TC Hafford Basement Systems Before & After Photos

With a relatively old sump pump in their basement, this Old Town, ME homeowner had begun to notice their basement would retain some water after rainfall. Looking to remedy this problem, the homeowner hired us at TC Hafford Basement Systems. As soon as our crew was able to get out to the home, they began work on the basement foundation by installing a WaterGuard piping system around the majority of the perimeter of the space. These pipes lay beneath the surface of the floor where they trap incoming water and guide it to the TripleSafe pump installed in the existing sump. The TripleSafe will force any collected water out of the home through a PVC discharge line protected by both an IceGuard and LawnScape segments. With both the WaterGuard system as well as a TripleSafe pump, this basement will now be protected against moisture build up without the water ever reaching the surface of the floor and remain protected even during power outages.

Now that their basement is properly waterproofed, this homeowner can utilize the space without fearing water damaging their property. The WaterGuard piping will keep this basement floor dry for years into the future.

A homeowner in Old Town, ME, reached out to TC Hafford Basement Systems to address cold drafts coming through the floor of their indoor porch. They wanted a solution that would improve comfort without disrupting the appearance of the space. Our team conducted a thorough assessment and determined that Dr. Energy Saver spray foam insulation would be the perfect fit for the job. We applied the spray foam to the underside of the porch flooring, creating a solid barrier to keep the cold out. After the installation, the homeowner noticed an immediate difference in temperature and was extremely pleased with how much warmer the space had become.

System Design Specialist Mark S. met with homeowners in Argyle Township, ME to offer a free estimate to address their basement issues. The homeowners had an unfinished basement with water coming up through the floor where the floor meets the wall. They already had a sump pump, but it was old and failing. 

We poured a new slab floor, along with WaterGuard around the perimeter of the basement.  WaterGuard captures and channels water to the brand new TripleSafe sump pump, which features two Zoeller sumps and a battery-powered backup. The TripleSafe drains water out of the basement and through an Exterior Buried Discharge line that is protected against ice buildup in the winter with IceGuard. CleanSpace Wall System was installed to act as a vapor barrier where needed and channel any additional moisture from the walls to the WaterGuard.

This Brewer, ME homeowner never liked to make use of their basement due to the constant damp conditions. They would soon change their mind once they had us over at TC Hafford Basement Systems take a look. Our crew got to work waterproofing this space by surrounding the perimeter of the basement with a WaterGuard piping system buried beneath the floor. These pipes will guide any trapped water to a new TripleSafe sump pump installed in the floor nearby. The TripleSafe will then remove the water from the basement through a discharge line. Lastly, to brighten up the space and keep any moisture on the walls under control, a CleanSpace Wall System was put in place. Now this homeowner can enjoy the utility of a dry basement for the rest of their time spent in this home!

Living in Brewer, ME, this homeowner was having trouble keeping their basement dry with a crack in the wall leaking during any rainfall. Looking to quickly remedy this problem, the homeowner contacted our office staff at TC Hafford Basement Systems, and we were able to set them up with a free estimate. Following their estimate, they gave us the green light and our installation crew was soon dispatched to the home to begin work. To keep water from entering the problem crack in the future, a FlexiSpan seal was applied over the top of the crack. This seal is built with a foam core to allow structure to bend slightly and remain adhered to any slight changes in the shape of the crack. Once the FlexiSpan seal was complete, a SuperSump pump was installed in the floor of the basement. This device will take in any water that otherwise would have gathered on the floors surface in a pool and force it from the home through a PVC discharge system.

Removing water at a rate over 2,600 gallons per hour, the SuperSump will maintain a dry basement floor for this homeowner for years to come! These waterproofing installations will enable this homeowner to make use of their basement without the need to worry about water damage anymore.
