French Drain Contractor in Maine
& Southeastern New Hampshire
TC Hafford Basement Systems installs a state-of-the-art French drain (aka drain tile) system called WaterGuard – a patented product only available through Basement Systems dealers.
WaterGuard is much more effective than a regular French drain or drain tile system because of its patented design. WaterGuard is specially engineered to sit on the basement footing, keeping it up out of the dirt and mud (the Mud Zone) and making it highly resistant to clogging. A special flange also makes a clean edge at the basement wall and prevents dirt and debris from falling into the system.

History of French Drains
Drain tile and French drain (an image of a clogged French drain pipe is shown below to the right) first started to be used in basement waterproofing projects in the 1920s. Originally designed with clay tile, French drain and drain tile was designed by Henry French in Concord. Given the time, this was an excellent solution. Today, this drainage system lives on, and is generally made out of large, round plastic piping. However, in the 1990s, a more effective alternative has been developed – the WaterGuard drainage channel system.
 French drain systems are usually designed with PVC pipe that is perforated and installed along the interior perimeter of the foundation, or along the exterior as the home is built. Laid underneath the basement floor, it drains water to a gravity drain (uncommon) or to a sump pump (very common).
