Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

Saco, ME homeowners reached out to TC Hafford Basement Systems for a free estimate on encapsulating their crawl space. They were tired of dealing with a cold, dusty space they felt they couldn't use. System Design Specialist Peter F. created a plan to insulate and encapsulate the space. To fully encapsulate the crawl space and keep moisture and critters out, 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. Foamax wall insulation panels were also installed to act as a moisture barrier, as well as insulate the space. The homeowners can now store their belongings without everything getting dusty, and save money on their energy bills at the same time!

Saco, ME homeowners hadn't been down into their crawl space for years when they realized it was failing. It had dirt floors and moisture coming in, ruining their old fiberglass insulation. We cleaned out the debris from the old insulation and encapsulated the space with our two-step process. First a layer of drainage matting is added to channel ground water underneath the CleanSpace liner. CleanSpace is a vapor barrier that seals out water, and prevents mold growth. A SmartSump pump with UltraSump batter back up was installed to pump water away from the home. Lastly, SprayFoam insulation was installed on the walls and rim joists to create an air tight seal. SprayFoam will immediately provide energy savings, and gets into the nooks and crannies better than their old fiberglass insulation. The homeowners no longer have to worry about what water damage may be happening in their crawl space.

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.

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.
