We helped Harpswell, Maine homeowners encapsulate their damp, musty crawl space. We encapsulated the area with drainage matting and CleanSpace vapor barrier. CleanSpace is an inorganic material that prevents mold growth, while also sealing out any moisture. The homeowners were also interested in spray foam, so we installed Spray Foam insulation on the walls and rim joists. Spray Foam can easily get into the nooks and crannies, so it creates an air tight seal, and provides immediate energy efficiency improvements.
Wanting to take care of the moisture issue in their Harpswell, ME, crawl space, this homeowner reached out to TC Hafford Basement Systems for help. System Design Specialist Todd Bernard met with the homeowner to discuss their goals and put together a system that would give them peace of mind.
Encapsulating the hardly-used crawl space would protect the area and home from outside elements and help keep moisture out of the crawl space, preventing mold and small critters from making it their home. CleanSpace with Drainage Matting was installed with Spray Foam, ensuring the best seal. Finally, a Sump Liner was installed so that, if water ever becomes a problem, a sump pump can be quickly and easily installed without disrupting the CleanSpace.
The homeowner can rest easy knowing their home’s health is protected and their crawl space won’t be a home to any critters that aren’t paying bills.
We helped Harpswell, Maine homeowners upgrade their crawl space from a dingy dirt floor area, to a fresh, clean encapsulated crawl space. Our drainage matting and TripleCrawl sump pump system were installed to manage the groundwater. Our SaniDry Sedona high efficiency air system now controls the humidity, as well as filters the air for allergens to keep the air in the home healthy. The CleanSpace vapor barrier seals out moisture and prevents mold growth. We also installed spray foam insulation on the walls to improve the energy efficiency of the home.
This Harpswell, ME, homeowner recently purchased a new home and immediately had issues with water coming into their basement and crawl space area. Uncertain of how it comes in but appearing often, the homeowner wants to address the issue before it becomes a bigger problem or affects the health of their home. Looking for help, the homeowner reached out to TC Hafford Basement Systems to schedule a free estimate. System Design Specialist Michael Madore met with the homeowner and worked with them to design a waterproofing system specific to their unique situation.
To address the crawl space portion of the area, CleanSpace with Drainage Matting was laid down to create an inorganic barrier between the crawl space and the outside elements. CleanSpace not only brightens the area but also aids in keeping critters and moisture out. Drainage Matting creates a barrier gap and allows water to be channeled to the new SuperSump Sump Pump. The SuperSump will push all water out of the area, and because of the CleanSpace and Drainage Matting’s tough design, the crawl space is the perfect storage area for the homeowner.
The basement portion of the space needed to be addressed, and so WaterGuard Perimeter Drain was installed where needed and connected to another SuperSump Sump Pump. The WaterGuard captures and channels water to the SuperSump, which takes the water and pumps it out of the space through a Buried Discharge Line. The Discharge Line takes the water away from the home. The homeowner can now live in their home knowing that their basement and crawl space will no longer be an area of trouble.
A Harpswell, ME homeowner contacted TC Hafford Basement Systems for a free estimate to repair their wet basement. The homeowner was getting ready to list the home for sale and wanted to be sure to address the basement issues. System Design Specialist Ken C. created a plan to waterproof the area.
We installed WaterGuard around the perimeter of the basement, which captures and channels water to the new SuperSump Plus system. The SuperSump Plus pumps the water through an Exterior Buried Discharge line that takes it far from the home. The Discharge line is protected against ice buildup during the winter months with the installation of IceGuard. Now that the basement will remain water free, the homeowner has added value to help get top dollar on the sale of their house!
