Healthy Spaces Before & After Photos

Homeowners from Otwell, IN would notice water seeping in their basement every time it rained. Not only was water a problem, but they were also having mold growth. They knew that it couldn't be healthy for their family. They finally got tired of feeling stressed and overwhelmed, so they reached out to Healthy Spaces for a free estimate.

Design Specialist, Mike McAtee, assisted the homeowners in deciding all of the necessities for a dry, healthy basement. They began the process with a fungus remediation process to make sure the spores were gone which meant clean air for the home. Secondly, they installed a WaterGuard System. This drainage system takes water straight to the sump pump and out of the basement through discharge lines. Lastly, CleanSpace was installed to give the basement a finished look on a budget. 

These homeowners are so happy with the finished project and now have the peace of mind they've always dreamed of having. 

A homeowner in Washington, IN, wanted to sell their home soon but wanted to take care of the cracks in the basement wall. This is a clever approach since this will increase the value of their home after. Foundation issues impact three important parts of your life, such as the impact on the safety of your home, your home’s value, and your peace of mind that is at risk. The cause of cracks in the walls is because of foundation settlement. Settlement is the movement your home experiences when the soil below can no longer support its weight. By repairing the cracks in the walls, the home has a chance of creating a higher value for itself.  

To bring the wall together again, the GeoLock Wall Anchor System wall is set into place. Wall anchor systems comprise galvanized steel earth anchors that are embedded in the soil out away from your foundation wall. They connect the wall to steel wall plates with galvanized steel rods. A benefit of a wall anchor system is the ability to be tightened during dry periods. The GeoLock wall anchors have a higher soil capacity, so they provide greater stability and are designed to straighten the failed wall. By taking action and improving the foundation of their home, they can now sell the home in the future with no trouble.

Karleen H. from Cannelton, IN had recently bought a new home.  The Inspector didn't find any mold, but after moving in, the crawl space smelled very musty. They hadn't been down there since they moved in but knew that they needed to turn this job over to the professionals. They gave Healthy Spaces a call and we went out to do a free no-obligation inspection.

System Design Specialist, Damon Cheatham, inspected the home and proposed a solution. First, the mold filled vapor barrier was pulled up by our install crew. Not only that, but the barrier itself has pulled away from the walls and wrinkled up to the point that it is not functional. From there, we installed CleanSpace. Our CleanSpace encapsulation system is lined in crawl spaces to permanently separate your home from the ground. This is part of a healthy crawl space and a healthy home. The new SmartSump sump pump is used for your crawl space drainage system. It is designed just for crawl spaces because the liner and lid form a tight seal around the CleanSpace liner.

Karleen is happy with her transformed crawl space and is even happier that the mold smell is gone.

If you're like me, going into a crawl space is the last thing that I want to do. But when it comes to the health of your home and your family, this is the worst thing to do! Without a reliable sump pump system in your crawl space, the space will still be vulnerable to groundwater, as well as unnoticed plumbing leaks. 

For this Clarkson, KY homeowner, we installed our SmartSump Crawl Space Sump Pump. Coming equipped with a sump alarm and an optional battery backup, it is exactly what you need to ensure your crawl space is staying dry all the time! Should you have any water from a plumbing leak, it first passes by the alarm, then drains into the sump pump. The alarm will sound so you know you have a leak in your crawl space - giving you peace of mind knowing you're protected.

Homeowners in Cloverport, KY called Healthy Spaces in a panic when they noticed water in their basement. They were tired of constantly worrying about what could happen to their home if they weren't home when it rained, so they decided to find a solution. 

Design Specialist, Bob Roberts, came to the customers home to help provide the best solution. 

In this home, we installed our popular WaterGuard system with a new sump pump. The WaterGuard system is installed along the perimeter of the basement and has a special flange to catch wall moisture. If water does happen to come in, it is directed through the WaterGuard into the SuperSump, then removed far from the basement through the discharge line.
