Foundation Repair Photo Album: Moving Wall and Wet Basement Causing Problems for Homeowner

A moving wall was creating problems for this Bridgton, ME, homeowner, leading to an unstable foundation and water in their basement. Wanting to get ahead of the issue before springtime when the water is worse, the homeowner called TC Hafford Basement Systems for a free estimate. System Design Specialist Sam Crowley met with the homeowner, and together they designed a waterproofing and foundation repair system that would meet the needs of the home and protect their family. When a foundation begins to move or break down, the home would have to be lifted and a new foundation poured in its place. With StableLock Wall System, the homeowner never has to leave the comfort of their home. StableLock is a quicker and more cost-effective solution to a failing foundation using modern shoring and forming methods. StableLock fills the voids of the failing wall, stabilizing it and leaving a new, smooth wall in its place. To catch groundwater and keep the basement dry, WaterGuard was installed where needed to channel water to the new TripleSafe Sump Pump. The TripleSafe sump pump features two Zoeller pumps with an included battery-powered backup pump. The battery backup pump comes on in the event of a power outage, keeping the homeowner protected from water coming into their basement and causing issues. The TripleSafe takes the water and pumps it out through the new Exterior Buried Discharge line. The Discharge line takes the water far from the home, and with the installed IceGuard, the system is protected against ice buildup, and the system runs all year without issue. To finish the waterproofing system, the homeowner opted to have a SaniDry Sedona installed to keep the humidity in their basement at a safe level. Now the homeowner is able to enjoy their basement and use it for storage without the risk of their belongings being damaged.
