Before & After Photos

We helped Lewiston, Maine homeowners fix their leaking basement. Water was coming in through the walls with every rain storm, sometimes causing as much as 4" of water in the basement. To address the walls, we installed CleanSpace Wall System, a vapor barrier that seals moisture out of the basement and directs it behind the liner to our WaterGuard drainage system. WaterGuard is installed around the perimeter of the basement to collect water and in turn funnels it to the TripleSafe sump pump. The TripleSafe sump pump removes water from the home through an exterior buried discharge line. We also poured a new slab floor to prevent water seeping in. Finally, we installed a SaniDry Sedona high efficiency air system that controls the humidity in the space, as well as filters out allergens. 

Since moving in, this Cumberland Foreside, ME, homeowner has had issues with puddles in their basement. Wanting to keep the puddles outside, they called TC Hafford Basement Systems to book a free estimate. System Design Specialist Jordan Tarbox met with the homeowner to discuss their goals and design a waterproofing system that would protect the health of the home.

To keep puddles from forming, WaterGuard was installed around the problem areas to catch water and channel it to a SuperSump Plus. The SuperSump Plus will take the water from WaterGuard and any groundwater and push it through an exterior Buried Discharge Line. IceGuard is installed on the Discharge Line, ensuring the system will work year-round without the concern of ice building up and blocking the system.

The homeowner is now able to live worry-free, knowing TC Hafford Basement Systems has solved their water problems and offers annual maintenance to keep the basement dry for the life of the home.

A homeowner from Cumberland Foreside, ME reached out to TC Hafford Basement Systems for help with their humidity and moisture issues. They were experiencing moisture issues up into their home as well as in the basement. System Design Specialist Mike P. met with the homeowner for a free estimate to address their concerns.

We installed a new slab, slab WaterGuard, drainage matting, a TripleSafe sump pump, and a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier. Slab WaterGuard was installed around the perimeter and connected to a new TripleSafe Sump Pump. 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 that is protected against ice buildup with IceGuard. Drainage Matting was installed to create an inorganic barrier that would channel water to the sump and protect the new slab. 

Finishing out the full waterproofing system was the installation of a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier. The SaniDry Sedona drains directly to the TripleSafe, which allows the basement to be kept at a safe humidity level all of the time without the homeowner having to empty a bucket of water to keep it running.

For several years, these homeowners have been dealing with a moldy, messy basement. In order to use the basement more efficiently, and resell the house easily in the future, they decided to call TC Hafford. Our team of professionals installed a waterproofing system to prevent future leaks, poured a brand new concrete floor, and installed our CleanSpace crawl space encapsulation system. A SaniDry Sedona will keep the humidity low to prevent future growth of mold as well. 

We replaced this customers faulty sump system with our TripleSafe Sump Pump to provide 3 levels of protection against water intrusion.
