Healthy Spaces Before & After Photos

You can see how Brightwall looks after it is installed. It helps direct water toward the sump pump in order for the basement to be drained more effectively. 

Here is a picture of a house with windows before and after the Healthy Spaces team fixed them up. Windows can be helpful in keeping moisture out just as well as a well sealed house. 

It's important to protect your crawl space from future water that finds its way into the crawlspace through the dirt floors.  A homeowner in Rockport, Kentucky, wanted to add drainage matting to properly protect the space. A dimpled Polyethylene membrane allows water to flow to the sump pump. It also gives an extra cushion for the CleanSpace liner to be secured on top of. 

Homeowners in Hanson, KY, purchased their home over 10 years ago. They recently began to renovate their home when they discovered that their floors were creaking and were beginning to sag. They were afraid that the issue would get worse, so they decided to contact Healthy Spaces. 

Upon inspection, our Design Specialist, Damon, found high humidity which was causing the deterioration of the floor joists in the crawl space. The weakened girders and floor joists are unable to continue supporting the weight above, and the floor above the crawl space becomes bouncy, soft, and may begin to sag. 

Tad and his crew installed several SmartJacks in the crawl space. SmartJacks are used to permanently lifts and stabilizes existing beams and floor joists in the crawl space. Steel columns are secured to the beams or joists. Heavy-duty rods allow for adjustment and a custom fit for each SmartJack System installed. 

This Reed, KY homeowner had noticed that his home would never stay the same temperature. It was humid and hot in the summer, and the air conditioner was always running. In the winter, it was frigid, and with the heat running and the floors were always cold as well. The homeowner decided to give us a call to diagnose the issues that were happening.

Design Specialist, Damon Cheatham, was to the rescue. When he arrived, he greeted the homeowners and proceeded to do a thorough inspection of the crawl space. It was humid and damp, and the previous vapor barrier wasn't doing its job. Damon recommended a new vapor barrier to keep the crawl space dry and seal away the outside moisture and air. The crew installed a 6mil liner to the crawl space to help with this. 

These homeowners are very satisfied with the end result and have already noticed a financial difference in their monthly electric bills.
