor joists and insufficient support. Fortress Foundation Solutions addressed these concerns with the SmartJack® System. Now as seen in the 'after' photo, the crawl space beams and floor joists have been expertly stabilized. The SmartJack provides a firm foundation, improving both the structural integrity of the home and resident peace of mind. Our installation reduces floor bounce and restores floors to a more level position.
