Crawl Space Repair Photo Album: Vented Crawl Space Is Not Optimal in McLean, VA
Jerry T. called Fortress Foundation Solutions after learning how air flow in your crawl space can damage your home! His house was built with vents in the crawl space - a common misconception. Jerry met with System Designer Kevin Shannon who explained further that moisture from outside air and standing water causes wood rot, ruins traditional insulation and produces foul air going up and into the home. Kevin offered a free estimate to encapsulate the crawl space with CleanSpace, insulate with SilverGlo and install a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier to keep moisture low. Foreman David Bowers was tasked with installing all of these items and did a fantastic job! Now Jerry's home is protected.
