Before & After Photos

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. 

Heating a home during the winter can be expensive, and if you have an open crawl space, you're virtually burning money. A crawl space without insulation leads to cold air coming in through your foundation during the winter and hot air warming your home during the summer. Looking to save money on their energy bill and protect the health of their home year-round, this York, ME, homeowner called Dr. Energy Saver by TC Hafford Basement Systems for a free estimate.

System Design Specialist Nima Farshid worked with the homeowner to test how energy-efficient their home is with a Blower Door Test. A Blower Door Test measures how much air leaks in or out of a building, helping the homeowner and Nima have a better understanding of what needs to be done to the home. Encapsulating the crawl space was the first step in the plan, so CleanSpace with Drainage Matting was laid down, creating an inorganic seal between the crawl space and the earth. Vent Covers were installed to close off vents that would otherwise let outside air flow right into the crawl space. SprayFoam was installed on the walls and rim joists to insulate the crawl space. SprayFoam is a closed-cell foam that is not only a thermal barrier but also a powerful moisture barrier since it does not absorb water.

With the crawl space encapsulated with CleanSpace and sealed with SprayFoam, the homeowner now owns a more energy-efficient home that is healthier, and they no longer have to deal with cold floors in the winter and a humid crawl space during the summer.

This Cape Neddick, ME, homeowner had been dealing with cold floors due to an uninsulated crawl space. Wanting to save money on their energy bills and make their home more energy efficient, the homeowner called TC Hafford Basement Systems for a free estimate. Dr. Energy Saver System Design Specialist Josh Hamel met with the homeowner to work with them to design an energy-saving system for their home. Closed cell SprayFoam was installed along the rim joists and on the walls to insulate the crawl space. Cold air is kept out and warm air in, keeping the homeowners floors warmer in the winter without the need to spend money keeping the heat on in their home higher than it needs to be.

A Wells, ME homeowner reached out to TC Hafford Basement Systems for help with their summer home. They wanted to insulate their pipes under the house to help save on energy bills. We were able to install Spray Foam Insulation around the pipes and rim joists to keep everything air tight and free from moisture by the ocean.

System Design Specialist Josh H. met with Wells, ME homeowners to assess their basement. The owners were tired of having a freezing basement and wanted to know their options to insulate the space. We removed their old damp insulation and installed SprayFoam insulation on the walls. SprayFoam creates an air and moisture tight seal, filling hard to get nooks and crannies. The owners can enjoy a warmer basement as well as cheaper energy bills!
