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!
Kristie J., who lives near Catlett, VA, had some plumbing issues. While in the crawl space, the plumber noticed vines growing through an open vent. He knew it wasn't good to have a crawl space exposed to the open air. He recommended calling Fortress Foundation Solutions. Our System Designer Skylar Beverage inspected the crawl space and provided a free estimate for an encapsulation. An encapsulation would include drainage matting, CleanSpace vapor barrier and a SaniDry Sedona. The CleanSpace seals the ground from the house and any outside openings, keeping moisture and water away from the wood joists. Our SaniDry Sedona is a cutting-edge basement dehumidifier rated for energy efficiency and powerful enough to keep dry air circulating throughout a 3000 square foot area. The Sedona will ensure your crawl space is protected from excess moisture that can lead to mold growth, wood rot and odors, ensuring a dry, clean space. Now Kristie knows her crawl space won't be growing any more plants or fungus. She has protected her biggest investment - her home!
This homeowner recently purchased this home and was looking to encapsulate the dirt crawlspace, run proper discharge line from her existing SumpPump and install a Sedona dehumidifier.
This sweet couple moved out of city to enjoy their retirement. They are new to the crawl space world and reached out to us to help educate them on effective maintenance. They were very interested in leveling and stabilizing their floors. Our System Designer, Chris Wilmouth, left the homeowners with a solution to address their concerns.
