TC Hafford Basement Systems Before & After Photos

TC Hafford Basement Systems recently helped Bremen, ME homeowners with encapsulating their crawl space. Their old crawl space had dirt floors and moisture issues, causing problems with their old fiberglass insulation. We installed our two-step encapsulation system, drainage matting with a CleanSpace liner. CleanSpce is a vapor barrier that seals out moisture, and prevents mold growth. SprayFoam insulation was added on the walls and rim joists to keep an air tight seal and provide energy savings for the homeowners. Lastly, we installed a SaniDry Sedona high efficiency air system to filter the air as well as control the humidity in the crawl space.

Homeowners in Guilford, Maine were tired of dealing with a leaky, wet basement. We installed our basement waterproofing solutions to keep their space dry and usable. First step was to pour a new slab floor with WaterGuard perimeter drainage system. CleanSpace Wall System was added on the walls to seal out moisture and give a fresh, clean appearance. WaterGuard connects to their new TripleSafe sump pump (not pictured) to pump water away from the home. These products work seamlessly together to waterproof the basement for good.

Guilford homeowner was experiencing a wet basement with water coming in down the walls. They reached out to TC Hafford Basement Systems and our System Design Specialist Alan Noyes evaluated their needs. We installed the CleanSpace wall system with WaterGuard, as well as a TripleSafe Sump Pump and SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier.

WaterGuard is installed around the perimeter of the basement to channel any water to a TripleSafe Sump Pump that will take water out of the basement and push it through an exterior Buried Discharge Line. CleanSpace Wall System is installed and connected to the WaterGuard, ensuring no water can seep through any cracks and end up on the new slab. To prevent humidity from being an issue, a SaniDry Sedona is installed in the basement to keep humidity at a safe level. The SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier is set up with an additional line attached to the TripleSafe Sump Pump so the homeowner no longer has to go into the basement to empty their old dehumidifier. 

Owning a basement without much for waterproofing, this Saint Albans, ME homeowner was tired of finding inches of standing water in their basement. After a quick Google search and a phone call to our office at TC Hafford Basement Systems, this homeowner was set up with a free estimate where they were given details about their options. Once we got the green light to begin work from the homeowner, our crew began by excavating the perimeter of the basement floor. This enabled the installation of WaterGuard piping buried just below the surface of the floor. Next, a SuperSump pump was installed as well as a PVC discharge line with built-in protections on the exterior of the home in the form of an IceGuard pipe segment. Now during heavy rainfall, the WaterGuard piping will capture any leaking moisture and guide it to the sump before it has a chance to gather on the floors surface. The SuperSump will then remove the collected water from the home at a rate over 2,600 gallons per hour. The IceGuard will prevent any blockages in the line from causing a backup in the line by releasing any blocked water through the sides of the pipe.

With these waterproofing solutions in place below their home, this homeowner can now expect a dry basement floor during any rainfall that would have otherwise flooded the space.

Homeowners in Saint Albans, Maine had a cracked wall that was beginning to buckle. Concerned, they reached out to TC Hafford Basement Systems for expert help. We installed PowerBraces, which are steel beams that are custom fit to stop any further shifting of the wall. PowerBraces can actually help straighten the wall over time. They can be installed quickly compared to other foundation repair options, and are able to be adjusted over time as needed.
