TC Hafford Basement Systems Before & After Photos

Homeowners in Scarborough, Maine had leaking basement walls, causing water to pool and run across their basement floor. To address the leaking walls, we installed BrightWall, a wall paneling system that acts as a vapor barrier. BrightWall allows water to stay behind the panel, funneling it down to the new WaterGuard perimeter drainage system. The BrightWall panels give the basement a fresh, clean appearance, and they are durable and easy to clean. WaterGuard connects to their new TripleSafe sump pump (not pictured here), to pump away any incoming moisture. The basement looks great and will stay dry for years to come!

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. In order to fully protect the basement, Tom put together a solution using WaterGuard perimeter drain and a TripleSafe Sump Pump. 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.

We helped this New Gloucester, Maine crawl space that had cold, sagging floors, and the owners were also concerned about rodents and mold. Moisture had weakened a wooden support beam to the point that the beam was cracking and rotting away. The weakened beam was causing the floors above to sag. To address the moisture, we encapsulated the space with drainage matting and CleanSpace vapor barrier. These products work together to control the groundwater and seal moisture out of the crawl space, keeping the wooden supports protected from rot and mold. The encapsulation also seals off any access points so rodents cannot enter the space. We also installed SmartJacks and a new supplemental beam to keep the home properly supported. SmartJacks are steel posts that are custom fit and can be adjusted to lift and return the floors above to level. They have a zinc coating to prevent the posts from rusting. The homeowners now enjoy level floors, and their crawl space is dry and mold free!
