Before & After Photos

With a massive hole in their foundation, this Berwick, ME, homeowner was worried about their foundation collapsing. Not willing to risk this happening, the homeowner scheduled a free estimate with TC Hafford Basement Systems after finding us online. System Design Specialist Rick Russell met with the homeowner and worked with them to design a system that would solve their foundation troubles.

In situations where the foundation is failing like this, the home would typically need to be lifted and a new foundation would be poured, but not with StableLock Wall System. StableLock was created to be a permanent fix for failing foundations, and the homeowner never has to leave the house. StableLock was created to meet the demand of failing rock foundations in Maine. StableLock uses modern shoring methods to fill the voids in the existing wall and stabilize it. The homeowner is no longer worried about their foundation failing, and they saved money all while protecting their home from any future damage that comes along with a bad foundation.

Greenland, NH homeowners were looking for help replacing their old, rusted bulkhead doors. We installed a set of new doors that looked more appealing from the exterior, and also closed flush to prevent leaking. 

A local business discovered they had a water problem hiding in their basement wall and wanted to repair it ASAP. We installed CleanSpace Wall System, a vapor barrier, to seal out moisture. WaterGuard perimeter drainage was added and connected to the sump pump we had previously installed. A SaniDry Sedona high efficiency air system was also installed to maintain a healthy humidity level to keep the basement dry.

When the 55-year-old drain in their basement clogged up and would not function anymore, this Bridgton, ME homeowner called us at TC Hafford Basement Systems. After speaking with our sales representative and reviewing their options during a free estimate, they gave us the green light to begin work on resolving their sump problem. When our installation crew arrived at the home, they began work on the basement by excavating a shallow trench into the perimeter of the basement floor. This allowed enough room for WaterGuard piping to be laid surrounding the basement. Buried beneath a fresh layer of concrete, the WaterGuard pipes within the floor will capture any moisture leaking into the basement through the pores in the concrete in the future. The water is then guided through the piping to the sump where we installed a SuperSump pump. This new pump is capable of removing over 2,600 gallons of water from the home every hour. The water is pumped outside the home through a PVC discharge line where it passes through IceGuard & LawnScape sections before being released onto the lawn. These two additional pipe sections provide protection against blockages in the line and debris that might cause future clogs.

With a revamped waterproofing system in place, this homeowner’s wet basement problem is now a thing of the past. The WaterGuard & SuperSump combination will ensure this basement remains dry for years to come!

Concerned about mold growth and the resale value of their home, this Bridgton, Maine, homeowner wanted to get ahead of any problems caused by water and called TC Hafford Basement Systems for help. System Design Specialist Sam Crowley met with the homeowner and discussed their concerns, with the goal of creating a waterproofing system specifically designed for this home. WaterGuard Perimeter Drain was installed around the basement, with TrenchDrain connected to the TripleSafe Sump Pump system. The TripleSafe Sump will pump the water through an Exterior Discharge line that will take the water far from the home, where it can't be a problem.
