Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

When a customer in Falmouth, Maine, noticed water seeping into their crawl space, they called TC Hafford for an expert assessment. Our thorough inspection revealed moisture buildup that could lead to long-term damage. We quickly addressed the problem by installing a CleanSpace liner, which prevents water vapor from entering the space, and drainage matting to manage water flow beneath the liner. Dr. Energy Saver spray foam was applied to further insulate and seal the area, while IceGuard provided protection against potential freeze-related damage. The homeowner was relieved by the comprehensive solution and was very satisfied with the transformed crawl space, confident that their home was now safeguarded against future moisture problems.

This homeowner living in Strong, ME had been experiencing a musty smell propagating their home from their damp crawlspace. Without any form of waterproofing, the crawlspace was open to the elements. Looking for ways to remedy this issue, they contacted us at TC Hafford Basement Systems, and we set them up with a free estimate. After hearing what their options were, they hired us to solve their moisture problem and our crew was dispatched to the home to get started. In order to keep outside moisture from building up in the crawlspace in the future, a vapor barrier would be needed. This began with Drainage Matting being laid across the dirt floor of the crawlspace. Next, a CleanSpace liner was used to encapsulate the interior of the space, sealing it off from the outside moisture. Now when water leaks in through the earth, the CleanSpace liner will block its entry into the crawlspace while the Drainage Matting provides channels for the water to travel toward where it can most easily escape back into the ground.

With a proper vapor barrier to hold back moisture, this homeowner should notice their moisture problem dissipate very soon. The CleanSpace liner will keep this crawlspace interior water-free for years to come!

Andrew and his crew did a great job encapsulating this Crawl Space in Portland, ME. Now the homeowner has plenty of storage area that will be protected against  outside elements.  

For several years, these homeowners have been dealing with a moldy, messy basement. In order to use the basement more efficiently, and resell the house easily in the future, they decided to call TC Hafford. Our team of professionals installed a waterproofing system to prevent future leaks, poured a brand new concrete floor, and installed our CleanSpace crawl space encapsulation system. A SaniDry Sedona will keep the humidity low to prevent future growth of mold as well. 

For this Peaks Island, ME homeowner, their crawl space was an active nightmare. Their crawl space was home to musty odors, mold growth, and rodents, and the floors above were freezing during the winter. Tired of their crawl space troubles, the homeowner decided to take action and call TC Hafford Basement Systems for help. A System Design Specialist met with the homeowner for a free estimate and worked with them to design an encapsulation specifically for their crawl space.

This crawl space needed to be sealed and insulated to keep critters and cold air outside, where they belong. CleanSpace with Drainage Matting was first installed to create an inorganic barrier between the crawl space and the ground. Drainage Matting has large dimples to create a gap, which allows groundwater to be channeled without penetrating the CleanSpace. Even though water is currently not an issue for the homeowner, they opted to have a Sump Liner installed. That way, if water becomes an issue in the future, a sump pump can be easily installed without the need to modify their encapsulation system. Spray Foam was applied to the crawl space walls to insulate the area and sprayed on the rim joist to lock in the CleanSpace and provide further insulation.

The homeowner's crawl space is fully encapsulated, and now that it is insulated, their floors won’t be cold in the winter, and any critter that called their crawl space home will no longer be a problem.
