Before & After Photos

The crawl space of this home in Bethesda was damp and musty, and needed some help!

Our System Designer, Jordan went out to this assess this crawl space and recommended that the best solution would be to install a complete CleanSpace encapsulation, along with a SmartSump sump pump and a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier.

Our CleanSpace vapor barrier is designed to permanently prevent moisture and outside air from getting into your crawlspace. Together, these products will ensure that this crawl space will remain clean and dry!

This homeowner in Walkersville called Fortress Foundation Solutions because they wanted to have their crawl space encapsulated.

Fortress went out and installed our CleanSpace Vapor Barrier, along with SilverGlo Wall Insulation. A vapor barrier slows or prevents the evaporation of ground moisture into the crawl space air. No more rot, rust, mold, odors, insects or other moisture-related problems.  It can also turn your crawlspace into a semi-conditioned space ,one that is close to the temperature of the living spaces above. When that occurs, your floors feel warmer in winter and your energy bills go down!

Mitchell G. 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. A System Designer met with Mitchell, inspected his 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 to keep things dry. The CleanSpace keeps out moisture and the SilverGlo insulates to keep the home warm in winter and cool in the summer. Mitchell has now protected his most important asset - his home!

This homeowner called Fortress Foundation Solutions about a large crawl space under their home that was unusable due to the dirt floor and high moisture levels. System Designer, Danny Camunas, was happy to meet with them, explain the encapsulation products and provide a free, same-day estimate. Ready to move forward, they agreed. Foreman, David Bowers and his crew were soon onsite installing drainage matting, CleanSpace vapor barrier, and a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier to keep things dry. Now this crawl space is dry and the homeowner can enter the clean and bright area for loads of added storage space!

This home was experiencing main level sagging floors, cracks in the walls, and floors separating from walls. There was also issues with water in the crawlspace, humidity and mold in the home. Upon inspection, we found falling insulation, rotting and moldy joists, and a basic, ineffective plastic sheet on the ground. Fortress Foundation Solutions installed a perimeter TripleSafe Sump Pump System, SaniDry Dehumidifer, a total CleanSpace Encapsulation, replaced the rotting joists, and installed SmartJacks for a permanent water-free and structurally stable home.
