TC Hafford Basement Systems Before & After Photos

A Harborside, ME homeowner was experiencing heavy water coming in through their basement walls and floor. The original floor was cracked and leaking, so we poured a brand new slab floor complete with WaterGuard, a perimeter drainage system. WaterGuard channels any moisture to the new TripleSafe sump pump, which then carries the water away from the home through an exterior buried discharge line.  The basement is now protected from water damage so the homeowner can use their space with confidence.

With a relatively old sump pump in their basement, this Old Town, ME homeowner had begun to notice their basement would retain some water after rainfall. Looking to remedy this problem, the homeowner hired us at TC Hafford Basement Systems. As soon as our crew was able to get out to the home, they began work on the basement foundation by installing a WaterGuard piping system around the majority of the perimeter of the space. These pipes lay beneath the surface of the floor where they trap incoming water and guide it to the TripleSafe pump installed in the existing sump. The TripleSafe will force any collected water out of the home through a PVC discharge line protected by both an IceGuard and LawnScape segments. With both the WaterGuard system as well as a TripleSafe pump, this basement will now be protected against moisture build up without the water ever reaching the surface of the floor and remain protected even during power outages.

Now that their basement is properly waterproofed, this homeowner can utilize the space without fearing water damaging their property. The WaterGuard piping will keep this basement floor dry for years into the future.

A homeowner in Old Town, ME, reached out to TC Hafford Basement Systems to address cold drafts coming through the floor of their indoor porch. They wanted a solution that would improve comfort without disrupting the appearance of the space. Our team conducted a thorough assessment and determined that Dr. Energy Saver spray foam insulation would be the perfect fit for the job. We applied the spray foam to the underside of the porch flooring, creating a solid barrier to keep the cold out. After the installation, the homeowner noticed an immediate difference in temperature and was extremely pleased with how much warmer the space had become.

Homeowners from Verona Island, Maine contacted us for a free estimate to install a sump pump and perimeter drainage system. Their basement was often flooding, and they were tired of dealing with the wet mess. We installed WaterGuard perimeter drainage system, which captures any water seeping in from the walls or floor. WaterGuard connects to the new TripleSafe sump pump, bringing the water to the sump to be pumped away from the home. The TripleSafe sump system has two Zoeller pumps, as well as a third battery backup pump. Even if your home loses power during a storm, the TripleSafe will keep operating, protecting your basement.

We helped homeowners in Bucksport, Maine with their dirt floor crawl space that was allowing water to easily seep in. Over time, moisture in a crawl space causes musty odors, mold, and wood rot, putting your home and indoor air quality at risk. We encapsulated this crawl space with CleanSpace vapor barrier, sealing water out. A SmartSump pumps groundwater away from the home through an exterior buried discharge line. The owners opted to go with the UltraSump batter backup pump to ensure the system runs in all conditions, even when the home loses power. A SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier was also installed. Not only does it control the humidity to a healthy level, it also has a MERV 8 filter that removes allergens such as mold spores.
