Before & After Photos

In Arrowsic, ME, a homeowner faced significant crawl space flooding challenges. In the before photo, you’ll notice water accumulation that posed a risk to the home's foundation. To address this, we installed our reliable TripleSafe Sump Pump, designed to manage high volumes and prevent system failure, alongside an IceGuard system that ensures drainage even in freezing conditions.  This demonstrates our commitment to providing comprehensive, trustworthy solutions that safeguard homes.

Typically needing to make use of a shop-vac to help remove water pooling up in their basement, this Sidney, ME homeowner needed a more permanent solution fast! They called us at TC Hafford Basement Systems and following their free estimate, we were able to begin work on the basement. Once our installation crew arrived at the home, they got started by excavating a portion of the basement floor to make room for a SuperSump pump to be placed flush withing the floor. The SuperSump was further secured with a fresh coat of concrete to fill any remaining cracks in the floor. Now during rainfall or melting snow this new SuperSump will take in and force any leaking water out of the home through a PVC discharge line. This line will carry the water a distance from the home before releasing it onto the ground to drain away.

With a more permanent water removal system in place below their home, this homeowner will no longer need to dry their basement floor themselves. The SuperSump pump will keep this basement water-free for years down the road!

Water had not been shy about leaking into this Chelsea, ME, basement, and after years of using pallets to protect their appliances and belongings, the homeowner decided enough was enough. It was time to call TC Hafford Basement Systems. System Design Specialist Alan Noyes met with the homeowner and put together a plan to give them peace of mind while they travel. The system started with a WaterGuard Perimeter drain connected to a TripleSafe Sump Pump. TrenchDrain was incorporated where necessary, and BrightWall was attached to the walls, not only to brighten the basement but also to add another layer of waterproofing. Finally, a SaniDry Sedona was installed to keep the basement’s humidity at a safe level. The SaniDry Sedona connects to the TripleSafe, meaning the homeowner never has to empty a bucket again. All water is pushed out of the home through a buried discharge line, away from the foundation. Now, the homeowner no longer needs to worry about their basement and can spend their time relaxing on vacation.

Shortly after moving into their dream home, this Augusta, ME, homeowner was faced with a problem: their basement would get wet when it rained. Wanting to use their basement for storage without the risk of having their belongings damaged, the homeowner reached out to TC Hafford Basement Systems for a free estimate to waterproof their basement. System Design Specialist Ken Castillo met with the homeowner, and together they worked on designing a system that would keep their basement dry and their home healthy.

WaterGuard Perimeter drain was installed along the basement walls where necessary to capture groundwater. WaterGuard then channels the water to the new TripleSafe Sump Pump. In high-traffic areas, TrenchDrain was installed to capture the most amount of water possible. TrenchDrain features a grated cover that can be removed to clear the system and still capture surface water in front of stairs, doorways, and more. The TripleSafe Sump Pump has the power to pump 2,220 gallons of water an hour out of the main pump alone. Water is pumped out through a Buried Discharge Line that takes the water away from the home, where it can’t cause any more issues. IceGuard was installed at the base of the discharge line to prevent ice buildup, keeping the system running at 100% all year round. Now the home is safe from water, and the basement can be used for storage without worry.

Augusta, ME homeowner contacted TC Hafford Basement Systems to help address their basement water issues. Water was seeping in where the walls meet the floor, causing frustration for the homeowner. System Design Specialist Jordan T. met with the owner to evaluate the basement's needs.

A SuperSump Plus system was installed to remove any water from the basement through a buried exterior discharge line. WaterGuard and TrenchDrain were installed along the perimeter of the basement to catch the water coming in at the base of the walls and channel it to the SuperSump Plus. BrightWall panels were installed on every wall to cover the cold concrete walls and add a layer of moisture protection. BrightWall freshens up the space, is durable, easy to clean, and never discolors.
