TC Hafford Basement Systems Before & After Photos

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.

We received a call from a homeowner in New Gloucester, ME and System Design Specialist Tom Rich went out to meet with the homeowner for a free estimate.

Now the homeowner can rest easy knowing that water will no longer be an issue!

Looking to replace their damaged gutters and save themselves from climbing a ladder to clear out debris, this New Gloucester, ME, homeowner reached out to Gutter Shutter by TC Hafford Basement Systems for help. System Design Specialist Josh Hamel met with the owner, and together they designed a Gutter Shutter system that would protect their home and look great. With a larger 6-inch gutter and the unique built-in Shutter design, the homeowner no longer has to worry about climbing a dangerous ladder to clean debris out. Ice build-up is a thing of the past now, ensuring the homeowner is also safer during the harsh winter months.

Since moving in, this Cumberland Foreside, ME, homeowner has had issues with puddles in their basement. Wanting to keep the puddles outside, they called TC Hafford Basement Systems to book a free estimate. System Design Specialist Jordan Tarbox met with the homeowner to discuss their goals and design a waterproofing system that would protect the health of the home.

To keep puddles from forming, WaterGuard was installed around the problem areas to catch water and channel it to a SuperSump Plus. The SuperSump Plus will take the water from WaterGuard and any groundwater and push it through an exterior Buried Discharge Line. IceGuard is installed on the Discharge Line, ensuring the system will work year-round without the concern of ice building up and blocking the system.

The homeowner is now able to live worry-free, knowing TC Hafford Basement Systems has solved their water problems and offers annual maintenance to keep the basement dry for the life of the home.

A crack in their basement wall has led to water on their floor, and this North Yarmouth, ME, homeowner wanted to address the issue before it caused any damage to their home or belongings. They reached out to TC Hafford Basement Systems to schedule a free estimate, and System Design Specialist Ron Bedard met with the homeowner and worked with them to design a system specific to their home’s basement.

The CleanSpace Wall System was installed over the problem area on the wall to catch and channel water to the newly installed WaterGuard Perimeter drainage system. WaterGuard channels water to a TripleSafe Sump Pump that is powerful enough to handle the water and push it through a Buried Exterior Discharge Line. To prevent ice from building up and to keep the system running all year round, IceGuard was installed on the discharge line. Finally, TrenchDrain was installed in high-traffic areas, catching every bit of water possible, and the old sump pump hole was filled in as it is no longer useful.

Now the home is protected, and the homeowner doesn’t have to worry about cracks creating puddles in their basement.
