This homeowner in Sargentville, ME, faced a common issue with their newly purchased home: a wet basement with dirt floors. Moisture problems were causing concern for the home structure and air quality. Our team addressed this by installing a TripleSafe Sump Pump, SaniDry Sedona, WaterGuard, and CleanSpace products, as well as SprayFoam to insulate the area. As you can see in the after photo, these solutions provided a clean, dry basement environment. With our expertise, we ensured lasting protection against water infiltration and improved overall home health.
This Stillwater, ME basement got the complete waterproofing treatment! Before TC Hafford Basement Systems came in, the basement had cracked concrete floors, fieldstone walls that leaked, and no sump pump or dehumidifier. We poured a brand new slab floor complete with slab WaterGuard, a perimeter drainage system. WaterGuard funnels water directly to the new TripleSafe Sump Pump. The TripleSafe has two Zoeller pumps, as well as a battery back up, for full protection against pump failure and power loss. We also added a SaniDry Sedona high efficiency air purifier to filter out dust and mold spores, and maintain a consistent humidity in the space. Water from the SaniDry discharges directly into the TripleSafe, and is then removed far from the home through an exterior buried discharge line.
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.
