TC Hafford Basement Systems Before & After Photos

A Wells, ME homeowner reached out to TC Hafford Basement Systems for help with their summer home. They wanted to insulate their pipes under the house to help save on energy bills. We were able to install Spray Foam Insulation around the pipes and rim joists to keep everything air tight and free from moisture by the ocean.

System Design Specialist Josh H. met with Wells, ME homeowners to assess their basement. The owners were tired of having a freezing basement and wanted to know their options to insulate the space. We removed their old damp insulation and installed SprayFoam insulation on the walls. SprayFoam creates an air and moisture tight seal, filling hard to get nooks and crannies. The owners can enjoy a warmer basement as well as cheaper energy bills!

Too little attic insulation and too much air leakage can waste a great deal of energy, leading to an uncomfortable home and higher energy bills. TruSoft Cellulose insulation reduces heating and cooling bills by as much as 32 percent (based on a study by The Leominster Housing Authority), meets and exceeds fire-resistance testing, and is a “green” product as the material contains 85 percent recycled paper that would otherwise end up in a landfill.

This Wells, ME, homeowner was ready to insulate their attic and save money on their energy bill, so they scheduled a free estimate with Dr. Energy Saver by TC Hafford Basment Systems. System Design Specialist Nima Farshid worked with the homeowner to design an energy-efficient system that would make their home healthier and more comfortable. First, their attic was sealed with ZypFoam where necessary and haft-inch Foamax. After the area was finished being sealed, TruSoft Cellulose insulation was blown into the space to insulate the attic and create a home that would be warmer in the winter and keep the AC in during the hot summer months.

Our Wells, ME homeowner had a damp dirt floor crawlspace that they were tired of dealing with. They contacted TC Hafford Basement Systems for a free estimate to encapsulate the space. System Design Specialist Rick R. met with the homeowner to create a plan that would meet their needs.

To fully encapsulate the crawl space and keep moisture and critters out, CleanSpace with Drainage Matting was installed. Drainage Matting is a durable barrier with dimples to help channel water and elevate the CleanSpace, keeping it clean. CleanSpace is a durable, inorganic vapor barrier that gets attached to the walls and seals up the crawl space, keeping moisture out. A SmartSump was installed to capture water and pump it through the new Exterior Buried Discharge line. The Discharge line takes the water far from the home and with the installation of IceGuard, the entire system is protected against ice buildup in the winter. Not only is the homeowner able to enjoy their home with better air quality and without having to worry about water in their crawl space. Finishing out the full waterproofing system was the installation of a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier.

Homeowners in Ogunquit, ME had failing and crumbling foundation walls made of old field stone. They called TC Hafford Basement Systems for help with their crawl space. We installed StableLock Walls to stop any further shifting from the original walls. StableLock is a poured concrete wall that does not require excavation or lifting of the home, keeping it a cost effective and less intrusive option for homeowners.
