Fortress Foundation Solutions Before & After Photos

This basement in Cross Junction had a wall that was leaking by the water heater. This can cause rusting and other damage to the water heater. To solve this issue, Fortress installed the WaterGuard system around the water heater and hooked it up to the existing sump pump.

A homeowner near Copper Hill, VA called Fortress Foundation Solutions after finding mold in their crawl space! The air from the crawl space does flow up and into the home - we call it the 'Stack Effect'. System Designer Caleb Stone, met with the homeowner and explained how air from your crawlspace enters your home along with everything in it - odors, and mold spores and dust mite feces. Air, often filled with more moisture, gets sucked into the crawlspace from the outdoors. In this sense, a poorly designed crawl space acts like a bad air machine! To stop the nasty cycle, this homeowner was ready to get an encapsulation. Foreman Travis Farmer and his crew, installed the SilverGlo insulation, CleanSpace vapor barrier and a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier. These work together to keep the crawl space dry and the air humidity low. Now this crawl space is only sending clean, moisture controlled air up into the home.

Fortress Foundation Solutions installed CleanSpace liner, FoamMax insulation, SaniDry dehumidifier, and TripleSafe sump pump with external discharge. 

The crawl space of this home in Grottoes was wet and musty, and really needed some help!

Fortress went out and installed a complete CleanSpace encapsulation, along with a TripleSafe sump pump, and a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier.

This crawlspace in Grottoes was leaking and moldy. The dirt floor was covered in a thin layer of plastic that did not stop water and mud from getting in. The insulation was damp and falling down. 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!
