TC Hafford Basement Systems Before & After Photos

Homeowners in Boothbay, Maine recently reached out for help with repairing their wet crawl space. We installed our CleanSpace vapor barrier with drainage matting, which work together to control groundwater and seal moisture out of the crawl space. CleanSpace is an inorganic material, so the vapor barrier liner also prevents mold growth, keeping the crawl space protected and healthy. Spray Foam insulation was installed along the top of the crawl space walls and rim joists, providing immediate energy efficiency improvements for the home. The crawl space is now dry, healthy, and the owners can safely utilize the space without worry of water and mold damage.

Referred to as the “Ledge Room” by the homeowner, this BoothBay Harbor, ME, basement was dealing with water leaking in when it rains and grew concerned about mold and damage to their finished walls. The ledge in the basement was the main root of the issue, and with the homeowner wanting to retire into the home, they didn’t want to waste any time solving the problem. The homeowner booked a free estimate with TC Hafford Basement Systems and worked with System Design Specialist Michael Madore to design a system that would waterproof their basement and protect the home from costly repairs.

Water needs to go somewhere that can take it out of the basement, so a SuperSump was installed that uses a Zoeller sump to collect water and push it away from the home through an Exterior Buried Discharge line. CleanSpace Wall System was installed on the ledge and walls to act as a vapor barrier and channel water to the new WaterGuard system that was installed. WaterGuard collects water and channels it to the SuperSump, keeping water off the basement floor. SprayFoam was installed to insulate the basement and seal the CleanSpace to the wall. A SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier was installed in the basement to keep humidity at a safe level, preventing musty odors and mold growth. Now the homeowner is happy knowing their basement is dry, more energy efficient, and healthier. They can use their basement as they please without the risk of their belongings being damaged or ruined by mold.

Boothbay Harbor, ME homeowners had previously had work done by TC Hafford Basement Systems to install our Gutter Shutter seamless gutters. When they realized they had basement water intrusion issues, they called us back to give a free estimate. We prepped the floor with drainage matting and WaterGuard perimeter drainage system before pouring a new slab floor. CleanSpace Wall system was installed on the walls to act as a vapor barrier, sealing moisture out and giving a fresh clean look to the space. The WaterGuard channels water to their new TripleSafe sump pump system, which pumps water away from the home through an exterior buried discharge line. The TripleSafe has two Zoeller pumps, as well as a battery back up pump in the event of power loss. The homeowners can now enjoy their dry and usable basement!

Having to contend with moisture accumulating in their basement using nothing but fans, this homeowner living in Windsor, ME needed a better way to keep the water at bay. After talking with our staff at TC Hafford Basement Systems and receiving their free estimate, this homeowner was ready to have us solve their wet basement problem with a new sump. Shortly after clearing a space and excavating a fresh sump, a SuperSump pump was installed in the floor of the basement. The SuperSump device is capable of removing water from the home at a rate of over 2,600 gallons of water per hour. This water flows out of the home through a PVC discharge line. On the exterior of the home, an IceGuard pipe segment as well as a LawnScape discharge port were attached to the discharge line. The IceGuard will protect against ice forming in the line while the LawnScape port provides a grate over the end of the line to keep debris from entering and causing blockages.

With a proper sump pump now installed in their basement floor, this homeowner can spend less time trying to keep their floor dry and more time relaxing. The SuperSump pump will keep this basement water-free for years to come!

After living with a damp basement for years, this homeowner thought it was time they had something done about it. They had us at TC Hafford Basement Systems take a look and we got to work waterproofing the space right away! We began by burying a WaterGuard piping system below the floor to absorb and guide incoming water to the sump. A SuperSump pump then takes the water and forces it out of the home through the discharge line. Finally, a CleanSpace Wall Liner was used to cover the walls of the basement, brightening up the space and proving an extra layer against moisture build up on the walls.
