Before & After Photos

When one of the walls in their basement began to bow and crack, this Fayette, ME homeowner called us at TC Hafford Basement Systems to solve the problem before it got worse! We set them up with a free estimate where our sales representative was able to explain to the homeowner, in detail, just how we could seal these cracks and prevent more cracks from forming in the future. Once our installation crew arrived at the home, they got started on sealing the cracks right away. To install FlexiSpan seals over each crack, a primary layer of sealant was first applied within the cracks. A thin foam pad was laid along the cracks over the first layer of sealant. To finish the seal, a second layer of sealant was applied over the top of the foam core, creating FlexiSpan seals covering each crack. These seals benefit from the foam core by being able to contort to any slight changes in the wall, maintaining their water-tight seal. Next, to prevent future bowing of the wall, PowerBrace beams were attached to the floor and spaced out along the problem-wall. These beams were then tightened against the wall using their adjustable fixtures anchored to the joists above the basement.

With the cracks sealed and their wall locked back to its original position, this homeowner will no longer need to worry about any moisture or structural problems developing in their basement. The FlexiSpan seals & PowerBrace supports will protect this basement for years into the future!

The homeowner was concerned by the consistent build-up of water around their furnace and other areas of their basement. They wished to have a dry basement all the time, so with the help of System Design Specialist, Daryl Quinn and a TC Hafford production team, their problem has been permanently fixed.

This basement belongs to a 200 year old home in New Sharon, Maine. The homeowners had water intrusion from the dirt floor and the old stone walls. We gave the basement a complete makeover, with new concrete flooring, WaterGuard perimeter drainage system, CleanSpace Walls, and a TripleSafe sump pump. CleanSpace Wall system is a vapor barrier that attaches to the walls to seal out moisture and direct it behind the liner down to the WaterGuard drainage. WaterGuard connects to the new TripleSafe to channel water to the pump to be removed from the home. 

Homeowners in Monmouth, ME needed help with their damp basement. The area had dirt floors and moisture issues, causing frustration for the owners. We poured a new slab floor to update the dirt floors, as well as installed WaterGuard and a SuperSump pump system. WaterGuard is a perimeter drainage system built into the new slab that channels any water directly to the SuperSump pump to be removed from the basement. The owners now have a dry, usable space they no longer have to worry about.

Our Anson, ME homeowner called TC Hafford Basement Systems for a free estimate on repairing their leaky basement. They had a horizontal crack in their wall and it was allowing water in. Our System Design Specialist Alan Noyes evaluated the homeowner's needs and prepared a plan to remedy the problem. We installed the CleanSpace Wall System, a SuperSump, as well as WaterGuard.

Waterproofing the basement:

WaterGuard is installed around the perimeter of the basement to channel any water to a SuperSump Plus. CleanSpace Wall System is installed and connected to the WaterGuard, ensuring no water can seep through any cracks and end up on the new slab. We also installed a SuperSump Plus which pumps water out of the basement through an Exterior Buried Discharge line and takes the water far away from the home. The whole system is protected against ice buildup during winter with the installation of IceGuard on the Discharge line. The work was completed by foreman Tyler L. and team.
