A homeowner in Old Town, ME, reached out to TC Hafford Basement Systems to address cold drafts coming through the floor of their indoor porch. They wanted a solution that would improve comfort without disrupting the appearance of the space. Our team conducted a thorough assessment and determined that Dr. Energy Saver spray foam insulation would be the perfect fit for the job. We applied the spray foam to the underside of the porch flooring, creating a solid barrier to keep the cold out. After the installation, the homeowner noticed an immediate difference in temperature and was extremely pleased with how much warmer the space had become.
Dampness, rot, and rodents are not how you want to describe the conditions of your crawl space, but for this Hancock, ME homeowner, this is the reality. After owning the home for 15 years and looking to eventually make this their forever home, the homeowner called TC Hafford Basement Systems for help.
System Design Specialist Nima Farshid met with the homeowner and spent time in the crawl space to design a system that would meet the needs of the home and the expectations of the homeowner. This included removing the old insulation and debris so that the work could begin. CleanSpace with Drainage Matting was laid down to create an inorganic barrier that keeps the outside elements where they belong. Encapsulating the crawl space ensures that wind, moisture, and critters can’t cause damage to the home. Wanting to make sure the home stays energy efficient, Spray Foam was installed to seal and insulate the area. Finally, a CleanSpace Vent Cover was installed to fully encapsulate the crawl space.
The homeowner can rest easy knowing their home is protected from the elements and is more energy efficient, saving them money on their energy bill in the future.
