Before & After Photos

A couple in Evansville reached out to Healthy Spaces, in need of basement waterproofing. The wife has health issues ad was worried about mold being able to grow since the basement was humid and wet. It was smart that the homeowners wanted to take action before the problem worsened. If the basement continues to be humid and wet without treatments, then mold will be able to thrive, affecting the health of the homeowners, especially those with allergies or asthma. The homeowners were ready to transform their basement into a livable place and peace of mind. 

To protect the environment of the basement, CleanSpace is installed on the walls. This will protect against water vapor. Mold remediation was performed to remove any mold that was growing or could grow on the surfaces of the basement. To create a constant dry airflow that would eliminate the ability of mold to survive, as well as humidity, the SaniDry Sedona was hooked up and ready to run! A WaterGuard system was installed alongside the walls to catch the water that would leak into the basement and flow down the CleanSpace Once the water is in the WaterGuard, it will flow towards the sump pump that was installed. It thrilled the homeowners to see a dry basement and not have to worry another day about the potential danger to their health. 

An Evansville, IN family truck luck when the wife inherited a home. The only issue with the home was the basement, which had buckling walls. The buckling walls were causing water to leak into the basement whenever it rained, causing the homeowners to stress with the after clean-up. A part of the wall had stair-step cracking caused by the pressure from the soil and water outside the walls pushing into the wall and not being treated for so long. The inherited home started to feel like a burden and a blessing, but the homeowners were willing to change that! 

There were two major issues with the home that needed to be resolved, such as the water leakage and the stabilization of the foundation. To first take care of the water leakage, CleanSpace is put on the walls to protect the vapor barrier. Next, the best solution for stabilizing the structure of the home was to install the PowerBrace system. The PowerBrace system permanently stabilizes the foundation and repairs the cracks that were once there. Once the basement walls were waterproofed and straightened for the homeowners, it was like a weight of worry had been lifted. 

If you have buckling floors in your home, it may be time to schedule a free inspection with us. A similar occurrence happened with a homeowner in Carmi, IL, who had buckling floors in his home. The homeowner was concerned about moisture in his crawl space. Several negative effects can happen if moisture is escaping into your crawl space. Side effects include: buckling hardwood floors, mold, rotting, increased heating and cooling bills, and aggravated asthma and allergies. 

To seal off the crawl space from outdoor air that would otherwise disrupt the environment of the space, CleanSpace is installed. CleanSpace has an antimicrobial additive that prevents mold growth on the liner. A SmartSump is put in to carry water outside the crawl space through a discharge line that leads to outside. The moisture that was present had created buckling floors that needed to be stabilized with SmartJacks. The homeowner's crawl space was transformed into a healthy space where moisture was no longer welcomed! 

When moisture leaks into a crawl space, it can create a humid environment and it will cling to any organic materials, making them soft. This scenario is exactly what happened to a crawl space in Owensville, IN. A homeowner had creaking floors, that were caused by water vapor. Damp wood rots, which enables mold to grow on it. The homeowner wanted to waterproof his crawl space before the problem worsened anymore. 

A drainage matting was laid throughout the space for the CleanSpace to lay on top of. A drainage mat is helpful for water that comes in through the dirt ground to be carried to the sump pump. The CleanSPace is then laid on top of the drainage matting, sealing the floor and walls away from the outdoor air. To pump water out of the crawl space, that does not enter into the spaces in front of the ground, the SmartSump pump takes care of the problem! To create a constant airflow to prevent humidity, the SaniDry Sedona is hooked up. This dehumidifier disposes of water automatically by carrying any water vapor to the SmartSump. The homeowner was pleased to know that their home and health are protected. 

A homeowner in Evansville, IN needed his crawl space's vapor barrier protected, and knew that that was a job for Healthy Spaces. Upon inspection, the crawl space was humid and the dirt floors were damp underneath the black, 6 mil liner.  Fortunately, the humid climate was caught early, leaving the surfaces of the wooden beams mold-free. The homeowner needed the best possible solution set in place to prevent humidity, water, and mold in the crawl space. 

The crawl space was protected against a vapor barrier using CleanSpace to seal the floor and walls. Any water that comes through the ground will not affect the environment, but will instead be directed to the SmartSump that was installed. The crawl space was humid and needed to be controlled by using the SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier. Once a reliable system was established, the homeowner will have peace.
