Before & After Photos

Living with a damp basement for some time, this Hope, ME homeowner was in the market for a solution to their problem. After a call to us at TC Hafford Basement Systems and a free estimate from our sales rep., they were ready to have us get started on a WaterGuard installation to protect their basement. When our installation crew arrived at the home, they got started on the project by excavating the existing slab to replace it with a fresh slab fitted with a Drainage Matting beneath. A WaterGuard piping system was installed around the perimeter of the new basement floor, hidden just below the surface. Once the slab dries, the WaterGuard piping will capture any moisture leaking in through the foundation in the future through small slits along the lower edge of the piping. The WaterGuard feeds directly into a TripleSafe sump system installed in the floor as well. The TripleSafe houses three pumps, including a battery-powered backup pump to keep the basement completely free of water year-round. Finally, the discharge line leaving the home was fitted with IceGuard & LawnScape pipe segments to provide further protection against ice or debris that might have otherwise blocked the line and caused problems.

With these new installations below their home, this homeowner now has the permanent waterproofing solution they were looking for. The WaterGuard & TripleSafe combination will maintain a dry basement for this homeowner for years to come!

Needing to use the basement of their property for regular meetings, this Pittsfield, ME property owner was looking for a way to keep out the moisture that would occasionally leak into the space. After being referred to us at TC Hafford Basement Systems, the property owner hired us to take care of their waterproofing needs. In order to eliminate the accumulation of moisture on the basement floor in the future, WaterGuard Piping was installed around the perimeter of the floor leading into a new TripleSafe sump system. A CleanSpace wall system was installed to cover the interior walls of the basement, creating a seal that would lock out any unwanted water. From now-on, any moisture flowing in through the foundation of this basement will be blocked by new barriers and transported to the sump for removal from the basement through the discharge line.

Now this property owner can hold their meetings without any fear of moisture or dampness interfering with the proceedings. The WaterGuard piping will keep this basement floor water-free for years into the future!

This homeowner living in Camden, ME owned an old basement with a stone foundation. Water had been entering the basement and pooling up on the floor for some time and the homeowner wanted to have something done about it. After calling us at TC Hafford Basement Systems, our crew was able to completely waterproof their basement. A fresh slab of concrete was poured to replace the old slab, with WaterGuard piping buried just beneath the surface of the new floor. The WaterGuard pipes capture any leaking moisture and guide it out of the home through the newly installed TripleSafe sump pump. Finally, to seal any leaks that might enter through the walls and to brighten up the space, a CleanSpace wall system was utilized to cover the walls of the basement.

With their now-waterproofed floor and CleanSpace liner, this homeowner can now make use of their basement without that lingering fear of water damage. The WaterGuard piping will keep this basement water-free for years to come!

Owning a basement without much for waterproofing, this Saint Albans, ME homeowner was tired of finding inches of standing water in their basement. After a quick Google search and a phone call to our office at TC Hafford Basement Systems, this homeowner was set up with a free estimate where they were given details about their options. Once we got the green light to begin work from the homeowner, our crew began by excavating the perimeter of the basement floor. This enabled the installation of WaterGuard piping buried just below the surface of the floor. Next, a SuperSump pump was installed as well as a PVC discharge line with built-in protections on the exterior of the home in the form of an IceGuard pipe segment. Now during heavy rainfall, the WaterGuard piping will capture any leaking moisture and guide it to the sump before it has a chance to gather on the floors surface. The SuperSump will then remove the collected water from the home at a rate over 2,600 gallons per hour. The IceGuard will prevent any blockages in the line from causing a backup in the line by releasing any blocked water through the sides of the pipe.

With these waterproofing solutions in place below their home, this homeowner can now expect a dry basement floor during any rainfall that would have otherwise flooded the space.

This Swanville, ME, homeowner has had a leaky basement for over five years and has noticed it getting progressively worse over the last year. Water has been coming in and creating a small stream in front of their fireplace, which has ruined the bottom of the walls, making it impossible to finish the basement. With no plans to move anytime soon, the homeowner called TC Hafford Basement Systems for help. System Design Specialist Nima Farshid sat with the homeowner to design a waterproofing system that would address the needs of the home and exceed the homeowner's expectations. A WaterGuard Perimeter Drain was installed and connected to a SuperSump, which is attached to an exterior buried discharge line that takes the water far from the home, preventing further issues. With waterproofing protection in place, the homeowner is now free to finish their basement and finally turn it into a usable space.
