Healthy Spaces Before & After Photos

Janice B. knew that her basement needed upgrades. She had been living in this home for numerous years and it needed a refresher. She also had issues with water intruding in her basement and knew that issue needed to be fixed before she spent the money on updating her space. Without further ado, gave Healthy Spaces a call to get her project started!

Not only did Janice B. from Evansville, IN get a new WaterGuard basement waterproofing system installed, she also decided to upgrade her basement walls with our EverLast wall panels. The WaterGuard system was installed around the perimeter of her basement catching any water that intrudes and taking it directly to the sump pump. From here, the water will be taken out through discharge lines. The EverLast wall panels are hard, durable, and won't dent like drywall. Along with that, they will never get moldy, rot, or get ruined by a flood or leak- even if the water is a foot deep for a week! They really brighten up the space with their beige and white color, too.

Janice is thrilled with her decision to get her basement waterproofed and the first step of her Total Basement Finishing journey! 

Here you can see the real difference that Waterguard and Brightwall systems can make in your Evansville, IN basement.  In the first picture, you can see the mineral build up and staining present n the block concrete foundation walls and concrete slab of the basement.  This staining can also be a breeding ground for mold.  In the second picture, you can see that the Waterguard basement perimeter drainage system was installed and the Brightwall wall system attached to direct wall moisture into the Waterguard system.  The two components now direct all wall moisture and groundwater seepage into the drains, to the sump pump system to be pumped out of the basement and far away from the home.

This Evansville, IN family got very anxious every time it would rain because the horrible cracks in their basement walls made for an easy path for water to come in. Foundation wall cracks are nothing to take lightly. Their foundation walls were showing "staircase" cracks, indicating bowing or buckling walls. We determined that our patented PowerBrace system was perfect to fix this. As for the leaking water coming into their home, our WaterGuard would guarantee the water to be kept out, providing a healthy space for their family. 

Our Healthy Spaces team installed PowerBraces to support the basement wall and allow for potential straightening over time. The PowerBraces patented system allows for the tightening of the wall to improve the condition of the wall over time. The beams are zinc coated making them resistant to corrosion, reduces abrasion and wear, and creates a non-toxic surface. The beams also have a clean-cut appearance. The PowerBrace system utilizes a joist reinforcement method that distributes the load of the home, evenly as to not damage your floor system. Secondly, the WaterGuard and new sump pump were installed. WaterGuard effectively captures wall and floor seepage before it damages your basement floor. The WaterGuard drainage system sits on the top of the footing inside the basement so the pipes do not get clogged by mud or debris. The sump pump then effectively removes the water from the home. Lastly, the homeowners decided to use Cleanspace as an economical way to cover the basement walls. This 20-mil thick reinforced plastic liner will stop water vapor from permeating the walls, as well as drain wall leaks. The homeowners now have the peace of mind that they've always dreamed of. They are so happy with the finished product. 

his homeowner in Mount Carmel, IL had a musty smell in their basement. They had no water issues in their basement but they have a small crawl space under their home that they never went into. They finally said "enough is enough," and decided to call Healthy Spaces.

We encapsulated the crawl space with a CleanSpace encapsulation and put spray foam in the rim joists of the crawl space to keep the area sealed. We also installed our Ultimate Energy Savings package, which includes SilverGlo wall insulation panels to keep heat in and create a vapor barrier.

These homeowners in Mount Carmel, IL, were experiencing a lot of water in their basement whenever it would rain, that is until Healthy Spaces came and permanently waterproofed their basement. The Healthy Spaces team also installed CleanSpace liner to the foundation walls, waterproofed the perimeter with WaterGuard and installed our innovative and effective TripleSafe sump pump. Now these homeowners in Mount Carmel, IL, have a dryer and brighter basement!
