Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

When the homeowner in Appleton, Maine, first contacted TC Hafford Basement Systems, their crawl space was a major concern. They had noticed uneven floors and signs of moisture buildup, which could lead to long-term damage if not addressed. The crawl space had no moisture barrier in place, and the support beams were beginning to weaken under the strain. Without proper protection, the space was prone to mold growth and structural instability, making the home’s foundation vulnerable.

Following our comprehensive evaluation, we installed a SmartJack system, providing the essential support to stabilize the floor above and correct the unevenness that had been a source of worry. Next, we fitted the CleanSpace liner system, which sealed off the crawl space from outside moisture, ensuring a dry and healthy environment. Finally, the installation of the SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier guaranteed that humidity levels would stay low, keeping the crawl space mold-free and well-protected.

The transformation was remarkable. What was once an unstable and damp space became a solid, dry, and secure foundation for the home. The homeowner was greatly satisfied with the end result, knowing that their crawl space was not only stabilized but fully protected against future issues.

Homeowners in Freedom, ME reached out to TC Hafford Basement Systems after being highly recommended by their neighbors. Their crawl space needed sealing to protect against water intrusion and damage. We installed our two-step encapsulation system with drainage matting and a CleanSpace liner. Drainage matting helps channel groundwater underneath the CleanSpace liner directly to the new SmartSump with UltraSump battery back up. The SmartSump pumps water away from the home so it will not cause any damage. The CleanSpace liner seals water out, and is an inorganic material that prevents mold growth within the crawl space. 

Before TC Hafford Basement Systems got to this home, the crawl space was dirty, damp, leaky, and gross. As most crawl spaces are. The space was hard to access, it wasn't pleasant to walk through, water was settling in areas causing odors and risk of mold. These homeowners knew it was important to consider the air qualiy in their crawl space, as that's the air their family breathes in the rest of the home. 

A System Design Specialist visited the home and inspected the space. Working with the homeowner, they were able to design a system custom for this space that will keep it dry and neat. Our production crew went out and did a great job transforming this space into a safe, dry, odorless, usable area. We installed WaterGuard around the perimeter of the basement, which directed water into the new sump pump in the crawl space. CleanSpace and a SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier were also installed in the Crawl Space. 

We recently helped Atkinson, Maine homeowners to improve the insulation in their basement so they no longer had to deal with cold floors in their home. Spray Foam insulation was installed on the walls and rim joists, filling all the gaps to create an air tight seal. Spray Foam is also water and mold resistant, making it a great option for basements and crawl spaces to act as a vapor barrier as well. Homeowners typically notice immediate improvements to their home energy after the Spray Foam is installed.

A Tenants Harbor, Maine home was under contract to sell, but the crawl space was damp and had musty odors. The buyers were interested in encapsulating the crawl space to prevent any damage or smells. We installed our two-step encapsulation system, including drainage matting and a CleanSpace vapor barrier liner. CleanSpace seals out moisture, and because it is an inorganic material it also prevents mold growth. Spray Foam insulation was installed on the walls and rim joists to create an air tight seal, and provides immediate energy efficiency improvements.
