TC Hafford Basement Systems Before & After Photos

With a massive hole in their foundation, this Berwick, ME, homeowner was worried about their foundation collapsing. Not willing to risk this happening, the homeowner scheduled a free estimate with TC Hafford Basement Systems after finding us online. System Design Specialist Rick Russell met with the homeowner and worked with them to design a system that would solve their foundation troubles.

In situations where the foundation is failing like this, the home would typically need to be lifted and a new foundation would be poured, but not with StableLock Wall System. StableLock was created to be a permanent fix for failing foundations, and the homeowner never has to leave the house. StableLock was created to meet the demand of failing rock foundations in Maine. StableLock uses modern shoring methods to fill the voids in the existing wall and stabilize it. The homeowner is no longer worried about their foundation failing, and they saved money all while protecting their home from any future damage that comes along with a bad foundation.

This Hampton, NH home was purchased two years ago by the current homeowner and they had a few issues that needed to be addressed in the crawlspace so TC Hafford Basement Systems got the call. System Design Specialist Peter Folsom met with the homeowner and put together a plan on how to lift the sagging floor and protect the crawlspace from moisture. 

The CleanSpace system aims to transform a damp and musty crawl space into a clean, dry, and healthier environment by effectively managing moisture and preventing water-related issues. It can help improve indoor air quality, protect structural integrity, and create a more comfortable living space above the crawl space.

Benefits of using SmartJacks include increased structural stability, improved floor leveling, prevention of further damage, and the potential to regain the original height and integrity of the floors. Additionally, SmartJacks come with a warranty, providing peace of mind for property owners.

Springvale, ME homeowners had contacted TC Hafford Basement Systems a few years prior, but held off on completing the work. After more years of water frustrations they called again ready to move forward with repairs. System Design Specialist Peter F. helped create a plan to address the water issues so their basement would remain dry moving forward.

CleanSpace Wall System was installed to act as a vapor barrier where needed and channel any moisture from the walls to the WaterGuard. WaterGuard is a perimeter system that funnels water to the brand new TripleSafe Sump Pump. The TripleSafe has 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.

A North Hampton, NH homeowner met with TC Hafford Basement Systems for a free estimate on waterproofing their crumbling basement wall. We installed CleanSpace Wall System with WaterGuard, as well as a SuperSump Plus system. 

CleanSpace Wall System acts as a vapor barrier where needed to channel any additional moisture from the walls to the WaterGuard. WaterGuard captures and channels water to the SuperSump Plus, which pumps the water through an Exterior Buried Discharge line that takes it far from the home. Now their space will stay dry and protected from water damage!

When the 55-year-old drain in their basement clogged up and would not function anymore, this Bridgton, ME homeowner called us at TC Hafford Basement Systems. After speaking with our sales representative and reviewing their options during a free estimate, they gave us the green light to begin work on resolving their sump problem. When our installation crew arrived at the home, they began work on the basement by excavating a shallow trench into the perimeter of the basement floor. This allowed enough room for WaterGuard piping to be laid surrounding the basement. Buried beneath a fresh layer of concrete, the WaterGuard pipes within the floor will capture any moisture leaking into the basement through the pores in the concrete in the future. The water is then guided through the piping to the sump where we installed a SuperSump pump. This new pump is capable of removing over 2,600 gallons of water from the home every hour. The water is pumped outside the home through a PVC discharge line where it passes through IceGuard & LawnScape sections before being released onto the lawn. These two additional pipe sections provide protection against blockages in the line and debris that might cause future clogs.

With a revamped waterproofing system in place, this homeowner’s wet basement problem is now a thing of the past. The WaterGuard & SuperSump combination will ensure this basement remains dry for years to come!
