A modernized and clean crawl space was a wish for a homeowner in Hanson, KY. Modernizing a crawl space can be a good thing if done correctly. The crawl space consisted of pink insulation that is considered “out of date” compared to the great innovations that can be installed. The pink insulation is pointless because if it gets humid in a crawl space, it will drip down and not work as intended. Upgrading to a dry, clean crawl space is any homeowner’s dream!
The pink insulation is referred to as fiberglass floor insulation, and when moisture is mixed in the air, it is a very bad combination! The insulation was taken out of the crawl space while CleanSpace was put all around the floor and sides of the space. This type of liner will save you more money than fiberglass insulation since it protects the space from the outside climate. A SmartSump Pump and SaniDry Sedona are installed in the space. The SaniDry Sedona will create a dry air flow at all times. Once the crawl space was completed, the homeowner had a modernized, money-saving space!
In Henderson KY, a family reached out about a concern that water puddles were in their crawl space. A swimming pool is fun, but water in a crawl space? No thank you! Water in crawl spaces can create humidity and then mold can grow in any processed organic areas. When a crawl space has any open areas, then the climate outdoors will sneak in, which is something that can be prevented.
A great entryway that the family decided to purchase was the Turtl. The Turtl is a brown entry door that can be locked from the outside and seals the crawl space off from the outdoor environment. CleanSpace was installed throughout the crawl space to prevent water from reaching the crawl space air. A SmartSump Pump and SaniDry Sedona were installed. A SmartSump Pump helps pump water out of the crawl space while the SaniDry Sedona keeps the air dry. Once the crawl space was completed with all the necessities, the family was ecstatic to know that their space would be protected for years to come!
A basement in Evansville, IN, needed a little love. The window located on the top middle section of one of the basement walls needed to be replaced and sealed correctly. Since the window was not sealed correctly, it was allowing moisture to enter the basement. Over time, moisture in the basement may cause mold spores to spread, leaving health at risk. Prolonged mold exposure can cause asthma. The home homeowners were eager to replace the window!
The EverLast window was installed to replace the old window. The EverLast window is energy efficient with all-vinyl windows that are double-pane glass. This window makes it perfect for a damp environment that is close to the ground. Once the window was replaced, it gave the space a sense of redemption. It thrilled the homeowners that they were able to look through their basement windows without seeing rust.
Mold remediation and total basement finishing were requested from a couple in Evansville, IN. The spouse wanted to convert the basement into an all-black room for gaming, but the mold was an issue they needed to resolve. Mold is a living organism that breathes air, consumes food, and requires water to survive. When their food source is killed off, along with creating a dry air flow, then mold will not be able to survive. The couple was ready to remove any mold and start the process of making their dream gaming room.
Mold remediation was performed on all walls of the basement. To accomplish the black gaming room, Basement To Beautiful panels would coincidentally match that wish. Basement To Beautiful panels are waterproof, insulated walls that will not allow mold to grow on the walls. These panels eliminate conventional stud framing and fiberglass insulation. Once the basement was completed, the couple was ecstatic that their unique look turned out great!
A homeowner in Owensboro, KY reached out about a concern about mold growing in the crawl space. When mold spores find the right combination of temperature, food source, and moisture, they will start to grow. When mold grows, it reproduces more airborne seeds to grow more mold. Just like a dandelion seed, mold seeds are like tiny parachutes that float through the air. Ending the mold spore cycle will protect the homeowner in the future.
To give the homeowner a sense of security, mold remediation was performed throughout the crawl space. Every nick and cranny where mold was seen, was scrubbed and sprayed away. To protect the crawl space from any outside air leaks or water, CleanSpace was laid throughout the ground and sides of the crawl space. A SaniDry Sedona was hooked up to create a dry air flow since mold can thrive in 70% to 90% humidity. Once the mold is controlled and prevented, the homeowner will have peace of mind knowing that their health is not at risk.
