Musty Crawl Space BE GONE!

A Bridgton, ME homeowner has lived in their home for over 40 years and noticed signs that their crawl space needed some help. Musty smells and signs of damage began to raise concerns, so the homeowner reached out to TC Hafford Basement Systems to get help protecting the health and resale value of their home.

System Design Specialist Sam Crowley met with the homeowner to address the issues in the crawl space. The homeowner also wanted to address the issue of cold floors in the winter and groundwater seeping into the crawl space. A system was designed specifically for this crawl space, and Foreman Joshua and his crew installed it. They started by regrading the dirt floor to ensure a level ground, then laid CleanSpace with Drainage Matting. Power Braces were installed to stabilize the walls, and spray foam was used to help encapsulate the crawl space, keeping outside elements outside. Finally, a Smart Sump was installed and connected to an exterior Discharge Line that was buried so it would be out of sight and could carry any water far from the home, where it would no longer pose an issue.
