Before & After Photos

This crawl space in Roanoke 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. Fortress solved these problems by installing a CleanSpace Encapsulation with a SmartSump Crawl Space Sump Pump System to ensure that this crawl space will stay clean and dry!

This crawlspce in Bent Mountain had water pooling and falling insulation. Fortress cleaned up the insulation and installed a SmartSump system to keep the crawlspace from flooding.

This crawlspace/basement in Greenville was dirty and water damaged from repeated flooding. Fortress solved these issues by installing a CleanSpace Encapsulation with a TripleSafe Sump System. 

The crawlspace that Fortress Foundation sales representative, Zach Bolluck, inspected in Natural Bridge Station, VA was a complete disaster. The floor of the crawlspace was either loose dirt or dirt covered with a thin plastic sheet. Plastic sheets used to cover the dirt ground in crawlspaces in never a permanent solution. To be honest, it really is not a temporary solution either. Along with unnecessary debris, this crawlspace was also covered with water. The drainage systems in place were ineffective; they did not capture or drain the water that was infiltrating the crawlspace. One of the major flaws of the existing drainage systems was the faulty sump pump. Without a properly working sump pump, a crawlspace is doomed to be moist, which may result in mold or wood rot (like in this home’s case). During this four day project, Fortress Foundation Solutions installed all of the proper equipment to encapsulate and waterproof the crawlspace. The first task Fortress always completes in any crawlspace is removing all debris. We like to have a clear space to work.

This crawlspace was dirty and leaking. Mold was growing and causing a fowl smell. Fortress installed a CleanSpace Encapsulation to solve all of these problems. Now the space is clean and dry!
