Moving Foundation Wall Stopped with PowerBrace

After recently moving into this Corea, ME, home, the homeowner noticed the back wall in their basement developed a crack and started to move. The homeowner purchased this home with the intention of this being their forever home, so they didn’t want to waste time fixing the problem. The homeowner submitted a request for a free estimate online, and System Design Specialist Craig Ziegenbein worked with the homeowner to design a structural system that would stabilize the basement wall. PowerBraces were installed to permanently stabilize the wall and prevent any further movement. With PowerBraces, the bottom bracket is secured to the concrete floor, and the top bracket is anchored to the floor joist. Once installed, the PowerBraces are tightened, which generates positive pressure on the supported wall. Now that the wall is stabilized, the homeowner can enjoy their new home without having to worry about any structural issues causing them problems.

Bowing Walls in Houlton, ME

Houlton, ME homeowners were concerned about their old foundation rock walls that were bowing and crumbling, so they reached out to TC Hafford Basement Systems for help. After giving a free estimate we established a plan to install a new StableLock Wall. StableLock Wall system helps protect failing foundation walls by pouring a new concrete wall in front of the original wall. Rather than traditional lifting of the home, which is expensive, we can pour a new wall with little disruption to the homeowners.

Wet Crawl Space Transformed in North Hampton, NH

This North Hampton home had a crawl space that was less than practical. There was moisture build up & water seepage that prevented the homeowner from utilizing this space. TC Hafford was contacted and after assessing the conditions, and it was determined that a CleanSpace Vapor Barrier Encapsulation would do the trick. The CLeanSpace Liner is specifically desgined for Crawl Spaces and Basements, to prevent mositure, humidiity, and pests from penetrating the space. 

This crawl space is a lot healthier which makes this home a lot happier. Now they can utilize the already existing space!
