This crawl space in Ringgold had water seeping up through the foundation when it rained. The floors of the house were also warped. The homeowner called Fortress Foundation Solutions to solve this problem. After assessing the home, Fortress determined that a full-perimeter WaterGuard, a SmartSump Crawl Space Sump Pump System, a CleanSpace Vapor Barrier, a SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier, and SmartJack Supports were the best solution. The WaterGuard will catch any water coming in and channel it to the SmartSump where it will be pumped out of the crawl space. The SmartJackSupports straighten the floor of the home and add much needed support. This homeowner no longer has to worry about a wet crawl space or bowing floors again!
In order for this homeowner to confidently put a grand piano in their home, our team needed to instal ten SmartJacks. We also fully encapsulated their crawlspace with CleanSpace, SilverGlo and a SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier.
This crawl space in Lynchburg, Virginia was having some problems with water intrusion. The homeowner had an existing sump in the crawl space but it was not operating well enough to keep up with the amount of water in the crawl space. Fortress Foundation Solutions went to the home and fully encapsulated the area with our CleanSpace Vapor Barrier. We also replaced the sump pump the homeowner had with our SmartSump Crawl Space Sump Pump System.
This crawlspace in Lynchburg 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 and SilverGlo Insulation to ensure that this crawlspace will stay clean and dry!
Gavin D. of Wexford Ct. in Lynchburg, VA noticed some musty smells and mildew growing in this crawl space so he called Fortress Foundation Solutions. Chris Guill, system designer, met with Gavin to inspect his crawl space and provided a free, same-day estimate. This homeowner wanted to take care of the standing water, falling-down insulation, and mold and mildew growth so he agreed. Warren Dickerson and his crew were soon onsite removing the old, wet insulation and installing an Ultra sump pump with battery back up, new insulation, CleanSpace vapor barrier and a Sanidry Sedona dehumidifier. Now Gavin and his family live in a home with a clean, healthy crawl space!
