Before & After Photos

Here, you can see a nasty, old vapor barrier that has torn and become covered in mold.  Not only that, but the barrier itself has pulled away from the walls and wrinkled up to the point that it is not functional.  The homeowners noticed that their mold problem had reoccurred and that the relative humidity in the crawlspace was still too high.  They opted to contact Healthy Spaces and have a free estimate performed.  During the estimate and evaluation process, the homeowners elected to have CleanSpace engineered film installed because of its great warranty and durability.  Now, they have isolated their crawlspace from the outside air, reduced their overall relative humidity, and created a conditioned crawlspace.  All in all, they have been impressed by lower heating and cooling bills, a more comfortable home, and a brighter, cleaner crawlspace!

In Evansville, IN, the homeowner needed an updated and tightly sealed access door. Many crawl spaces have access wells from the outside. Some access doors are made of plywood, which is not recommended because since it is close to the ground, it will rot. If it is made of plywood, bugs will eat at it and weathering will cause the plywood to warp. If the access door is outside, it is suggested to have an inorganic material to cover the space rather than organic. 

The EverLast access well is an all-plastic door that won't rot, warp, or need paint. Knobs screw into anchors in the wall to draw the door tight against weather stripping to seal off outside air. Animals and other living things will not be able to enter the space since it is tightly sealed. It is important to seal off openings so that any type of weather is not able to enter the crawl space and disrupt the dry climate. A new access door creates peace of mind for the homeowner, knowing that animals or different weather climates were not able to escape inside the space. 

This crawl space in Evansville, IN home, had no vapor barrier and issues of moisture in the basement. Exposed earth contributes to a lot of water vapor into the crawl space air. The earth is damp, and as that damp soil dries beneath the house (in this homeowner's case open basement), the water vapor moves upward. By installing a crawl space vapor barrier it's the perfect way to keep water and moisture from your crawl space.

Healthy Spaces provided moisture protection by installing CleanSpace Drainage Matting under our CleanSpace Liner. Crawl space liners rest directly on the crawl space floor. If your crawl space is flooding, water can be trapped underneath, never making it to your perimeter drain. By installing our CleanSpace Drainage Matting, it has raised dimples that will channel flooding water underneath your crawl space liner, directing it either the perimeter crawl space drain system or the sump pump. The CleanSpace Vapor Barrier is a durable, bright white crawl space liner that installs on the walls and floors, preventing water vapor and humidity from passing through. The CleanSpace liner is a durable 20-mil crawl space liner that converts your crawl space into a usable storage area.

This Evansville, IN homeowner is happy to have a clean and dry environment in their crawl space thanks to Healthy Spaces!

After your crawl space is repaired, we know you will take every measure to keep it in perfect shape. Now that there's no moisture from the earth creeping into your crawl space, it is the perfect time to seal off your crawl space door to keep all conditioned air inside. Leaky crawl space access doors will let cold air in the winter and humid air in the summer, causing condensation, mold, and rot in your crawl space. If you have a wood access door, it will eventually rot and warp and are not tough enough to keep paint on in the damp environment near the ground.  

A snug-fitting all-plastic door that stops air and moisture from entering is the answer. This EverLast crawl space door we installed at this Evansville, IN home seals off outside air, last in the damp environment near the ground, and will look great for years to come. Another great thing about the EverLast door is that it will keep outside air out, never need paint, and never rust or rot.
