Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

This Kittery homeowner reached out to TC Hafford Basement Systems after their basement flooded for a second time. We protected their basement using WaterGuard connected to our TripleSafe Sump System. From the TripleSafe, all water is pushed out of a buried discharge line, far away from the house and in an area that will no longer cause any issues for the homeowner.

Typically, this would be the end of the work, but this homeowner has a crawl space connected to the basement that would still need to be delt with to fully protect the home and give the homeowner piece of mind. To do this, foreman Jesus and his crew put down a layer of Drainage Matting and encapsulated the crawl space with CleanSpace and Spray Foam.

Now this Kittery homeowner can sleep easy at night knowing they no longer have to worry about waking up to anymore floods in their basement.

This Kittery, ME, homeowner had a crawl space connected to their basement with a dirt floor. Even though there was a sheet of plastic over the dirt, the homeowner wanted to install a vapor barrier to protect the home and retain it’s value. The homeowner called TC Hafford Basement Systems and booked a free estimate with System Design Specialist Michael Penna.

The crawl space was prepped by removing the old plastic and regrading the area to flatten it out a bit. Drainage Matting was laid on the ground and is designed to collect water from the crawl space floor and direct it to a sump pump. CleanSpace was then installed and attached to the walls to create a vapor barrier and protect the crawl space from moisture and critters. CleanSpace features a thick and durable inorganic construction that brightens up the area and turns a humid crawl space into the perfect storage area. Currently this crawl space is dry, but the homeowner wanted to be as protected as possible, so they opted to install a Sump Liner for the easy installation of a Zoeller sump pump if needed in the future. To finish out the system, a SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier was installed and CleanSpace Vent Covers to keep the outside air from coming into the crawl space.

Isolating a crawl space from moisture from the earth, is critical to a healthy and happy home. At this home in New Castle, NH, TC Hafford Basement Systems used multiple exclusive products to give the homeowner peace of mind and a healthy home. 

CleanSpace with drainage matting underneath is installed to keep moisture from the earth out of the crawl space and a SaniDry Sedona will work to keep the humidity in the crawl space low. Perforated pipe will direct groundwater to the SmartSump where it will push water out to a discharge line and far away from the homeowners crawl space. In the event of a power outage, the UltraSump Battery Back Up is installed to protect the space without hiccup.

Not only does the homeowner no longer have to worry about their crawl space, but now they have a usable area for storage and their home is better protected against the elements. 

The homeowners were experiencing some water in their basement through the walls and the old window. They wanted to solve the problem, prevent future issues, and eliminate moisture and humidity. After contacting TC Hafford Basement Systems, a team of specialists were able to successfully solve all of these issues. A System Design Specialist determined that the space was in need of a CleanSpace encapsulation system with Drainage Matting. They Installed a new SaniDry XP Basement Air System to keep the humidity low, and a new window to help with leaks. 

After experiencing dampness in their basement for some time, this Harrison, ME homeowner hired us at TC Hafford Basement Systems to solve their wet basement problem. To protect this space from moisture in the future, the existing slab was excavated from the basement to make room for a completely waterproof slab installation. With a freshly poured slab, our crew installed a Drainage Matting beneath the surface, along with a CleanSpace liner to wrap the walls of the basement. A SuperSump pump was also installed in the new floor, providing a means for any gathering moisture to be pumped out and away from the home. Now water leaking in through the walls or up from below the floor will be blocked by the new vapor barrier and redirected back out of the home through either the ground or the sump.

These basement upgrades will enable this homeowner to make use of their basement once again without the fear of water damage. The new vapor barrier will ensure their basement remains dry in the future!
