Healthy Spaces Before & After Photos

This homeowner in Fredonia, KY, had their basement flood years ago. Since then, they've had mold continuously growing in their closets. They've tried dehumidifier after dehumidifier and they kept burning out. Even worse, one of their children was constantly sick due to asthma. That's when they knew they needed to call the experts at Healthy Spaces to eliminate their moisture and mold problem once and for all!

Our Design Specialist, Abe Ford, quickly came to evaluate the situation. He concluded that in order to eliminate the moisture completely and keep the mold from growing back, to install a SanidDry XP Basement Air System. The SaniDry XP can remove up to 109 liters of water per day, it has an ENERGY STAR® rating, and has ductwork compatible for drying finished spaces. Because these homeowners wanted to locate the SaniDry in one place and dry air in another, we needed to duct the air by including the SaniDry XP Ducting. 

Homeowner Sandy, from Sturgis KY, didn't use her basement for much. What she did use it for was the storage of miscellaneous and seasonal items. When she would go down there, she always thought it had a musty odor but didn't think of the things that could be growing in the warm and damp climate. Water would also sneak into her basement during storms and showers, occasionally leaving a puddle. Sandy finally decided to get professional help to see what could be done about these issues. 

Healthy Spaces sent a Design Specialist, Bob Roberts, to Sandy's home to meet for her free inspection. During this meeting, Sandy mentioned that she wanted no more water intrusion and wanted to make her basement a healthy and safe place to be. Sandy agreed on installing a WaterGuard system. This piping system collects water at the perimeter of your basement and safely drains it into an unseen sump pump. 

Sandy's basement is now clean and dry so she can use the space for storage, recreational purposes, or to finish for additional living space. 

The crawl space in this Morganfield, KY home was not a place you wanted to be. It was wet and growing mold, giving the area 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 bottom to top, meaning that the mold in the crawl space can be easily breathed in by those upstairs, causing a serious problem. Homeowner Ann A. knew that her crawl space wasn't in the best shape, but she had no idea how severe the mold really was until System Design Specialist, Scott Schaum, completed an inspection on it.

Following the inspection, Scott sat down with Ann and explained the best route to take regarding cleaning up the crawl space and making her home a healthy place to be. He recommended a mold remediation treatment, and she agreed. They got it scheduled and our Mold Remediation crew was there to do the job. Our remediation process includes removing all mold-damaged materials, drying out the basement or crawl space, and thoroughly cleaning all surfaces. We use safe, effective cleaning products, and all of our technicians are trained and certified in professional mold remediation techniques that won't spread the mold in your home.

Homeowner in New Harmony, IN was experiencing stair-step cracking throughout his basement wall. There are a number of potential causes of cracked and bowing foundation walls, but the main issue is the pressure from foundation soils. Installing Geo-Lock Wall Anchors, the anchors aren't affected by the soil constantly moving. Foundation wall anchors extend out to the stable, hard-packed soil beyond your home, anchoring themselves there and bracing the foundation wall. 

Mike & Terri of New Harmony, IN, were experiencing their doors sticking, cracks in the interior walls around door frames, and could tell that their floors had a slope and not level. After doing a Google search on companies that did structural repair for sagging floors, they came across Healthy Spaces. After spending some time reading their reviews and looking at past work examples on their website, they decided to give them a call for a free, no-obligation inspection. 

After doing a thorough inspection, it was discovered that their floor joists were becoming weakened and started bending. Our team installed a new supplemental beam, along with 10 SmartJacks throughout the crawl space. Our SmartJack system permanently lifts and stabilizes existing beams and floor joists in your crawl space. Steel columns are secured to the beams or joists in the crawl space.
