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!

This Camden, ME, basement developed a leak that kept the area constantly wet, making it unusable for the homeowner. Wanting to use their basement for storage and laundry without the risk of having their belongings damaged, the homeowner called TC Hafford Basement Systems to book a free estimate. System Design Specialist Kathryn Dolan worked with the homeowner to design a waterproofing system that would keep their basement dry all of the time.

The homeowner did not want to cut any corners in keeping their basement dry and their home healthy, so they opted for a WaterGuard system. WaterGuard perimeter drain was installed where needed to collect groundwater and channel it to the new TripleSafe Sump Pump. The TripleSafe system contains two Zoeller pumps and a battery-powered backup pump in the case of a power outage during a storm. The TripleSafe drains through an Exterior Buried Discharge line that takes the water far from the home and is protected against ice buildup with the installation of IceGuard. CleanSpace Wall System was installed to create a vapor barrier and channel any moisture to the WaterGuard.

The homeowner wanted to protect the air quality in the home, so they chose to go with the Aspen and SaniDry Sedona Bundle. The SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier was installed in their basement to keep humidity levels at a safe level. The SaniDry Sedona drains into the waterproofing system so the homeowner never has to worry about it not running when it needs to. The Aspen Air Purification system was installed in the living area of the home and covers 1500 sq ft, keeping the air clean and helping to eliminate odors. The homeowner is fully protected against water in their basement, and their home is healthier than before. Now they can use their basement however they want without the risk of their belongings being damaged.

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.
