Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

We helped owners of this Portland, Maine basement with their failing foundation wall. The cinder block wall was shifting in quite a bit, causing concern for the structural integrity of the wall. We poured a new StableLock Wall in front of the failing wall to prevent any further shifting. StableLock Wall is our patented system that has specialized bracing to support the home properly. This solution does not require excavating the old wall, or lifting the home, so it is a less costly and disruptive way to keep the home protected.

An Auburn, ME home was under contract to be purchased by new buyers when a home inspection report found cracking and failure in one of the support beams for the home. The buyers contacted TC Hafford Basement Systems for help saving their home purchase. We installed SmartJacks, a post system that immediately lifts any sagging floors, and provides more than enough support for the beam to safely keep the home secure. The new owners can relax knowing the integrity of their home is intact!

Homeowners in Livermore, Maine had built an addition on their home, but over time the foundation wall connecting to the basement began bowing. The wall had horizontal cracking, indicating a serious structural concern. We installed a new StableLock Wall, which is a poured concrete wall that abuts the failing wall so it will not shift or crack any further. The new wall provides proper stability to the home, and is a less invasive repair than excavation of the old wall, or lifting the home.

New homeowners in Cape Elizabeth, Maine were under contract to purchase their home but the inspection report revealed the horizontal crack in the foundation wall was a big issue. We installed PowerBraces to properly support the home and prevent further shifting. PowerBraces are custom fit and can be adjusted over time to slowly bring the wall back to straight. The PowerBraces are made of zinc-coated steel, so they will never rust like traditional lally columns. Our new homeowners can safely enjoy the house without worry over their foundation.

We helped Cape Elizabeth, Maine homeowners who were experiencing sagging floors and even had slanted cabinets in their home above. We installed SmartJacks with a new steel supplemental beam to give the home proper support. SmartJacks are custom fit steel posts that provide lift to level the floors above.
