Before & After Photos

Having lived in this home for most of their life, this Stonington, ME homeowner thought it was time to finally have their dirt basement properly waterproofed. After speaking with our sales representative about what their options were, they hired us at TC Hafford Basement Systems to protect their basement from the usual water leakages. To keep water from building up on the floor in the future, a slab Drainage Matting was laid on the dirt floor before a fresh slab of concrete was poured over the floor. Within this new slab, WaterGuard pipes were buried around the outer edge. These pipes will capture any moisture trying to enter the space through the floor in the future and guide the collected water to the TripleSafe sump pump for removal from the home. Finally, a CleanSpace liner was used to encapsulate the walls of the basement. This will both brighten up the space as well as guide any water coming in through the walls down into the WaterGuard for removal.

With a properly waterproofed basement below their home, this Stonington, ME homeowner can now make use of the space without any moisture negatively affecting their property.

Living with an old sump in the basement below their home, this homeowner would occasionally experience a flooding basement when the water entering the space would overwhelm the limited sump. After they called us at TC Hafford Basement Systems, our crew was able to get to work providing a proper waterproofing system below their home to take care of their moisture problems. This began with WaterGuard piping being buried around the outer edge of the basement floor, connected to a SuperSump pump. The new WaterGuard piping will collect any leaking moisture in the future and guide it directly to the sump where it will be removed from the home without reaching the surface of the floor. The water will exit the home through a discharge line protected by both IceGuard & LawnScape pipe segments.

With these systems working in tandem below this home, this homeowner will have no further moisture problems plague their basement. The WaterGuard piping will keep this basement water-free for years to come!

System Design Specialist Stacy H. met with an East Millinocket, ME homeowner to give a free estimate on repairing their leaking basement. The homeowner has cinder block walls which are prone to water issues. To fully protect their basement and keep the whole space dry, we installed CleanSpace, drainage matting, WaterGuard, and a TripleSafe sump pump. The CleanSpace is a durable, inorganic vapor barrier that gets attached to the walls and seals up the space, keeping moisture out. Drainage Matting is a durable barrier with dimples to help channel water and elevate the CleanSpace, keeping it clean. WaterGuard captures and channels water to the TripleSafe, which features two Zoeller sumps and a battery-powered backup. The TripleSafe drains water out of the basement and through an Exterior Buried Discharge line.

Moving into a home with no prior moisture protection in the basement, this homeowner needed a way to keep water from leaking into their new home in the future. Our team at TC Hafford Basement Systems was able to provide a solution to this problem with a WaterGuard piping installation around the basement perimeter. The buried WaterGuard system captures moisture as it leaks in towards the interior. With a new SuperSump pump installed, the WaterGuard is able to remove the collected water from the basement by passing it through the sump. Finally, a CleanSpace liner was used to encapsulate the interior walls of the basement and Spray Foam was used to fill gaps in the joists above the space. This provides one final layer of defense against the elements; with the CleanSpace holding back any moisture that may enter through the walls as the Spray Foam provides improved heating/cooling efficiency for the homeowner.

With these new installations, this homeowner can now rest assured their new basement won’t be susceptible to flooding and moisture damage. The WaterGuard system will keep this basement water-free for years to come!

With a large crack down the length of their basement wall and allowing water to easily leak in, this Ellsworth, ME homeowner was in need of professional waterproofing. After they contacted our office staff, we were able to get our crew on the job! They first sealed the crack with a three-part FlexiSpan seal, before lining the walls with a CleanSpace liner. While the FlexiSpan keeps the crack water-tight, the CleanSpace will brighten up the space while providing a secondary barrier against possible moisture leakage through the wall. Next, to keep water from leaking through the foundation, WaterGuard piping was installed around the perimeter of the floor leading into a SuperSump pump. This pump, alongside a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier and UltraSump backup battery will keep this basement completely water free, by removing any collected moisture through a PVC discharge line leading out of the home. This line is further protected on the exterior of the home with an IceGuard pipe segment to prevent backing up water from entering the home again.

With their newly waterproofed basement, this homeowner can now make use of their basement however they wish without the fear of water damage. The heavily leaking crack will never again be a problem for this Ellsworth, ME homeowner!
