Healthy Spaces Before & After Photos

Here, you can really see the difference that CleanSpace makes!  The initial crawlspace was lumpy dirt floor, covered in a clear plastic sheet.  When the sheet was pulled back, it was amazing to see how moldy and gross that plastic had become and how tattered and shredded it was.  Underneath the plastic, there was a failed trench system for drainage.  Instead of helping control the influx of water, it trapped over 4" of standing water in the crawlspace, which lead to mold and fungus growth among other problems.  

Damon Cheatham with Healthy Spaces came out and inspected the crawlspace.  He designed a comprehensive water removal system to keep the crawlspace dry all the time!  The installation team started by remediating the mold, removing the debris, and leveling the floor of the crawlspace.  Next, they re-dug the trench system to fit an EZFlow drainage system, which connects to a SuperSump sump pump system to remove the water.  The entire crawlspace needed to be more energy efficient as well, so SilverGlo insulation was installed along the walls and in the spaces between the subfloor joists.  The crew installed 1,134 sq feet of Cleanspace, two vent covers, and an EverLast Crawlspace well and door for entry.  Finally, a Sani-dry dehumidifier was installed in the crawlspace to keep the space conditioned and the relative humidity low so mold won't grow in there again.

Homeowner Richard G. From Livermore, KY gave Healthy Spaces a call when he was finally done with all of his issues happening in his basement. Water was leaking into his basement from several different areas, and this "drain" wasn't doing its job. Debris had piled up around it, preventing water from going in. A System Design Specialist was sent to Richards home to diagnose and treat the problems that the basement was having.

Together, they talked through a solution that Richard loved. A WaterGuard system was installed around the perimeter of his basement that would direct the water to his new TripleSafe Sump Pump. The Triple Safe sump pump has three sump pumps in one. The first pump will do most of the pumping effectively. The second sump pump will be there in case the first one fails. The second pump is more powerful and has a separate discharge line to give you a boost in the rare cases you need it. The third pump is designed using batteries so it will be there for you if the power goes out. The Triple Safe sump pump is the best option because it adjusts automatically when needed and keeps your basement dry with triple protection! 

Richard can now rest assured knowing that his basement is protected from water. 

Our client in Livermore, KY, would get water in their crawl space every time that it rained. They also knew that their vapor barrier in the crawl space would need to be replaced as well. After seeing a TV commercial for Healthy Spaces, they gave us a call for a free, no-obligation inspection. After our System Design Specialist, Damon inspected their home, he found a couple of other issues that would also need taken care of.

Because of the high moisture in the crawl space, it caused mold so our team would first need to remediate that. Next, our team sealed all his vents and completed encapsulated his crawl space. Encapsulating your crawl space prevents water vapor and humidity from passing through. CleanSpace vapor barrier has a mold-resistant additive that won't support mildew or mold growth. The combination of these products ensures the crawl space will remain a clean, energy-efficient space and gave our client peace of mind knowing that his crawl space will stay dry!

Anita M. in Spottsville, KY was frustrated and tired of dealing with the standing water in her basement. Over time, the problem had only gotten worse, and she knew it was time to get in contact with a waterproofing professional. She did her research and was glad to learn that Healthy Spaces had the solution she needed. After speaking with our friendly office staff, she was able to schedule an appointment for System Design Specialist, Damon Cheatham, to come out to give her a free inspection and quote. 

After the inspection, one of our production crews came out and installed a new TripleSafe sump pump to replace the one that wasn't working. This top of the line system sports three pumps in one sump liner that is engineered to work together. A vital part of this pump is the battery backup that kicks in if the power were to go out.

Here, you can see the before and the after of a fungus removal treatment performed by the Healthy Spaces installation team. The fungus was growing along the wooden subfloor boards throughout the crawlspace due to an increased relative humidity of a vented crawlspace. In order to make sure that the fungus does not reoccur, the homeowners have elected to have their West Louisville, KY crawlspace encapsulated by Healthy Spaces.
