Emilio E. had taken a look in his crawl space to see about some plumbing repairs. What he saw shocked him - mold and mildew on the woodwork, bugs and spider webs, falling down, moisture-saturated insulation, and stinky, musty smells. He called Fortress Foundation Solutions for a free estimate. System Designer Caleb Stone met with Emilio, inspected his crawl space and provided a free estimate for an encapsulation. Soon a Fortress crew was onsite installing drainage matting, SilverGlo insulation, CleanSpace vapor barrier, and a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier. The CleanSpace is in place to seal the home from the damp earth. Moisture and its damaging effects on the wood structure of the home are kept out. The SilverGlo is installed on the walls and insulates to keep the home warm in winter and cool in the summer. It is moisture resistant and won't get moldy or break down. The final step is the SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier. It removes moisture from the air keeping the crawl space dry. When Emilio looks into his crawl space now, it is clean, dry and he knows his home is protected!
Stephanie C., a homeowner near Merrifield, VA, was ready to put her house on the market. She had the interior ready and was working on the curb appeal. Prospective buyers had commented on the front steps - the walkway had dropped almost 2 inches from the steps! To make up for the crevice, a red step stone was haphazardly placed there. She called Fortress Foundation Solutions for help. System Designer Riley Ethier introduced the benefits of our PolyLevel Injection Foam. This foam lifts and levels concrete quickly. Foreman, Tim Gregorin and his crew fixed Stephanie's sidewalk and made her steps look great. Now Stephanie has the curb appeal she was looking for and knows this will help bring top dollar!
Makayla P. called Fortress Foundation Solutions after noticing musty smells coming from her crawl space.

System Designer Skylar Beverage met with Makayla, inspected her crawl space 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 her home warm in winter and cool in the summer. Makayla has now protected her most important asset - her home!
After a large storm in the area, James H. began to notice moisture in his basement block wall. James' father had been in the basement waterproofing industry, so he knew that this was not something to leave unattended. He asked his father who he would recommend in the area to do the work, and his father suggested Fortress. After calling to schedule an appointment, System Designer Chris Wilmouth went out to assess the issue. He created a custom solution for James' basement, including a WaterGuard System, SumpPump, Vapor Barrier, and SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier. After explaining all of these products and the work that would take place, James accepted the plan that Chris put together for his home. Later, Foreman Cope and his crew came to install. They were able to get the project done on time and leave the space clean and ready to be used again. James was so thankful at the end of this process for the peace of mind he now had that his basement would be dry for years to come!
