Before & After Photos

Most crawlspaces have an entry like this.  A large open space that allows all sorts of undesirable stuff inside--critters, moisture, mold, and more.  The solution that commonly occurs is haphazard at best.  Plywood covering the entrance quickly warps and molds.  Leaving the entrance uncovered is an invitation for an infestation.  Blocking the entrance permenantly isn't possible either.

The team at Healthy Spaces installed an Everlast Crawlspace Door, which is constructed of rigid, durable plastic that won't discolor, warp, or mold.  It sits flush to the entrance, which prevents water intrusion.  In addition to the Everlast door, the team installed a new access well, which will further protect the crawlspace from entryway flooding.  

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. 

An Evansville homeowner called us after noticing water in his crawlspace — but he wasn’t sure if the gutters were the problem or if something bigger was going on underneath the home.

After a full inspection, we designed a complete crawlspace waterproofing and encapsulation system to stop water intrusion, control humidity, and protect the home long-term.

✅ Installed a SmartSump system with airtight lid, WaterWatch alarm, and IceGuard protection
✅ Added StarPipe drainage and extended discharge lines for proper water removal
✅ Installed drainage matting and CleanSpace encapsulation materials for maximum moisture control
✅ Sealed vents, insulated rim joists with spray foam, and added SilverGlo insulation
✅ Installed an EverLast crawlspace door for a tight, durable seal
✅ Added a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier to keep the crawlspace dry year-round

The result? A clean, dry, healthy crawlspace — and a homeowner who no longer has to worry every time it rains.

Before: Water intrusion, moisture concerns, and uncertainty.
After: Permanent protection, controlled humidity, and peace of mind.

Our client had a 6 Mil plastic liner, that easily rips and tears as you can see in the before photo. As well as in the before photo small water puddles throughout his crawlspace. Water in the crawlspace can lead to mold, bad air quality, structural damage and even unwanted pests. Any of these problems in your crawl space is no good to you or your family.

After working with our client we put together their accomplish list to create a healthier plan for their crawlspace! We first installed our CleanSpace 20 Mil thick vapor barrier, that withstands holes and rips in your liner, making it a clean and bright space while also protecting your home from the water seeping up through soil. Next we installed our SmartSump System in the crawlspace which is a extremely effective way to help keep your structural damage to a minimum, and keeps unwanted pests out! Also stops mold growth as well as preventing standing water in your crawlspace. Installing a Sump Pump System will give you peace of mind knowing your home is now protected from more costly damage to your home.

Before
This Darmstadt, IN homeowner was dealing with moisture concerns and visible mold growth in their crawlspace—creating conditions that could impact both indoor air quality and long-term home performance.

After
Our team completed a full crawlspace encapsulation and air quality upgrade designed for lasting protection and comfort. The project included wrapping support piers, installing drainage matting beneath the CleanSpace® liner for enhanced moisture management, adding SilverGlo™ insulation and spray foam rim joist insulation, sealing the entry with an EverLast™ door, and installing a SaniDry™ Sedona dehumidifier to maintain healthy humidity levels. Visible growth along rim boards was addressed during installation, and the space was completed with an Aspen high-performance air purifier featuring advanced three-stage filtration—creating a cleaner, drier, and healthier crawlspace environment.
