Crawl Space Issues in Cannelton, IN

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.

New Vapor Barrier in Branchville, IN

Homeowner in Branchville, IN had a damp environment in his crawl space underneath his home. Any moisture is bad in a crawl space because not only do insects and critters of all kinds love this type of environment and wet materials, but mold also thrives in it as well. Our client had previously used Healthy Spaces before at a different home so he knew he wanted to give us a call to help him with his unhealthy space.

Our System Design Specialist worked with him to create a plan that he felt comfortable with and would give him peace of mind. Our team installed a complete encapsulation system, along with drainage matting, and crawl space wall insulation.

Because he had a concrete floor with rocks over the top, we installed our CleanSpace drainage matting. This is used when it's difficult to install a drainage system. Installed under our CleanSpace vapor barrier, the matting creates a drainage space and thermal break between CleanSpace and the ground. Next, we installed our SilverGlo Wall Insulation. SilverGlo is infused with graphite, which reflects heat and lower's the material's conductivity. This makes your crawl space and floors above them warmer in the winter and lowers your cost of heating bills. Lastly, our team installed over the top of the drainage matting and SilverGlo our CleanSpace Vapor Barrier. Our CleanSpace Encapsulation System completely isolates your home from the earth by sealing it over the floor and walls.

Vapor Barrier in Branchville, IN

In Branchville, IN, a couple wanted to convert their unusable crawl space into a space for potential storage and to create a healthy environment for the home. A dirt crawl space not only can create potential disasters at home but the space can not be used constructively. Some homes will have plastic liners on the floor of their crawl space, but this does not make it safe to store important papers or things. The dirt is still being exposed and any tiny cracks in the wall will bring in moisture. The couple wanted to make sure the outside air was closed up before officially using the extra space below the home. 

CleanSpace is fitted into a crawl space to completely seal off your home from the earth. It is made up of 20 mils thick plastic liner that has different characteristics of flexibility and is puncture and tear-resistant. It is also bright white, transforming the space into a clean atmosphere. When CleanSpace is installed, it is considered an “indoor space” because of the dry air and spotless look. As soon as the couple saw the crawl space transform into a practical and money-saving space, they were elated!

 

Sump Pump Failure in Cloverport, KY

There was a sump pump in Cloverport, KY, that failed and the homeowners wanted to take action before it worsened. Because of the sump pump failure, the ground in the crawlspace was muddy. Some families want the ability to store keepsake items in a crawlspace if it is dry. A muddy crawlspace would make it difficult and unsafe to store papers because of the possibility of water damage. Water damage not only affects the crawlspace itself but the potential to use the space for more storage.  

 

A Smart Sump pump was installed as well as an EZflow drain to track and remove water that would enter a crawlspace. All openings were closed off to prevent outside air and water from entering. CleanSpace was installed to be spread out on the floor and sides of the crawlspace. A CleanSpace imitates an indoor environment, making it safe to store keepsake items. The homeowners were pleased to know that the crawlspace was repaired with an additional possibility of storage in the home.  

 

New Crawl Space Access in Irvington, KY

Jeremiah in Irvington, KY, called Healthy Spaces because he was interested in installing a crawl space well or access well. After sending our Design Specialist out there, they came up with a solution that would fit Jeremiah's needs. Crawl space access wells can be ugly, deteriorate, and can let in rain, leaves, and debris. The doors will eventually rot and they do not have an airtight seal. Our Turtl crawl space access system is designed to provide clean convenient access to your below-grade crawl space. It's made from rigid plastic so it will never rot, rust, corrode, or need paint! It's built to last and looks great on your home!
