Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

Beals, ME homeowners contacted TC Hafford Basement Systems for help with their wet and leaking basement. We poured a new slab along with slab WaterGuard around the perimeter of the basement. WaterGuard helps channel any water to the brand new TripleSafe Sump Pump. The TripleSafe features two Zoeller sumps and a battery-powered backup for protection if they lose power. The TripleSafe drains water out of the basement and through an Exterior Buried Discharge line that is protected against ice buildup with IceGuard. CleanSpace Wall System was installed to act as a vapor barrier where needed and channel any additional moisture from the walls to the WaterGuard. SprayFoam insulation was installed on the rim joists keeping cold air out during the winter, making the space more comfortable, and saving the homeowner money on their energy bill.

A Vanceboro, ME homeowner contacted TC Hafford Basement Systems because they had water seeping into their basement. Our System Design Specialist Craig Z. met with the owner to give them a free estimate on repairs.

Around the perimeter walls of the basement, WaterGuard was installed to channel the water to a TripleSafe Sump Pump with an UltraSump Battery Back-Up. The inclusion of the UltraSump Battery Back-Up is important to keep water out of the basement even during power outages, which tend to be very common in Maine during storms. Once the water gets to the TripleSafe Sump Pump, it has to go somewhere. A discharge line is connected and fitted with IceGuards to prevent freezing and then the line is buried. Water is taken away from the home where it is no longer a problem. To keep the discharge line from being clogged, a LawnScape Outlet is fitted to the end of the pipe to prevent anything from entering the discharge line. To take care of any humidity in the basement, a Sanidry Sedona dehumidifier is set up with an additional line attached to the TripleSafe Sump Pump so the homeowner doesn't have to go into the basement to empty buckets of water. 

System Design Specialist Craig Z. met with a Vanceboro, ME homeowner to give a free estimate on repairing their leaky basement issues. We installed the BrightWall system which acts as a moisture and vapor barrier, and is easy to clean and never discolors. The BrightWall channels any moisture to WaterGuard which is installed around the perimeter of the basement, funneling water to a new TripleSafe sump pump. The TripleSafe features two Zoeller sumps and a battery-powered backup. It drains water out of the basement and through an Exterior Buried Discharge line. Lastly we added a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier which drains into the TripleSafe for easy water removal. Our homeowner has a new bright and dry basement!

A Pembroke, ME homeowner contacted us for help with the stacked stone basement in their older home. The walls and floor had damage from cracking and crumbling, and water was coming into the basement. We poured a brand new slab floor, along with WaterGuard to channel moisture to the brand new TripleSafe sump pump system. CleanSpace Walls were installed around the basement as a vapor barrier sealing out moisture and preventing mold growth. The homeowner can use their basement safely now that it is dry and protected!

Living in Pembroke, ME, this homeowner had a developing moisture problem in their basement. Looking for ways to remedy this problem, they called us at TC Hafford Basement Systems, and we were able to set them up with a free estimate. After hearing their options, they hired us right away to get started on a permanent solution to the moisture problem. This began with a WaterGuard piping system being buried beneath the surface of the concrete floor, around the perimeter of the basement. This will form a barrier to capture moisture leaking in through the foundation. Next, a TripleSafe sump system was installed in the basement floor with the WaterGuard feeding directly into it. Now any water captured by the barrier of piping will be guided straight to the TripleSafe for removal from the basement without any moisture gathering on the floors surface. Finally, a CleanSpace wall system was put in place, lining the walls with a waterproof seal to intercept any wall leakage and guide it down into the WaterGuard.

These waterproofing installations will ensure this basement remains water-free for years to come! The WaterGuard & TripleSafe systems working together will be more than enough to keep this basement dry and usable for the homeowner.
