TC Hafford Basement Systems Before & After Photos

Looking to both waterproof and finish their basement, this homeowner living in Hope, ME contacted us at TC Hafford Basement Systems shortly after seeing us on their TV. After giving the homeowner a free estimate on the job, our crew got to work protecting the space from future water build up by installing a WaterGuard system beneath the surface of the floor. To remove any water collected by the WaterGuard, a TripleSafe sump pump was put in; with the WaterGuard feeding directly into it. Next, to brighten up the interior of the basement and provide a layer covering the cold concrete walls, BrightWall panels were installed around the entire basement. Finally, TD Elite Flooring was installed across the floor of the basement. Now this basement is protected against any future leaks and has a pleasant finished look for the homeowner.

Living with a damp basement for some time, this Hope, ME homeowner was in the market for a solution to their problem. After a call to us at TC Hafford Basement Systems and a free estimate from our sales rep., they were ready to have us get started on a WaterGuard installation to protect their basement. When our installation crew arrived at the home, they got started on the project by excavating the existing slab to replace it with a fresh slab fitted with a Drainage Matting beneath. A WaterGuard piping system was installed around the perimeter of the new basement floor, hidden just below the surface. Once the slab dries, the WaterGuard piping will capture any moisture leaking in through the foundation in the future through small slits along the lower edge of the piping. The WaterGuard feeds directly into a TripleSafe sump system installed in the floor as well. The TripleSafe houses three pumps, including a battery-powered backup pump to keep the basement completely free of water year-round. Finally, the discharge line leaving the home was fitted with IceGuard & LawnScape pipe segments to provide further protection against ice or debris that might have otherwise blocked the line and caused problems.

With these new installations below their home, this homeowner now has the permanent waterproofing solution they were looking for. The WaterGuard & TripleSafe combination will maintain a dry basement for this homeowner for years to come!

System Design Specialist Craig Z. met with Brooks, ME homeowner to give a free estimate on foundation work. The homeowner wanted to seal and stabilize their exterior foundation stone wall which was cracking and crumbling. We removed the old stones and poured a StableLock wall. The StableLock system allows us to install a fresh, smooth concrete wall that reinforces an existing wall without having to lift the home. Now our homeowners can rest knowing their home is safe!

This Brooks, Maine home was under contract to sell but a home inspection revealed the foundation had a bowing wall, and the basement needed a sump pump. To repair the foundation wall, we installed StableLock Wall, which is a new concrete wall poured next to the failing wall. We add extra supports to keep the home safe and stable, while also preventing the original wall from continuing to bow or shift. Additionally, we installed a TripleSafe sump pump to manage the groundwater, pumping it away from the home to keep the basement dry. The TripleSafe has two Zoeller pumps and a third battery backup pump, so it will operate in all conditions!

Homeowners in Jackson, Maine had a property that had been built in three sections over the years, which in turn created three separate foundation area. One of those was a crawl space that was wet and need to be encapsulated. After providing a free estimate, the owners scheduled their project with Foreman Greg. He installed drainage matting to control the groundwater, and then our CleanSpace vapor barrier liner to seal out moisture. Water in a crawl space can create a whole host of problems, from poor air quality in the home, to odors, and even structural issues from the wooden support beams getting moldy or rotting. This crawl space is now protected to keep the home healthy!
