A homeowner in Kennebunkport, Maine, recently underwent an energy audit that revealed significant insulation deficiencies throughout their home. Concerned about their energy efficiency and wanting a permanent fix, they contacted TC Hafford Basement Systems for a solution. Our team performed a thorough assessment, inspecting not only the attic but also the basement, where much of the heat loss was occurring.

We recommended Dr. Energy Saver spray foam for both the attic and basement. Spray foam creates a continuous air-seal that prevents drafts and eliminates cold air from penetrating these key areas. By insulating the basement, we were able to address the heat loss at the foundation level, which is a critical area often overlooked. Along with this, we suggested insulating the attic floor with TrueSoft cellulose to increase the home's ability to retain heat, and we used Zip Foam to air-seal the attic floor, ensuring no warm air would escape through gaps.

The homeowner was impressed by the comprehensive approach we provided, as it addressed the insulation issues from the top of the home all the way down to the basement. These solutions would not only make the house more comfortable year-round but also deliver lasting energy savings. The homeowner expressed great satisfaction with how much better insulated and energy-efficient their home had become for the long term.

A home in Kennebunkport had quite a nasty crawlspace, as well as an occasionally wet basement, and the homeowner thought it was time to do something about it. Having heard about TC Hafford Basement Systems from another satisfied customer, they quickly contacted us, and Peter Folsom went out to check out the property. Once the homeowner decided on what they wanted done, our team got to work.

Working in the crawlspace, the team covered the floors and walls with CleanSpace Crawl Space Encapsulation System, which will keep any moisture from the ground locked out, as well as bacteria that might have tried to migrate into the crawlspace. The homeowner also had our team install a SaniDry XP, to keep the air humidity within reasonable levels; making the basement and crawlspace uninhabitable for mold.

Over in the basement, the team installed a WaterGuard system to capture all the water coming into the basement through the ground and walls. This system was then connected to the SuperSump sump pump, which was put in to pump the water outside of the home.
