WaterGuard Installation Protects Damp Hampden, ME Basement from Moisture

After years of living with a flooding basement this homeowner in Hampden, ME contacted us at TC Hafford Basement Systems in order to solve their problem. When our crew arrived, they were able to get started on the damp concrete floor by installing a WaterGuard piping system around the perimeter. This system feeds directly into the TripleSafe sump pump also installed within the floor. Now when any water leaks in towards this basement interior, the WaterGuard system will capture it and force it out of the home through the TripleSafe pump. Finally, an IceGuard pipe segment and LawnScape discharge port were attached to the PVC discharge line used to carry the water from the home.

Now this homeowner can utilize their basement without needing to worry about the constant flooding that they are used to.

Snow Melting Leading to a Wet Basement

In Hampden, ME, this homeowner had a problem with their basement. Anytime the snow melted or heavy rain came down, their basement would get wet. Flooding twice last year, this homeowner was ready to take care of their basement troubles and called TC Hafford Basement Systems for a free estimate. Eager to help, System Design Specialist Craig Ziegenbein met with the homeowner and worked with them to design a system that was specific to their needs.

 

The homeowner wanted to use their basement year-round for storage, so keeping the whole basement dry was important to them. WaterGuard was laid around the perimeter of the basement, with TrenchDrain in high-traffic areas. WaterGuard collects and channels the water to the new TripleSafe Sump Pump, and TrenchDrain ensures all water is collected at the entryways. The TripleSafe Sump Pump is capable of pushing all the water from the WaterGuard out of the basement and through the new Buried Discharge Line. To make sure the system works during the freezing winter months, IceGuard was attached to the Buried Discharge Line to prevent ice buildup. Now the homeowner can use their basement as they please since their basement is fully waterproof and will stay dry all the time.

Stonington, ME Basement Given Full Waterproofing with WaterGuard & CleanSpace Installations

Having lived in this home for most of their life, this Stonington, ME homeowner thought it was time to finally have their dirt basement properly waterproofed. After speaking with our sales representative about what their options were, they hired us at TC Hafford Basement Systems to protect their basement from the usual water leakages. To keep water from building up on the floor in the future, a slab Drainage Matting was laid on the dirt floor before a fresh slab of concrete was poured over the floor. Within this new slab, WaterGuard pipes were buried around the outer edge. These pipes will capture any moisture trying to enter the space through the floor in the future and guide the collected water to the TripleSafe sump pump for removal from the home. Finally, a CleanSpace liner was used to encapsulate the walls of the basement. This will both brighten up the space as well as guide any water coming in through the walls down into the WaterGuard for removal.

With a properly waterproofed basement below their home, this Stonington, ME homeowner can now make use of the space without any moisture negatively affecting their property.

FlexiSpan Installation Protects Corinth, ME Garage from Leaking Water

Looking for a way to seal a couple cracks that had opened along the concrete wall in their garage, this Corinth, ME homeowner called us at TC Hafford Basement Systems to ask about a free estimate. Shortly after they met with our sales representative and reviewed their options, they gave us the go-ahead to begin work on the crack-repair. As soon as our installation crew arrived at the property, they prepared the cracks by brushing them clear of debris using a coarse brush. Once clear, the cracks were covered by an initial layer of sealant. This was quickly covered by a foam pad running the length of each crack. The foam was then covered by a second layer of sealant, completing the FlexiSpan seal over the cracks. The foam core within these seals allows them to bend and remain water-tight against the wall should the concrete walls shift slightly in the future.

With their new seals in place over these cracks, this homeowner Will no longer need to be concerned about water leaking into the garage and polling up on the slab. The FlexiSpan seals will keep this wall water-tight for years to come!

Outdated Sump Replaced with Proper Waterproofing in Sedgwick, ME Basement

Living with an old sump in the basement below their home, this homeowner would occasionally experience a flooding basement when the water entering the space would overwhelm the limited sump. After they called us at TC Hafford Basement Systems, our crew was able to get to work providing a proper waterproofing system below their home to take care of their moisture problems. This began with WaterGuard piping being buried around the outer edge of the basement floor, connected to a SuperSump pump. The new WaterGuard piping will collect any leaking moisture in the future and guide it directly to the sump where it will be removed from the home without reaching the surface of the floor. The water will exit the home through a discharge line protected by both IceGuard & LawnScape pipe segments.

With these systems working in tandem below this home, this homeowner will have no further moisture problems plague their basement. The WaterGuard piping will keep this basement water-free for years to come!
