Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

Parents wanted to help their daughter who owned a home in Saco, Maine address the issues in her crawl space. The crawl space was very damp with dirt floors, poor insulation, and they had mice coming in. We first removed the old, failing fiberglass insulation and regraded the floor. We installed our two-step encapsulation system of drainage matting and CleanSpace vapor barrier liner. We also installed a SmartSump with UltraSump battery backup system to ensure water was being removed away from the home. Spray Foam insulation was installed on the rim joists to create an air tight seal, keep critters out, and immediately improve the energy efficiency of the home.

We recently helped keep the Poland Spring Preservation Society, well...preserved!! They were experiencing water intrusion in the crawl space of one of their buildings, and were concerned it could lead to mold problems. We encapsulated the crawl space with our CleanSpace vapor barrier and drainage matting. CleanSpace seals out moisture, allowing groundwater to flow under the liner, keeping the inside of the crawl space dry. CleanSpace is an inorganic material and is treated so that it prevents mold growth. 

Old Orchard Beach, Maine homeowners wanted to improve their crawl space so they reached out to TC Hafford Basement Systems for help. The crawl space already had an old plastic liner the owners were unhappy with, so they wanted to upgrade to a proper vapor barrier, as well as add a sump pump. We installed our two-step encapsulation system including drainage matting and CleanSpace vapor barrier. Drainage matting controls the groundwater and channels it to their new SmartSump pump to be removed away from the home. CleanSpace seals out moisture and also prevents mold growth to keep the crawl space structure and air healthy. 

A homeowner from Carrabassett Valley, ME recently purchased their house and reached out to TC Hafford Basement Systems for a free estimate to waterproof their crawlspace and install a sump pump. Our System Design Specialist Nick C. met with the homeowner and created a plan to fully protect their crawlspace. 

CleanSpace with Drainage Matting was installed. Drainage Matting is a durable barrier with dimples to help channel water and elevate the CleanSpace, keeping it clean. CleanSpace is a durable, inorganic vapor barrier that gets attached to the walls and seals up the crawl space, keeping moisture out. A SmartSump was installed to capture water and pump it through the new Exterior Buried Discharge line. The Discharge line takes the water far from the home and with the installation of IceGuard, the entire system is protected against ice buildup in the winter. SprayFoam was installed on the rim joists and walls to insulate the area, keeping cold air out during the winter, making the space more comfortable, and saving the homeowner money on their energy bill. Finishing out the full waterproofing system was the installation of a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier. The waterproofing was completed by foreman Greg D., Spray Foam Specialist Travis L., and installers Jason L. and Josh S.
