Before & After Photos

After living with a wet basement for some time, this Dover, NH homeowner thought it was time they did something about it. They called us at TC Hafford Basement Systems, and we set them up with a free estimate as soon as possible. After they spoke with our sales representative, they hired us to get started right away! Once our installation crew made it out to the home, they got started by installing a WaterGuard piping system surrounding the basement floor, buried below the concrete. These pipes will capture moisture as it leaks through the pores in the foundation, guiding it to the SuperSump pump also installed in the basement floor. Once in the sump, the water will be pumped out of the home through a PVC discharge line protected by both an IceGuard pipe segment and LawnScape discharge port outside the home. Finally, a CleanSpace liner was utilized to cover the walls of the basement with a waterproof barrier. This will both brighten up the space as well as channel any moisture down into the WaterGuard below for removal.

With a properly waterproofed basement, this homeowner can now make use of their basement without fearing water damage to their property. The CleanSpace liner & WaterGuard piping will keep water from collecting on this basement floor for years into the future!

This Dover, NH, homeowner had an issue: whenever it would rain, a stream would form in their basement that would lead to their old sump pump. Worried about mold and damage, the homeowner booked a free estimate with TC Hafford Basement Systems. System Design Specialist Rick Russell drove out and met with the homeowner to work with them on creating a waterproofing system that would be specific to their home.

WaterGuard Perimeter Drain was installed in the necessary areas of the home where water was coming in and was connected to a SuperSump Sump Pump system. WaterGuard is buried under the slab floor and channels water to a sump pump. WaterGuard features ports that allow for easy cleaning and service if necessary. The SuperSump takes the water and pushes it out of the basement through a Buried Discharge Line that gets the water away from the home where it can’t cause anymore issues. New England can get cold during the winter, so IceGuard was installed on the Discharge line to prevent ice buildup, keeping the waterproofing system working all year-round without troubles. Now the homeowner has a dry basement, and they no longer have to worry about mold damaging their basement, and their family and home will be healthier.

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.

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.
