Before & After Photos

The new homeowner of a Rumford, Maine property realized their basement leaked every time it rained. They called TC Hafford Basement Systems for a free estimate to find the cause of the leak and waterproof the basement. We installed a TripleSafe sump pump that features three pumps to handle high capacity water events, and it has a battery back up to continue working in the event of a power outage. WaterGuard perimeter drainage system was installed around the basement to collect water and channel it directly to the sump pump to be removed. We installed CleanSpace Wall System on the leaking walls. CleanSpace is an inorganic vapor barrier that seals moisture out, and also prevents mold growth. The CleanSpace was sealed with Spray Foam insulation to ensure no moisture or air would be affecting the liner.

This Steep Falls homeowner wanted to finish their basement but faced a dilemma: when it rained, water would enter the basement leading to mold growth and damaged items. With a budget in mind, the homeowner called TC Hafford Basement Systems and met with System Design Specialist Sam Crowley. Together they sat down and created a system that met the needs of the homeowner and would protect the home so they could finally finish the space. WaterGuard was installed around the perimeter of the basement that will channel the water to a TripleSafe Sump Pump. The water must go somewhere so the TripleSafe is connected to an exterior Discharge Line that is buried so it is out of sight and out of mind. Now the homeowner can remodel their basement and enjoy the space without concern.

This basement was in desperate need for improvement. It is now much better thanks to the help of CleanSpace Encapsulation and Spray Foam. The basement will be dry and much more energy efficient. 

Waking up to a smelly and damp crawl space is never fun for anyone. It’s valuable space in your home that could be utilized if not for the treacherous conditions. Although it may seem like a lost cause, don’t lose hope yet. CleanSpace with Drain Matting and a TripleSafe Sump System by TC Hafford Basement Systems will allow you to take back control of your crawl space and gain storage area necessary to declutter your home.

Homeowners in Kennebunk, ME needed help with their failing sump pump system. Their old pump was not working properly, leaving them with a wet basement to continually deal with. They were particularly interested in something with a battery back up. We installed a brand new TripleSafe sump pump system, the top of the line pump! The TripleSafe has two Zoeller pumps, as well as a battery back up pump system to help in the event of power loss.
