Proudly serving Maine and Eastern New Hampshire including Portland, Bangor, Portsmouth, NH
Homeowners from New Vineyard, ME reached out to TC Hafford Basement Systems for help with their wet basement. The homeowners observed some cracking in the foundation that was allowing water to seep into their space. Our System Design Specialist Adam H. visited their basement for a free estimate on the repairs needed.
The homeowner wanted the basement to be dry all of the time, so they did not want to cut any corners. WaterGuard was installed around the perimeter of the basement to collect and channel water. In high-traffic areas such as entrances TrenchDrain was installed and connected to the WaterGuard. The water has to go somewhere, so the homeowner chose a SuperSump for the job. The SuperSump takes the water and pumps it through an Exterior Buried Discharge line, which gets the water far away from the home. To prevent ice buildup and keep the system running at 100% during the winter months, IceGuard was installed on the Discharge line. CleanSpace Wall System was installed along the walls and attached to the WaterGuard. CleanSpace Wall System acts as a vapor barrier and channels any moisture coming in from the wall to the WaterGuard. Now our homeowners no longer have to fight their wet basement and have confidence they can use the space safely!
