Before & After Photos

Penni W. from Haubstadt, IN noticed foundation issues in her basement. The wall was bowing inward causing a crack to form, as well as worry set in. She wanted to address these problems before they got any worse, so she contacted Healthy Spaces to receive a free estimate. Our System Design Specialist, Chris Russell, created a thorough foundation repair and waterproofing plan to restore her basement.

Penni chose to move forward with installing our systems, so our production crew installed our WaterGuard drainage system, our SuperSump sump pump, and wall anchors. This innovative wall anchor system will permanently stabilize your foundation wall by anchoring your walls to the hard-packed virgin soil beyond your foundation. The project took two days, and now the basement is permanently protected, and her peace of mind is restored.

Homeowner Richard G. From Livermore, KY gave Healthy Spaces a call when he was finally done with all of his issues happening in his basement. Water was leaking into his basement from several different areas, and this "drain" wasn't doing its job. Debris had piled up around it, preventing water from going in. A System Design Specialist was sent to Richards home to diagnose and treat the problems that the basement was having.

Together, they talked through a solution that Richard loved. A WaterGuard system was installed around the perimeter of his basement that would direct the water to his new TripleSafe Sump Pump. The Triple Safe sump pump has three sump pumps in one. The first pump will do most of the pumping effectively. The second sump pump will be there in case the first one fails. The second pump is more powerful and has a separate discharge line to give you a boost in the rare cases you need it. The third pump is designed using batteries so it will be there for you if the power goes out. The Triple Safe sump pump is the best option because it adjusts automatically when needed and keeps your basement dry with triple protection! 

Richard can now rest assured knowing that his basement is protected from water. 

Anita M. in Spottsville, KY was frustrated and tired of dealing with the standing water in her basement. Over time, the problem had only gotten worse, and she knew it was time to get in contact with a waterproofing professional. She did her research and was glad to learn that Healthy Spaces had the solution she needed. After speaking with our friendly office staff, she was able to schedule an appointment for System Design Specialist, Damon Cheatham, to come out to give her a free inspection and quote. 

After the inspection, one of our production crews came out and installed a new TripleSafe sump pump to replace the one that wasn't working. This top of the line system sports three pumps in one sump liner that is engineered to work together. A vital part of this pump is the battery backup that kicks in if the power were to go out.

A wet basement is never fun. Not only does it create a lot of work for you to clean up, but it really limits what you can do with your below grade, basement space! It's impossible to finish the space if it floods, especially if you've finished it before and had massive damage. You don't want to store anything down there that you really care about because it might get wet. Suddenly, you lose out on anywhere from 1/3 to 1/2 of your overall square footage because your basement is wet.

This homeowner decided that he would like to be able to use his basement as a storage area without concerns about flooding. No more wet basement for him! He opted to have Healthy Spaces come in and install an interior perimeter drain system, sometimes referred to as a french drain system) to prevent the basement from ever flooding again. In addition, he opted to have CleanSpace Wall System installed over all his basement walls to direct water into the Healthy Spaces Waterguard perimeter drainage system. The CleanSpace Wall system will keep water and water vapor from leaking in the walls and into the basement. He will drastically reduce his relative humidity, lowering his risk for mold growth, musty smells, and water damage. The Waterguard Perimeter drainage system will direct any water intrusion into a SuperSump sump pump to be removed from the basement. Phew! What a lifesaver!

This 100-year-old home that our client was in the process of purchasing in Evansville, IN, had a basement that was showing clear signs of water damage. Evidence of leaking water and excessive moisture in the basement posed a threat to the integrity of the home’s foundation, not to mention creating an uncomfortable, damp living space. Without proper waterproofing, the situation was only going to get worse over time, causing potential structural damage and a higher risk of mold growth.

To address these concerns, we installed our SuperSump Pump System and CleanSpace Wall Vapor Barrier.

1. SuperSump Pump System
To effectively manage water intrusion, we installed our SuperSump® Pump System. This powerful sump pump features a Zoeller® ⅓ horsepower cast-iron pump, capable of moving an impressive 2,220 gallons of water per hour at an 8-foot head. The SuperSump® is designed to keep the basement dry by efficiently removing water and redirecting it away from the foundation, preventing further damage.

2. CleanSpace Wall Vapor Barrier

To address the moisture issue, we installed the CleanSpace® Wall Vapor Barrier. This 100% waterproof plastic vapor barrier is the perfect solution for unfinished basement walls. Not only does it direct any water seepage down into the drainage system, but it also prevents future moisture buildup and mold growth. The bright white appearance of CleanSpace® Wall enhances the lighting in the basement, while its durability ensures it will never peel, chip, or flake like traditional paints or sealants.

The basement is now dry, safe, and protected from future water intrusion. The bright, clean walls give the basement a fresh look and provide the perfect foundation if the homeowners choose to finish the space down the line. Best of all, the homeowner now has peace of mind knowing that their basement and foundation are shielded from the elements.
