TC Hafford Basement Systems Before & After Photos

Moving into a home with no prior moisture protection in the basement, this homeowner needed a way to keep water from leaking into their new home in the future. Our team at TC Hafford Basement Systems was able to provide a solution to this problem with a WaterGuard piping installation around the basement perimeter. The buried WaterGuard system captures moisture as it leaks in towards the interior. With a new SuperSump pump installed, the WaterGuard is able to remove the collected water from the basement by passing it through the sump. Finally, a CleanSpace liner was used to encapsulate the interior walls of the basement and Spray Foam was used to fill gaps in the joists above the space. This provides one final layer of defense against the elements; with the CleanSpace holding back any moisture that may enter through the walls as the Spray Foam provides improved heating/cooling efficiency for the homeowner.

With these new installations, this homeowner can now rest assured their new basement won’t be susceptible to flooding and moisture damage. The WaterGuard system will keep this basement water-free for years to come!

This Cherryfield, ME, home was at risk of it’s foundation totally failing which could ruin the home and make it unsafe to live in. The homeowner couldn’t wait long for a solution so they called TC Hafford Basement Systems for a free estimate. System Design Specialist Stacy Hafford worked with the homeowner to design a StableLock Wall System that would protect their home and prevent the foundation from collapsing.

StabeLock Wall System uses modern concrete forming and shoring techniques to fill the voids of the existing wall and stabilizing it to leave a smooth wall. Traditionally, a failing foundation would be repaired but lifting the home and a new foundation being poured. The homeowner would have to move out for a period of time and the costs can be astronomical. With StableLock, the homeowner never has to leave the home and they can save money all while getting the benefit of a new foundation wall. Now that StableLock has been installed, the homeowner and their family can live in their home without being concerned that their safety is at risk.

Every time heavy rain comes through, this Machiasport, ME basement fills with a couple of inches of water, causing severe moisture issues for the homeowner. It’s important to take care of issues like this quickly to prevent damage that can ruin the health of the home and create an unsafe space to live in. The homeowner scheduled a free estimate with TC Hafford Basement Systems and worked with System Design Specialist Craig Ziegenbein to design an encapsulation system that would help the homeowner protect their home's health.

CleanSpace with Drainage Matting is laid on the ground to create a channel for water and an inorganic barrier between the CleanSpace and the outside elements. The CleanSpace Wall System was installed to create a full encapsulation system to keep moisture out of the space. The water has to go somewhere, so a SmartSump Sump Pump was installed to pump water through the new Exterior Buried Discharge Line. To keep the system running all year, even during the winter, IceGuard was installed on the Discharge Line to prevent ice from building up. Finally, a SaniDry Sedona was installed and connected to a condensate pump that drains to the SmartSump. Now, humidity will stay at a safe level, and the homeowner will never have to worry about emptying a bucket of water. The space is fully encapsulated, and the home’s health is protected.

This homeowner living in Princeton, ME was in dire need of a waterproofing system below their home. The leakage had gotten so bad, the homeowner couldn’t even walk on their basement floor without covering their feet with water. After seeing us on their TV and contacting our Wells office, we were able to set this homeowner up with a free estimate. When our installation crew got to work on the basement, they began by excavating the old concrete slab to replace it with new one. The new slab came equipped with WaterGuard piping laid around the exterior edge, but beneath the surface. These pipes will collect any moisture entering through the foundation from now-on and guide the collected water to the TripleSafe sump pump installed nearby. The TripleSafe will now force any water out of the out of the home through a PVC discharge line. Lastly, a CleanSpace wall system was put in surrounding the basement interior. This will brighten up the space as well as providing a barrier against any moisture that might enter through the walls of the basement.

With proper waterproofing below their home, this homeowner can not make use of their basement again. The WaterGuard piping will keep this floor water-free for years down the road!
