Your Trusted Mount Desert, ME Basement & Crawl Space Repair Contractors

After recently having a vapor barrier installed below their home, this Mount Desert, ME homeowner wanted additional humidity control for their crawlspace. Having done business with us before, they called our office to set up a time for their free estimate on this project. After speaking with our sales representative, the homeowner gave us the green light to begin work!

As soon as our installation crew arrived at the home, they were able to go straight to the crawlspace and begin work. To eliminate any moisture build-up in the atmosphere within the crawlspace, a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier was placed in the space. This device will pull in the damp air surrounding itself and separate the moisture from it. The dried air is then circulated back into the crawlspace where it will cycle more damp air back to the SaniDry, continuing the process until the space is free of moisture. The water that is separated from the air flows through a Condensate Pump, that forces the water out of the home through a discharge line.

Now with both a vapor barrier and a dehumidifier below their home, this homeowner should have no moisture problems develop in the future. The SaniDry Sedona will ensure the air below this home remains dry & healthy for years to come!

With a crack along one of their basement walls, a homeowner living in Mount Desert, ME was beginning to experience some water troubles. Without a way to seal the crack, this homeowner had no way to stop outside water from leaking onto their basement floor. They soon saw an ad for TC Hafford on their TV and called us to receive a free estimate. After hearing their options, they decided to have us get the job done right away.

Once our installation crew arrived on the scene, they started work on this crack by brushing it clear of debris with a coarse brush. Then the first layer of sealant was applied within and around the crack. A foam mat was then place along the length of the crack, covering the first layer of sealant. Finally, a seconad layer of sealant was applied over the top of the foam, completing what is known as a FlexiSpan seal. As the name suggests, the FlexiSpan can adjust to slight changes in the shape of the crack thanks to the foam core. This will now keep out any future leaks that would have otherwise ended up across this basement floor.

Now that the crack below their home has been sealed successfully, this homeowner now has peace of mind during any rainfall. The FlexiSpan seal will keep water out of this basement for many years to come!

A homeowner in Mount Desert had been having trouble with mold growing within his crawlspace. This mold was beginning to cause a smell to form in the space that was spreading through the basement, and up into the home. The homeowner, seeking a way to eliminate moisture build up in the crawlspace, searched online to find a solution. After finding TC Hafford Basement Systems, the homeowner contacted us for a free estimate. We then sent out our crew and got to work!

We began by laying a Drainage Matting around the wall/floor joint of the crawlspace. This mat will hold back water attempting to find its way to the center of the space. The water held by the mat will be given more time to ideally drain back into the surrounding soil. Next, we encapsulated the space with a CleanSpace liner. This liner will lock out any and all water trying to enter the crawlspace. Finally, we installed a SaniDry XP dehumidifier. This will maintain a dry atmosphere within the crawlspace, eliminating the mold by removing its habitat.

This homeowner now has a dry basement and systems in place to keep it that way!
