Before & After Photos

Water had begun to seep into April's basement in Evansville, IN. After hearing from a friend who used Healthy Spaces, she decided to give us a call! After one of our System Design Specialists completed a thorough inspection, the best option was for our Lead Foreman to install a TripleSafe sump pump system, WaterGuard, a Sedona Dehumidifier, and line the walls with CleanSpace. As seen in the before picture, water coming in where the wall meets the floor. By installing WaterGuard and a TripleSafe sump pump will keep her basement dry all the time!

Here is a sump pump that was installed and this shows what it looks like before concrete is laid and after. This process takes a lot of percise digging and laying of concrete and other materials in order to ensure the drainage of water in a clean, safe, and efficient way.

The crawl space in this Evansville, IN home was not a place you wanted to be. It was wet and growing mold, giving the are an overall damp feeling. Since crawl spaces are the lowermost points of a home, the "Stack Effect" explains that air flows in your home from top to bottom, meaning that the mold in the crawl space can be easily breathed in by those upstairs, causing a serious problem. 

Here you can see in the before and after photo that our team worked to remove all the debris and organic material from the crawl space. With that out of the way, they could start the mold removal process. The first step is to seal off openings to prevent cross-contamination. The second step is to remove airborne contaminants by using air scrubbers. Next, we used a HEPA vacuum to remove any loose contaminants. And lastly, we applied a solution that foams on contact, then it penetrates the soil load which will leave a contaminate free surface.

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.

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.
