Before & After Photos

From dusty, musty, and humid to clean, dry, and usable again.

Homeowners in Keezletown, Virginia had been living with a damp and unhealthy crawl space for years. After seeing the results of their neighbor's crawl space encapsulation, they decided it was time to contact Fortress Foundation Solutions for an inspection.

System Designer Sonny performed a full evaluation of the crawl space, documenting his findings with photos and thoroughly explaining the issues to the homeowners. He educated them on what was happening beneath their home, what was causing the problems, why it was important to address them, and the long-term benefits of a professional crawl space encapsulation system.

Confident in Sonny's recommendations, the homeowners moved forward with the proposed solution. Foreman Nick and his crew then got to work, transforming the crawl space into a clean, dry, and healthier environment that will help protect the home for years to come. 

A homeowner in McGaheysville, Virginia was dealing with a damp crawl space that was starting to affect the home’s structure, energy efficiency, and air quality.

We addressed the issue by fully encapsulating the crawl space with our CleanSpace Vapor Barrier to seal out moisture. SilverGlo insulation was added to help regulate temperature and improve efficiency, and a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier was installed to keep humidity levels in check.

The result, shown in the after photo, is a clean, dry crawl space that’s now a stable and healthier part of the home.

Before Fortress Foundation Solutions arrived in Faber, Virginia, this homeowner faced issues with mold, high humidity, and cold floors due to an unsealed crawl space. As you can see in the photo, these problems were visibly impactful. To address this, we installed our CleanSpace® crawl space encapsulation system. In the after photo, you can see how CleanSpace® effectively transformed the area into a clean, dry environment. The innovative 20-mil liner now protects the space against moisture and mold, restoring both comfort and stability to the homeowner’s living environment.

This homeowner in Wardensville, Virginia was concerned about musty odors, high humidity, and soft, sagging floors in the home. After looking into the issue, it became clear the crawl space was the source of the problem. They reached out to our team and scheduled a FREE inspection. Our system designer evaluated the crawl space and found moisture intrusion, poor drainage, and weakened supports, then created a plan to address each issue.

The homeowner was happy with the proposal and decided to move forward. A few weeks later, our crew got to work installing an EZ Flow drainage system, CleanSpace vapor barrier, SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier, and SmartJack supports. Now, the crawl space is dry, sealed, and structurally sound. The home now has cleaner air, stronger floors, and lasting peace of mind.

Timothy K. of Augusta, WV, contacted Fortress Foundation Solutions after noticing our yard sign while driving by. Unaware of any local crawl space repair services, Timothy sought help for his home's humidity and musty odor issues, which were deterring visitors. Upon System Designer Kurtis Toppert's evaluation, revealing standing water in his crawl space, Timothy promptly opted for a comprehensive encapsulation.

Service Technician Spencer Stottlemyer and his team swiftly tackled the challenge, leveling the soil and installing an exterior discharge line linked to our Super Safe Premier Sump Pump System, capable of pumping 2,220 gallons per hour. They then laid our drainage matting and Clean Space vapor barrier, offering a 25-year guarantee against damage.

Timothy expressed gratitude for the professionalism of the Fortress team. Now, a year later, his crawl space remains consistently dry and well-maintained.
