When our installation crew arrived at the home, their goal was to provide a more comfortable floor than the existing concrete foundation. They installed ThermalDry flooring tiles across the floor of the space. These tiles are topped with a firm plastic layer that will maintain a much higher natural temperature, compared to the cold concrete below. Below this top layer, the ThermalDry rests on a thick foam base. This provides comfort with each step, while small channels built into the foam can allow for any moisture build-up to find its way to the sump and flow out of the home. This will provide the homeowner will the flooring they needed to help complete their basement!

With their new flooring, this homeowner can now move on to furnishing the space to finally finish it. The ThermalDry tiles will ensure the basement stays insulated and dry for years to come!

A homeowner in East Wakefield had a problem with their crawlspace. Every time it would rain, the crawlspace would flood, and this created the perfect atmosphere for mold to grow. Mold growth in the crawlspace is not only unsightly, but the spores could reach the interior of the home and cause health issues for the homeowner. Needing a way to not only prevent the mold growth, but to also waterproof their crawlspace, the homeowner called TC Hafford Basement Systems shortly after seeing us on their television. We inspected the crawlspace, gave the homeowner their free estimate, and we got to work.

We began by installing a SmartDrain in the floor of the crawlspace. This way any water gathering there would drain out. Next, we covered the wall/floor joint of the crawlspace with a Drainage Matting. This mat will hold back moisture and allow it time to drain either back through the soil or into the SmartDrain. We then encapsulated the crawlspace with a CleanSpacec Liner. This covers the entire crawlspace except for the ceiling, completely locking out the moisture trying to enter. Finally, we installed a SaniDry CX dehumidifier. This will remove any remaining moisture in the air, as well as maintaining a dry, healthy atmosphere within the crawlspace in the future that is uninhabitable for mold. Now this homeowner has a dry, mold free crawlspace that will remain that way for many years.

Dana from East Wakefield was having a problem with a couple of cracks that had formed in his basement. These two cracks would leak water into the basement during any heavy rain, and Dana needed something to be done about this. He searched the internet for a solution, and found it; TC Hafford Basement Systems. He contacted us immediately, and we sent a representative to give a free estimate of what could be done, and how much it would cost. After discussing options, the homeowner made his decision and we got to work.

We stated the process of fixing the cracks by filling each crack with a sealant. This sealant is the first step of three for the installation of FlexiSpan. Secondly, we cover this sealant with a foam pad, this pad covers the crack completely and helps prevent water from leaking in around the first layer of sealant. Finally, the foam is covered over with a layer of sealant. This sealant holds it all in place, and acts as a final line of defense against water. The way FlexiSpan is structured allows for it to shift, should the wall around the crack alter at all; hence the name, FlexiSpan. Now this homeowner no longer needs to worry about water entering through these two cracks, they have been completely sealed off from outside moisture.
