TC Hafford Basement Systems Before & After Photos

Augusta, ME homeowner contacted TC Hafford Basement Systems to help address their basement water issues. Water was seeping in where the walls meet the floor, causing frustration for the homeowner. System Design Specialist Jordan T. met with the owner to evaluate the basement's needs.

A SuperSump Plus system was installed to remove any water from the basement through a buried exterior discharge line. WaterGuard and TrenchDrain were installed along the perimeter of the basement to catch the water coming in at the base of the walls and channel it to the SuperSump Plus. BrightWall panels were installed on every wall to cover the cold concrete walls and add a layer of moisture protection. BrightWall freshens up the space, is durable, easy to clean, and never discolors.

An Augusta, Maine crawl space was experiencing moisture problems, which made the homeowners worry about the integrity of the supports for their home, as well as their air quality. We removed the old fiberglass insulation and other debris, and regraded the area. Then we installed our two-step encapsulation process, including drainage matting and CleanSpace vapor barrier liner. Drainage matting channels the groundwater, and the CleanSpace liner is installed on top of the drainage matting and on all of the walls to create a sealed up space. CleanSpace prevents mold growth in addition to keeping water out. Spray Foam insulation was installed on the walls and rim joists to provide energy efficiency improvements, as well as an added moisture seal.

We provided a free estimate to homeowners in Augusta, Maine that lived in a house built in the 1850's and had noticed shifting foundation walls. The owners were very concerned about the walls potentially collapsing and wanted to get it repaired ASAP. We installed StableLock Walls in two places where they had failing walls. StableLock Wall is a new concrete wall with patented bracing that keeps the home stable. We install the new StableLock Wall directly next to the failing wall, preventing further shifting or collapse. We can install StableLock without any major excavation or needing to lift the home, so it is a less costly option than traditional methods.

A Woolwich, ME homeowner contacted TC Hafford Basement Systems for a free estimate on insulating their crawlspace to protect it from mice that were taking over, as well as insulate it. System Design Specialist Mike M. met with the owner to discuss a plan for how we could solve their problem. 

Spray Foam Specialist Travis L. worked with installer Domanic L. to protect the crawlspace. SprayFoam is part of our Dr. Energy Saver department, and was installed on the rim joists and walls to insulate the area, keeping cold air out during the winter, making the space more comfortable, and saving the homeowner money on their energy bill. We also installed CleanSpace with Drainage Matting. Drainage Matting is a durable barrier with dimples to help channel water and elevate the CleanSpace, keeping it clean. CleanSpace is a durable, inorganic vapor barrier that gets attached to the walls and seals up the crawl space, keeping moisture out. The crawlspace will now stay dry and critter free!

A homeowner from South Gardiner, ME contacted TC Hafford Basement Systems for a free estimate on installing a sump pump to help with their wet basement issue. System Design Specialist Thomas R. met with the owner and made a plan to install a TripleSafe sump pump system. the TripleSafe sump pump, which features two Zoeller sumps and a battery-powered backup, drains water out of the basement and through an Exterior Buried Discharge line that is protected against ice buildup with IceGuard. The homeowner can relax knowing their basement will stay dry from now on!
