Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

A homeowner near Sterling VA, called Fortress Foundation Solutions after discovering moisture issues in his crawl space. Efflorescence had built up on the walls from years of moisture seeping through the block. Our System Designer, Riley Ethier, inspected his crawl space and provided a free estimate for an encapsulation. Soon foreman Warren Dickerson and his crew were onsite installing drainage matting, and CleanSpace vapor barrier. The CleanSpace keeps out moisture protecting the wood joists keeping the space dry!

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!

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.

After investigating, he discovered mildew and moisture beginning to damage his wooden floor joists and falling down, moisture-saturated insulation. System Designer Skylar Beverage met with Jason, inspected his 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 the home warm in winter and cool in the summer. Jason has now protected his most important asset - his home!
