TC Hafford Basement Systems Before & After Photos

An Auburn, ME home was under contract to be purchased by new buyers when a home inspection report found cracking and failure in one of the support beams for the home. The buyers contacted TC Hafford Basement Systems for help saving their home purchase. We installed SmartJacks, a post system that immediately lifts any sagging floors, and provides more than enough support for the beam to safely keep the home secure. The new owners can relax knowing the integrity of their home is intact!

New homeowners in Auburn, ME quickly discovered their basement leaked with every rain. They were planning to use the home as a rental property, but first had to address the intrusion issue that left them with 6" of water at times. To address their water issues, we first poured a new slab floor with drainage matting and WaterGuard perimeter drainage system. A TripleSafe sump pump was installed for the WaterGuard to tie into so water would get captured and pumped away from the home. CleanSpace Wall System was added around the basement walls as a vapor barrier to seal moisture out and give the basement a fresh, clean look. Their basement will now stay dry and offer usable storage space to any future renters, adding value to the home!

Auburn, Maine homeowners reached out to TC Hafford Basement Systems for help with their dirt floor basement. The homeowners wanted to add a concrete floor, as well as address the water coming into the basement. We poured a new slab floor, immediately improving the basement. WaterGuard drainage system was installed around the perimeter of the basement, which channels water directly to their new TripleSafe sump pump. The TripleSafe pumps water away from the home through an exterior buried discharge line. CleanSpace Wall system was installed on the walls to give a fresh new look to the basement, while also sealing out moisture. Lastly, we installed a SaniDry Sedona high efficiency air system. The SaniDry Sedona has a MERV8 filter to remove dust and mold spores, and also controls humidity in the basement to keep it at a healthy level.

Homeowners in Auburn, Maine were having water issues in their basement, in spite of installing a sump pump. The basement is finished and water had caused damage, prompting them to reach out for help waterproofing the area before re-finishing the basement. We installed a TripleSafe sump pump and a SmartSump liner. The TripleSafe has two Zoeller pumps, and a third battery backup pump to protect against power loss. The SmartSump liner allows the system to handle a higher water capacity without causing the sump pump to run all the time. We also installed WaterGuard, which is a perimeter drainage system that collects water and directs it to the TripleSafe to be pumped away from the home. Lastly, a SaniDry XP high efficiency air system was added to control the humidity in the space to prevent moisture, and also filter allergens from the air to keep the indoor air quality healthy. 

The CleanSpace Wall System was installed on the customer's basement walls to prevent moisture from entering the basement. This system is designed to create a barrier that blocks water vapor and helps to keep the basement dry and free from mold and mildew. It also helps to improve the overall air quality in the basement by reducing the amount of moisture in the air.
