TC Hafford Basement Systems Before & After Photos

Portland, ME homeowners contacted TC Hafford Basement Systems for a free estimate to waterproof their basement. They were dealing with continual flooding issues and were tired of having to clean up a wet mess. System Design Specialist Stephen C. helped them come up with the best plan to address their water woes.

We installed CleanSpace Wall System which acts as a vapor barrier to keep moisture out. The CleanSpace connects to WaterGuard to help channel any water to the SuperSump Plus system. The SuperSump removes water from the basement through an exterior buried discharge line away from the home. 

Portland, ME homeowners met with System Design Specialist Louis D. from TC Hafford Basement Systems for help with their crawlspace. They wanted to install a vapor barrier to address their moisture issues. Our team removed all of the old plastic and debris from the crawlspace, as well as the old, damp fiberglass insulation. We installed CleanSpace with drainage matting, an inorganic vapor barrier that attaches to the walls to seal the crawlspace. Our SprayFoam Specialist Travis L. also installed SprayFoam along the rim joists and top of the walls, providing an added air and moisture seal.

Portland, Maine homeowners contacted us for help replacing their old, failed sump pump system. We first installed WaterGuard perimeter drainage, as well as a TripleSafe sump pump. WaterGuard collects water that seeps in from the walls or floors and brings it to the TripleSafe sump pump. The TripleSafe system features two Zoeller pumps that can handle a combined capacity of 6,000 gallons of water per hour, pumping water away from the home through an exterior buried discharge line. The homeowners were also interested in options for dehumidification since the basement was often damp and musty. We installed a SaniDry Sedona, the world's most efficient dehumidifier. The SaniDry Sedona can remove over 100 pints of water from the air per day, and its MERV 8 filter removes allergens and odors. 

After living in their Portland, ME home for three years, this homeowner decided it was time they upgraded from the small sump they got from a hardware store when they moved in. Our crew got to work on their basement by rounding out the existing sump hole and installing a SuperSump system in the floor. This new pump will output at a rate of over 2,600 gallons of water per hour. This water exits the basement through a PVC discharge line where it passes through an IceGuard pipe segment on the exterior of the home. Now the homeowner can be sure their sump will keep their basement floor dry during exceptionally heavy rainfall.

Andrew and his crew did a great job encapsulating this Crawl Space in Portland, ME. Now the homeowner has plenty of storage area that will be protected against  outside elements.
