When it Rains a Stream Forms in Their Basement

This Dover, NH, homeowner had an issue: whenever it would rain, a stream would form in their basement that would lead to their old sump pump. Worried about mold and damage, the homeowner booked a free estimate with TC Hafford Basement Systems. System Design Specialist Rick Russell drove out and met with the homeowner to work with them on creating a waterproofing system that would be specific to their home.

 

WaterGuard Perimeter Drain was installed in the necessary areas of the home where water was coming in and was connected to a SuperSump Sump Pump system. WaterGuard is buried under the slab floor and channels water to a sump pump. WaterGuard features ports that allow for easy cleaning and service if necessary. The SuperSump takes the water and pushes it out of the basement through a Buried Discharge Line that gets the water away from the home where it can’t cause anymore issues. New England can get cold during the winter, so IceGuard was installed on the Discharge line to prevent ice buildup, keeping the waterproofing system working all year-round without troubles. Now the homeowner has a dry basement, and they no longer have to worry about mold damaging their basement, and their family and home will be healthier.

Rochester, NH Basement Receives WaterGuard Installation Following Spring Flood

When this homeowners basement flooded during the melting of snow after last winter, they knew they needed something done before this happened again. They called us at TC Hafford Basement Systems, and we set them up with a free estimate before beginning work on solving their moisture problem. To protect this basement from future flooding, a WaterGuard piping system was installed around the perimeter of the floor. These pipes are buried below the surface of the floor where they will absorb any leaking water before it can reach the surface in the future. Next a TripleSafe sump system was installed and connected directly to the WaterGuard to provide a means to remove the captured water. Finally, IceGuard and LawnScape pipe segments were attached to the discharge line to further protect the basement from potential leakage causes.

With their newly waterproofed basement, this homeowner can expect a dry basement year-round from now on. The WaterGuard & TripleSafe installation will keep this basement completely water-free for years to come!

Waterproofing Cement Block Foundation in Rochester, NH

Homeowners in Rochester, NH had cement block foundation walls that were leaking water. We installed CleanSpace Wall System, a vapor barrier that protects the walls from moisture coming in, channeling any water behind the liner directly to the WaterGuard perimeter drainage system. WaterGuard channels the water to the brand new TripleSafe sump pump. The TripleSafe has two Zoeller pumps for protection against pump failure, as well as a battery back up so there are no concerns if the power goes out. The TripleSafe removes water away from the home through an exterior buried discharge line, which is protected by IceGuard to prevent freezing up in the winter.

Installing WaterGuard Drainage System in Rochester, NH

Homeowners in Rochester, NH had cracks in their foundation walls that were letting water in, and they wanted to explore adding a perimeter drainage system. We provided a free estimate and recommended installing WaterGuard perimeter drainage, along with CleanSpace Wall System to protect the seeping walls. CleanSpace Wall System is a vapor barrier that allows water to stay behind the liner and directed to the WaterGuard drainage, while sealing moisture out of the basement space. The CleanSpace also gives a clean and updated appearance to old basement walls. WaterGuard drainage channels incoming water directly to their new TripleSafe sump pump (not pictured here). The TripleSafe then pumps water away from the home through an exterior buried discharge line.

WaterGuard Installation Keeps Kittery, ME Basement Water-Free

Having experienced recent flooding in their basement, this homeowner in Kittery, ME was looking for a solution to their problem and they hired us at TC Hafford Basement Systems to solve this problem. After they received their free estimate and gave us the go-ahead, our crew began the installation of a WaterGuard piping system. These pipes are buried below the perimeter of the basement where they will absorb any future leaks before the water can reach the surface of the floor. A TripleSafe pump was also installed in the floor and connected to the WaterGuard system. Now during rainfall, any leaking moisture will be collected by the WaterGuard and removed from the home through the TripleSafe.

This homeowner no longer needs to worry about their basement taking on standing water after any rainfall or melting snow. Their new basement waterproofing will keep this home dry for years to come!
