Before & After Photos

High humidity in a basement will lead to mold and mildew, creating unhealthy living conditions and can potentially ruin a homeowner’s belongings. No one deserves to have their family breathing in bad air, and this Dover, NH, homeowner began to grow concerned as their old dehumidifier was not cutting it anymore. The homeowner booked a free estimate with TC Hafford Basement Systems with the goal of replacing their old dehumidifier and keeping their basement humidity at a safe level.

The homeowner opted to have a new SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier installed to keep the air dry and their family healthy. The SaniDry Sedona is capable of removing 95 pints of water from the air a day and filters mold spores, dust mite droppings, and other particles from the air. The SaniDry is more energy efficient than the average dehumidifier, costing less to run, and is set it and forget it. Unlike the typical dehumidifier that fills up a bucket that needs to be dumped regularly, the SaniDry Sedona drains to a discharge line, meaning the homeowner never needs to check on it and the basement humidity stays at a safe level all the time. The homeowner is happy again knowing their basement is protected and their family will stay healthy as mold is no longer a concern and musty odors are taken care of with their new SaniDry Sedona.

We helped homeowners in Dover, NH who were preparing to renovate their basement after experiencing water damage, and wanted to have interior drainage installed. We installed WaterGuard perimeter drainage coupled with a new TripleSafe sump pump. The leaking cinder block walls were addressed with CleanSpace Wall system, which is a vapor barrier that seals out moisture and directs it behind the liner down to the WaterGuard drainage. The TripleSafe sump has two cast iron Zoeller pumps which take the water collected from the WaterGuard and pumps it away from the home through an exterior buried discharge line.

In the before photo from our recent project in Bethel, ME, water was seeping through the floor, threatening the integrity of the finished basement. To resolve this, our team at TC Hafford Basement Systems installed the reliable BrightWall system, TripleSafe Sump Pump and WaterGuard drainage system. As you can see in the after photo, these products work together to effectively channel water away from the foundation, preventing further issues. This combination ensures the basement remains dry year-round. Homeowners can now use the space with confidence, knowing it is protected from future water damage.

Bethel, ME homeowners experienced a wet basement every time it rained, and had concerns over a crack in their foundation wall. They called TC Hafford Basement Systems for a free estimate to waterproof their basement. We first installed WaterGuard around the perimeter of the basement. WaterGuard is a drainage system that collects water and channels it directly to the TripleSafe sump pump system. The TripleSafe then pumps water away from the home out through an exterior buried discharge line. Finally, BrightWall was added to the basement walls as a vapor barrier. It is durable, easy to clean, and never discolors, giving the basement a fresh, bright appearance. 

The Bethel Town Office building had water intrusion issues, causing mold in their basement. They contacted TC Hafford Basement Systems to help waterproof the basement. We poured a brand new slab floor, complete with WaterGuard perimeter drainage system to capture any incoming water. A TripleSafe sump pump was installed and connected to the WaterGuard so any water would be channeled directly to the TripleSafe to be pumped away from the building. The TripleSafe sump pump is the top of the line pump system that has an extra pump and a battery back up to protect against pump failure and power loss. We also installed CleanSpace Wall System on the basement walls to serve as a vapor barrier, sealing moisture out and directing any water behind the CleanSpace liner directly to the WaterGuard drain.
