Before & After Photos

When this Newport, ME homeowner contacted us at TC Hafford Basement Systems with a water leakage problem, we had just the permanent solution they were looking for! Following their free estimate, our installation crew began work on the home by excavating a shallow trench into the majority of the existing basement floor. This was soon replaced with a fresh concrete slab as well as a WaterGuard piping system buried within the perimeter. A TripleSafe sump pump was installed in the basement floor nearby with the WaterGuard feeding directly into it. The TripleSafe system houses three pumps; two pumps to handle the bulk of the water with a third, battery-operated backup pump to handle any power-outages. Finally, a CleanSpace wall system was put in place, covering the walls of the space with a water-tight seal that drains down into the WaterGuard below. Now during any rainfall or melting snow, leaking moisture will be captured by the WaterGuard before reaching the surface of the floor and forced out of the home through the TripleSafe discharge line.

With these waterproofing solutions in place, this homeowner can now rest assured their basement will remain water-free all year-round. The WaterGuard piping working in tandem with a TripleSafe pump will prevent future leaking in this basement for years to come!

A homeowner in Cushing reached out to TC Hafford Basement Systems to get help with their walkout basement that had water coming in. The homeowner had plans to finish the basement, and wanted to ensure it was dry before doing the renovations. Our System Design Specialist came up with a plan to install a SmartSump system with WaterGuard, as well as Spray Foam Insulation. The SmartSump was installed to capture water and pump it through the new Exterior Buried Discharge line. The Discharge line takes the water far from the home and with the installation of IceGuard, the entire system is protected against ice buildup in the winter. We identified that spray foam insulation from Doctor Energy Saver would be a great fit for this project as well. We applied the foam throughout the basement walls, and the results were outstanding. The insulation made a noticeable difference and helped prepare the space to be finished and enjoyed. 

Looking to both waterproof and finish their basement, this homeowner living in Hope, ME contacted us at TC Hafford Basement Systems shortly after seeing us on their TV. After giving the homeowner a free estimate on the job, our crew got to work protecting the space from future water build up by installing a WaterGuard system beneath the surface of the floor. To remove any water collected by the WaterGuard, a TripleSafe sump pump was put in; with the WaterGuard feeding directly into it. Next, to brighten up the interior of the basement and provide a layer covering the cold concrete walls, BrightWall panels were installed around the entire basement. Finally, TD Elite Flooring was installed across the floor of the basement. Now this basement is protected against any future leaks and has a pleasant finished look for the homeowner.

Living with a damp basement for some time, this Hope, ME homeowner was in the market for a solution to their problem. After a call to us at TC Hafford Basement Systems and a free estimate from our sales rep., they were ready to have us get started on a WaterGuard installation to protect their basement. When our installation crew arrived at the home, they got started on the project by excavating the existing slab to replace it with a fresh slab fitted with a Drainage Matting beneath. A WaterGuard piping system was installed around the perimeter of the new basement floor, hidden just below the surface. Once the slab dries, the WaterGuard piping will capture any moisture leaking in through the foundation in the future through small slits along the lower edge of the piping. The WaterGuard feeds directly into a TripleSafe sump system installed in the floor as well. The TripleSafe houses three pumps, including a battery-powered backup pump to keep the basement completely free of water year-round. Finally, the discharge line leaving the home was fitted with IceGuard & LawnScape pipe segments to provide further protection against ice or debris that might have otherwise blocked the line and caused problems.

With these new installations below their home, this homeowner now has the permanent waterproofing solution they were looking for. The WaterGuard & TripleSafe combination will maintain a dry basement for this homeowner for years to come!

These homeowners in Thomaston, ME were ready to upgrade their basement and crawlspace into a more pleasant space. After normal movement and pressure against the foundation walls, they've experienced some water leaking in and damaging the walls and floors. The crawl space became difficult to walk through, and the moisture made the air quality very poor. 

We were called to give an estimate to repair this space. A system design specialist went out and designed a complete system custom for this space to keep it dry all the time. A SmartSump pump system was installed to collect and drain any water that enters the space. IceGuard allows the water to flow from the sump pump out through the discharge line without freezing. Our CleanSpace crawl space encapsulation system was installed in the crawl space with Drainage Matting underneath. We also recommended a SaniDry to control odors, mold and humidity. 

The space is now dry, clean, odorless, and safe. The best part it, it will stay like this for the life of the home! With yearly servicing we can ensure it all works perfectly and add on whenever necessary.
