TC Hafford Basement Systems Before & After Photos

We encapsulated this South Portland, Maine crawl space to help address the humidity and musty smells the owners were experiencing. Crawl spaces with dirt floors are prone to moisture issues, which can cause damage, wood rot, and mold growth. Encapsulating the space seals out the water, keeping the crawl space dry and protected. We install drainage matting on the ground to control the groundwater, with our CleanSpace vapor barrier liner on top. CleanSpace is made of an inorganic material which also prevents mold growth. A SmartSump pump was installed to help pump groundwater away from the home through an exterior buried discharge line. Lastly, a SaniDry Sedona high efficiency air system controls the humidity in the crawl space, while also filtering allergens like mold spores. The SaniDry Sedona helps mitigate musty smells, improving the indoor air quality of the home.

During heavy rainfall, this homeowner always found their basement would take on water through the concrete foundation. To put an end to this, they called us at TC Hafford Basement Systems and after we gave them a free estimate, they hired us to get the job done. Upon arriving at the home, our crew got started on installing WaterGuard piping around the perimeter of the floor, buried just below the surface. The WaterGuard will capture any moisture leaking through the floor in the future and guide the captured water to the TripleSafe sump system installed in the floor. Lastly, a CleanSpace Wall System was put in place around the entire basement. This barrier will collect any water leaking through the walls and feed it directly into the WaterGuard below.

With a properly waterproofed basement, this homeowner will never again find their basement full of water after a heavy rain!

Falmouth, ME homeowners wanted help from TC Hafford Basement Systems updating their attic insulation. System Design Specialist Josh H. met with the owners to assess their attic space and give a free estimate. We removed the old fiberglass insulation which was damp and failing. We installed TruSoft cellulose insulation. TruSoft is made out of recycled materials, and offers fire, mold, and pest resistance. 

We recently helped homeowners in Falmouth, ME with their wet basement. They already had a sump pump from another company, but the water in the basement was not making it to that sump pump to be able to be properly removed from the home. We added a TripleSafe sump pump system, featuring two Zoeller pumps and a battery back up. The homeowners are now protected, even if a pump fails or they lose power, the TripleSafe will keep running to keep their basement dry!

When a customer in Falmouth, Maine, noticed water seeping into their crawl space, they called TC Hafford for an expert assessment. Our thorough inspection revealed moisture buildup that could lead to long-term damage. We quickly addressed the problem by installing a CleanSpace liner, which prevents water vapor from entering the space, and drainage matting to manage water flow beneath the liner. Dr. Energy Saver spray foam was applied to further insulate and seal the area, while IceGuard provided protection against potential freeze-related damage. The homeowner was relieved by the comprehensive solution and was very satisfied with the transformed crawl space, confident that their home was now safeguarded against future moisture problems.
