Before & After Photos

A customer called Fortress Foundation Solutions because they were concerned about moisture in their crawlspace. Crawl spaces are built on top of the earth. Most are not encapsulated with open, exposed dirt. This dirt contains the moisture that is naturally occurring in the ground. Many times water will actually pool inside the crawl space, causing mold, mildew and nasty smells. Our EZ Flow pipe fixes this problem. It will drain the ground water carrying it to the sump pump. This keeps pools of water from forming, keeping the earth dry.

This crawlspace in Stephens City was dirty and moldy. The insulation was falling down and the ground was muddy. Fortress installed a CleanSpace Encapsulation and a SmartSump System to keep this crawlspace clean and dry.

A homeowner near Sperryville, VA, called Fortress Foundation Solutions after noticing musty smells coming from his crawl space. After investigating, he discovered mildew and moisture beginning to damage his wooden floor joists and falling down, moisture-saturated insulation. System Designer Skylar Beverage performed an inspection and provided a free estimate for an encapsulation. Soon a Fortress crew was onsite installing drainage matting, SilverGlo insulation and CleanSpace vapor barrier. The CleanSpace keeps out moisture and the SilverGlo insulates to keep the home warm in winter and cool in the summer. Now this homeowner has protected his most important asset - his home!

This home in Clarksville had a crawl space that was wet and musty, and needed some help. The floors of the home also needed some extra support.

Our System Designer, Chris Wilmouth, went out to assess this home and recommended installing a complete CleanSpace encapsulation, along with a SmartSump sump pump, a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier, and Smart Jacks to better support the floors.

Our CleanSpace vapor barrier is designed to permanently prevent moisture and outside air from getting into the crawlspace. This homeowner now has a crawl space that is clean and dry, and no longer has to worry about sagging floors!

This crawlspace in Clarksville was leaking and moldy and the insulation was falling down due to the high moisture levels.  The dirt floor was covered in a thin layer of plastic that did not stop water and mud from getting in. Fortress solved these problems by installing a CleanSpace Encapsulation with a SmartSump Crawl Space Sump Pump System to ensure that this crawlspace will stay clean and dry!
