A homeowner from Raymond, ME reached out to TC Hafford Basement Systems with a leaky basement problem in the unfinished portion of their space, and they did not want it to affect the finished area. System Design Specialist Sam C. met with the homeowner for a free estimate on what it would take to repair the issue.
We installed WaterGuard along the perimeter and connected to a new TripleSafe Sump Pump. WaterGuard captures and channels water to the TripleSafe, which features two Zoeller sumps and a battery-powered backup. The TripleSafe drains water out of the basement and through an Exterior Buried Discharge line that is protected against ice buildup with IceGuard. Next, to brighten up the interior of the basement and provide a layer covering the cold concrete walls, BrightWall panels were installed over the damaged area. Our homeowner can rest knowing their basement is dry and protected!
With a musty crawlspace beneath their home, this Arundel, ME homeowner knew they wanted to have something done about it. Unsure how to approach the problem on their own, they hired us at TC Hafford Basement Systems to waterproof the space! We quickly got to work pouring a fresh slab of concrete over a newly installed CleanSpace vapor barrier. WaterGuard piping was installed around the perimeter of the crawlspace, beneath the surface of the concrete. The WaterGuard will take in any moisture that might leak in through the floor. This water will be forced out of the home by a nearby TripleSafe sump system. With all these new protections in place, this homeowner will very shortly notice their moisture problem become a thing of the past!
A homeowner in Kennebunkport, Maine, reached out to TC Hafford Basement Systems after an energy audit revealed that their home was losing significant heat through both the attic and basement. We installed Dr. Energy Saver spray foam in both areas, TrueSoft cellulose to insulate the attic floor, and Zip Foam for air sealing. The improvements resulted in a much more comfortable and energy-efficient home.
We installed SmartJack support posts in the customer's basement to stabilize and lift the sagging floor. First, we excavated small areas for the footings, poured concrete to create solid bases, and let them cure. Then, we placed the adjustable steel posts on the footings and secured them to the floor joists above. Finally, we adjusted the posts to provide the necessary support, leveling the floor and restoring stability.
Shortly after acquiring their new home in Kennebunkport, this homeowner needed a way to better protect their crawlspace from the often-damp surroundings. Our industry leading team at TC Hafford Basement Systems was able to provide the permanent solution this homeowner was looking for! Our crew was able to encapsulate the interior of the crawlspace using a CleanSpace liner to keep out the unwanted moisture and brighten up the space. To capture moisture from the air and floor to remove it from the space, a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier was installed and connected to a SuperSump pump placed in the floor. This will eliminate the humidity in the crawlspace and keep the air dry in the future; all while pumping any collected moisture from the home through a discharge pipe.
Now this Kennebunkport, ME crawlspace has been transformed into a usable space for the new homeowner. The CleanSpace liner alongside the SaniDry & SuperSump systems will keep this crawlspace perfectly dry for many years to come!
