CleanSpace Vapor Barrier Keeps Litchfield, ME Basement Moisture-Free

Tired of living with a damp and dirty basement floor, this homeowner decided it was time they covered it up. After consulting with our team, the homeowner was greeted by our foreman Josh Bridge. Josh then laid a CleanSpace liner across the floor of the space, keeping out moisture and providing a much more appealing surface for the homeowner.

New Vapor Barrier Eliminates Musty Smell from Strong, ME Home

This homeowner living in Strong, ME had been experiencing a musty smell propagating their home from their damp crawlspace. Without any form of waterproofing, the crawlspace was open to the elements. Looking for ways to remedy this issue, they contacted us at TC Hafford Basement Systems, and we set them up with a free estimate. After hearing what their options were, they hired us to solve their moisture problem and our crew was dispatched to the home to get started. In order to keep outside moisture from building up in the crawlspace in the future, a vapor barrier would be needed. This began with Drainage Matting being laid across the dirt floor of the crawlspace. Next, a CleanSpace liner was used to encapsulate the interior of the space, sealing it off from the outside moisture. Now when water leaks in through the earth, the CleanSpace liner will block its entry into the crawlspace while the Drainage Matting provides channels for the water to travel toward where it can most easily escape back into the ground.

With a proper vapor barrier to hold back moisture, this homeowner should notice their moisture problem dissipate very soon. The CleanSpace liner will keep this crawlspace interior water-free for years to come!

Farmington, ME, Crawl Space Encapsulation.

When a homeowner in Farmington, Maine, reached out to TC Hafford Basement Systems, their crawl space was in desperate need of attention. Standing only about four feet high, the area had a dirt floor and excessive moisture, creating an uncomfortable and potentially damaging environment for the home. The homeowner was concerned about the long-term effects of the damp conditions and wanted an estimate for encapsulation.

 

 

After assessing the situation, our team determined that the best course of action would be to install a CleanSpace liner along with drainage matting to effectively control moisture. We also recommended a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier to maintain optimal humidity levels, along with spray foam insulation for added protection. The transformation was dramatic, turning the wet and unusable crawl space into a dry, clean, and energy-efficient area. The homeowner was extremely satisfied with the quality of work and the lasting benefits to their home.

Transforming a Dirt Crawl Space in Southport, ME

The space was prone to moisture issues, which could lead to problems like mold, poor air quality, and structural damage if left unaddressed. They knew it was time to take action. After assessing the situation, TC Hafford Basement Systems recommended installing the CleanSpace liner, drainage matting, and a SmartDrain. This system would effectively block moisture from entering while allowing any water to drain out safely.

 

 

The transformation was remarkable. What was once a vulnerable, exposed dirt crawl space is now fully encapsulated and protected from moisture. The homeowner was thrilled to have a dry, secure area under their home that will protect their property for years to come.

Damp Crawl Space Causing Problems in Southport, ME

This Southport, ME, crawl space was open to the elements and stayed damp, causing issues and leading to problems such as mold. The homeowner needed help, so they called TC Hafford Basement Systems for a free estimate, and System Design Specialist Kathryn Dolan met with the homeowner. Together, Kathryn and the homeowner designed a crawl space encapsulation system that would protect the home and prevent water from being an issue in the future.

Ground water was an issue for this crawl space, so a TripleCrawl Sump Pump system was installed to handle the water and pump it out of the home through the new Exterior Buried Discharge line. The Discharge line takes the water far away from the home and is protected against ice buildup with IceGuard. Mold has been an issue, so taking care of the moisture problem in the crawl space was the next step. CleanSpace with Drainage Matting was installed to encapsulate the area and keep moisture out. Drainage Matting is constructed with a dimpled design that channels water to the TripleCrawl and elevates the CleanSpace to keep it clean and protect it. CleanSpace is a durable, inorganic vapor barrier that was attached to the walls, sealing the area and brightening the space, making it perfect for storage. SmartDrain and Perforated Pipe were installed to channel water to the TripleCrawl Sump Pump. To finish encapsulating the crawl space and protect the home, SprayFoam was installed to insulate the area, and a SaniDry Sedona was installed to keep the humidity at a safe level. The SaniDry Sedona is connected to a Condensate Pump and drains to the TripleCrawl so the homeowner never has to be worried about emptying a bucket of water, and the system will continue to run without needing to be supervised or checked up on.

The homeowner is now able to regain control over their home and can live in the space without the concern of the mold or moisture effecting the health of their family.
