Healthy Spaces Before & After Photos

In Evansville, IN, the home was for sale, but when the inspection report was completed, it was reported that water was finding its way inside the crawl space through the entry door located outside. The panel was not secured in a way, resulting in water being able to seep through the sides. For the home to complete the inspection test, this would need to be taken care of. The realtor reached out to Healthy Spaces to handle the issue!

The old plywood panel that was used needed to be discarded and replaced with the EverLast Panel. The EverLast Panel is all plastic, so it will not rot, warp, or need paint. Knobs screw into the anchors in the wall and draw the door tight against weather stripping to seal off outside air. Once the job was completed, the realtor was able to sell the home!

In Evansville, IN, a homeowner contacted Healthy Space for a free inspection. Upon inspection, the crawl space had water standing on the 6 mil liner. The humid air smelled like mold, and when the wooden beams were examined closer, mold spores were spread throughout. The homeowner was ready to get the ball rolling and cast their worries away!

Mold remediation was completed to remove and treat any mold that is and would be on organic surfaces. EZ Flow drainage was put in to increase void space which provides improved water flow rates up to 35 percent. Next, a drainage matting is laid on the ground to direct water to the SmartSump that is installed. Once the drainage matting is completed, CleanSpace is put on top to seal the space from the outside air. The crawl space was not only protected against the weather but looked stunning!

In Uniontown, KY, Healthy Spaces received a call from a homeowner concerning their home's foundation. The foundation and bricks were cracking and sinking. The home sits on a crawl space, and when the crawl space was inspected, cracks were forming on the walls. The saying," it gets worse before it gets better" does not apply to foundation settlement. The issue will continue to worsen until the problem is dealt with. 

The push-pier system reaches greater depths than other options. An external sleeve is used to strengthen the pier system directly below the bracket to prevent kinking and bending and ensure a vertical installation in competent soils. Hydraulic hoses such as the blue and red ones pictured below have a gauge that shows how far down the pier is in the ground and how much more hydraulic pressure needs to be added.  While this process is happening, cracks are inspected to ensure that the home settlement is fixed. The homeowner was relieved to have a permanent solution set in place. 

A home in New Harmony, IN, had wooden floors that were starting to become uneven. The homeowner reached out to us, in hopes that we would have the best solution for her home. The flooring was uneven due to the humidity and moisture present in the crawl space. The homeowner was interested in encapsulating her crawl space when she heard about CleanSpace. 

Home encapsulation is a rewarding process to witness. A drainage matting is first laid out across the floor of the crawl space. A dimpled polyethylene membrane under the CleanSpace liner allows water to flow to a sump in a crawl space. CleanSpace is then laid on top and sealed to exclude outdoor air from disrupting the environment again. Once the project was completed, the homeowner peered inside her crawl space and was amazed by the transformation! 

Homeowners in Huntingburg, IN, had a recurring problem for the past few years. Each time it rained, water would leak into the basement, causing damp floors and a humid climate. Over time, the humidity had formed mold that was starting to form on the walls and corners of the basement. The homeowners contacted us for a FREE inspection to see what could be done. The basement needed a little TLC, and that's exactly what Healthy Spaces could handle. 

The basement needed a proper drainage system to empty the water out and away from the home. The WaterGuard is a French drain-style wall gap that will catch water from the wall, as well as dirt and debris from the basement floor. Water is then directed to the UltraSump pump that was installed to retain a dry space. Water in the sump pump is disposed of through the IceGuard system located outside. It empties water out and away from the home. Once the waterproofing system was completed, the homeowners were impressed with how a simple system such as theirs, could keep their home dry for years to come!
