Crawl Space Repair Before & After Photos

This homeowner living in Strong, ME had been experiencing a musty smell propagating their home from their damp crawlspace. Without any form of waterproofing, the crawlspace was open to the elements. Looking for ways to remedy this issue, they contacted us at TC Hafford Basement Systems, and we set them up with a free estimate. After hearing what their options were, they hired us to solve their moisture problem and our crew was dispatched to the home to get started. In order to keep outside moisture from building up in the crawlspace in the future, a vapor barrier would be needed. This began with Drainage Matting being laid across the dirt floor of the crawlspace. Next, a CleanSpace liner was used to encapsulate the interior of the space, sealing it off from the outside moisture. Now when water leaks in through the earth, the CleanSpace liner will block its entry into the crawlspace while the Drainage Matting provides channels for the water to travel toward where it can most easily escape back into the ground.

With a proper vapor barrier to hold back moisture, this homeowner should notice their moisture problem dissipate very soon. The CleanSpace liner will keep this crawlspace interior water-free for years to come!

When a homeowner in Farmington, Maine, reached out to TC Hafford Basement Systems, their crawl space was in desperate need of attention. Standing only about four feet high, the area had a dirt floor and excessive moisture, creating an uncomfortable and potentially damaging environment for the home. The homeowner was concerned about the long-term effects of the damp conditions and wanted an estimate for encapsulation.

After assessing the situation, our team determined that the best course of action would be to install a CleanSpace liner along with drainage matting to effectively control moisture. We also recommended a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier to maintain optimal humidity levels, along with spray foam insulation for added protection. The transformation was dramatic, turning the wet and unusable crawl space into a dry, clean, and energy-efficient area. The homeowner was extremely satisfied with the quality of work and the lasting benefits to their home.

Before our team arrived, the homeowner in Southport, Maine, faced the challenge of a damp, dirt-floor crawl space. The space was prone to moisture issues, which could lead to problems like mold, poor air quality, and structural damage if left unaddressed. They knew it was time to take action. After assessing the situation, TC Hafford Basement Systems recommended installing the CleanSpace liner, drainage matting, and a SmartDrain. This system would effectively block moisture from entering while allowing any water to drain out safely.

The transformation was remarkable. What was once a vulnerable, exposed dirt crawl space is now fully encapsulated and protected from moisture. The homeowner was thrilled to have a dry, secure area under their home that will protect their property for years to come.

Looking to keep humidity out of the crawlspace below their home, this Manchester, ME homeowner called us at TC Hafford Basement Systems. After receiving their free estimate, they hired us to provide a proper vapor barrier within the space. Our installation crew got started by laying a Drainage Matting across the dirt floor of the crawlspace. This layer rests just off the surface of the floor to create small channels that moisture can flow through without becoming trapped. The water will pool up in the natural low point of the space on its own to drain harmlessly back into the ground. Next, a CleanSpace liner was used to encapsulate the entire interior of the crawlspace. This waterproof layer finishes the vapor barrier installation, providing the protection against moisture accumulation the homeowner was seeking. Now during harsh rain or melting snow, any leaking moisture will be blocked by the CleanSpace without gathering in the crawlspace and causing humidity problems for the property owner.

With a proper vapor barrier in place, this Manchester, ME homeowner can rest assured their moisture problems are a thing of the past. The Drainage Matting & CleanSpace combination will maintain a dry crawlspace below this home for many years into the future.

When the homeowner in Appleton, Maine, first contacted TC Hafford Basement Systems, their crawl space was a major concern. They had noticed uneven floors and signs of moisture buildup, which could lead to long-term damage if not addressed. The crawl space had no moisture barrier in place, and the support beams were beginning to weaken under the strain. Without proper protection, the space was prone to mold growth and structural instability, making the home’s foundation vulnerable.

Following our comprehensive evaluation, we installed a SmartJack system, providing the essential support to stabilize the floor above and correct the unevenness that had been a source of worry. Next, we fitted the CleanSpace liner system, which sealed off the crawl space from outside moisture, ensuring a dry and healthy environment. Finally, the installation of the SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier guaranteed that humidity levels would stay low, keeping the crawl space mold-free and well-protected.

The transformation was remarkable. What was once an unstable and damp space became a solid, dry, and secure foundation for the home. The homeowner was greatly satisfied with the end result, knowing that their crawl space was not only stabilized but fully protected against future issues.
