Hancock, ME homeowners contacted TC Hafford Basement Systems for help with their wet basement. They had recently purchased the home and experienced water intrusion as well as high humidity in the space. System Design Specialist Alan N. met with the homeowners to give a free estimate to waterproof the area.
We upgraded the basement flooring from old dirt floors to a brand new slab. Slab WaterGuard was installed around the perimeter of the space to channel water to the brand new TripleSafe sump pump. We also installed CleanSpace Wall System to act as a vapor barrier. SprayFoam insulation was installed along the rim joists and walls as added air and moisture protection. Lastly, we put in a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier to address the high humidity issues in the space. The homeowners can now enjoy their new home without worrying about any water damage!
Dampness, rot, and rodents are not how you want to describe the conditions of your crawl space, but for this Hancock, ME homeowner, this is the reality. After owning the home for 15 years and looking to eventually make this their forever home, the homeowner called TC Hafford Basement Systems for help.
System Design Specialist Nima Farshid met with the homeowner and spent time in the crawl space to design a system that would meet the needs of the home and the expectations of the homeowner. This included removing the old insulation and debris so that the work could begin. CleanSpace with Drainage Matting was laid down to create an inorganic barrier that keeps the outside elements where they belong. Encapsulating the crawl space ensures that wind, moisture, and critters can’t cause damage to the home. Wanting to make sure the home stays energy efficient, Spray Foam was installed to seal and insulate the area. Finally, a CleanSpace Vent Cover was installed to fully encapsulate the crawl space.
The homeowner can rest easy knowing their home is protected from the elements and is more energy efficient, saving them money on their energy bill in the future.
