Farmingdale, ME homeowners had finished their basement only to find it was constantly cold and drafty. They contacted TC Hafford Basement Systems to insulate the space and take advantage of the state's energy rebates. System Design Specialist Josh H. helped guide them through the right solution to insulate their basement. We installed SprayFoam Insulation to keep the space air tight and moisture free. Now our homeowners can truly relax and enjoy the finished basement area.
We recently completed insulating a brand new large garage build in Bath, Maine. We installed rockwool insulation on the garage walls, which is a great alternative to traditional fiberglass insulation. Rockwool is fire resistant, as well as water and mold resistant, whereas fiberglass insulation can absorb water, keeping it damp and primed for mold growth. Rockwool is also very durable and does not sag or settle like fiberglass insulation will. On the ceiling we used Spray Foam insulation to ensure all of the nooks and crannies were air tight. Spray Foam provides immediate energy savings and improvement.
This crawl space in Bath, ME, was giving the homeowner a laundry list of issues that were causing them to spend money on costly repairs. Concerned about the water in their crawl space and pipes freezing during the winter months, this homeowner decided to take action and book a free estimate with TC Hafford Basement Systems. System Design Specialist Nick Ciciarelli worked with the homeowner to design a complete encapsulation system that would take care of the dirt floor, drafty walls, and the water coming into their basement.
The area was regraded, and Drainage Matting was laid on the ground to create an inorganic barrier between the dirt and the new Slab that needed to be poured. Before the new Slab could be poured, WaterGuard was installed around the perimeter to catch and channel water to the brand new TripleSafe Sump Pump with Battery Backup. The water has to go somewhere, so the TripleSafe is connected to an Exterior Buried Discharge that is protected against ice buildup with IceGuard installed. With the crawl space waterproofed, the new Slab was able to be poured, and SprayFoam was installed along the rim joists and walls where needed to insulate the crawl space and protect the pipes underneath the home from freezing. The last step in setting up this crawl space for success was the installation of a SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier that drains directly to the TripleSafe so the homeowner never has to empty a bucket and the crawl space stays at a safe humidity level all the time.
Now the homeowner is happy knowing their crawl space is no longer a nightmare and their home and family will be safer and healthier.
