Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

We recently helped homeowners in Falmouth, ME with their wet basement. They already had a sump pump from another company, but the water in the basement was not making it to that sump pump to be able to be properly removed from the home. We added a TripleSafe sump pump system, featuring two Zoeller pumps and a battery back up. The homeowners are now protected, even if a pump fails or they lose power, the TripleSafe will keep running to keep their basement dry!

During heavy rainfall, this homeowner always found their basement would take on water through the concrete foundation. To put an end to this, they called us at TC Hafford Basement Systems and after we gave them a free estimate, they hired us to get the job done. Upon arriving at the home, our crew got started on installing WaterGuard piping around the perimeter of the floor, buried just below the surface. The WaterGuard will capture any moisture leaking through the floor in the future and guide the captured water to the TripleSafe sump system installed in the floor. Lastly, a CleanSpace Wall System was put in place around the entire basement. This barrier will collect any water leaking through the walls and feed it directly into the WaterGuard below.

With a properly waterproofed basement, this homeowner will never again find their basement full of water after a heavy rain!

We recently helped homeowners in Cumberland Center, Maine to address their leaking basement walls. Water had been coming into the space, damaging the finished walls. We used CleanSpace Wall system to protect the walls. CleanSpace Wall is a vapor barrier that is installed to seal moisture out of the basement, directing it behind the liner to the new WaterGuard perimeter drainage system. WaterGuard captures any incoming moisture and funnels it to the TripleSafe sump pump (not pictured here). The TripleSafe is the top of the line sump system, featuring a battery backup pump and two Zoeller pumps. All of these products work together to keep the basement dry all the time.

When this Cumberland, ME homeowner began to have moisture problems in their garage, they called us at TC Hafford Basement Systems to see if we could help. A door connected to their garage had been allowing rainwater to leak in and gather in the entryway. After they met with our representative, our installation crew was able to get started jackhammering out the old concrete floor of the entry space. Once clear, a fresh slab was poured within the space and WaterGuard piping was installed within the perimeter of the new floor. Running below the doorway, a TrenchDrain was used to capture any water leaking directly under the door in the future. The grate on the top of the TrenchDrain rests level with the floor, allowing any water to spill right in. Finally, a SuperSump system was installed to receive any captured water and remove it from the home through a discharge line.

This homeowner can now be sure any water that would have previously entered this space will be removed from the home without pooling up on their floor. The WaterGuard piping & SuperSump pump will keep this entryway water-free for the foreseeable future!

With the intention of finishing their basement, this Portland, ME, homeowner wanted to address the puddles that form when it rains. They reached out to TC Hafford Basement Systems and met with System Design Specialist Jordan Tarbox to discuss waterproofing solutions for their basement. WaterGuard was installed around the perimeter, with the CleanSpace Wall System attached. Water is directed to a TripleSafe Sump Pump, which pushes it out through an exterior discharge line that’s buried underground, keeping it out of sight and directing it to a location where it will no longer be an issue. The homeowner is now able to finish their basement without the risk of water damage, saving money and protecting the health of their home.
