A Small Leak Leading to a Swamp

This Kittery, ME homeowner has water coming into their space, causing havoc when it rains. With no plans to move or sell the home, it was important to them to take care of the issue, so their home doesn’t turn into a swamp. The homeowner called TC Hafford Basement Systems for help and scheduled an appointment with System Design Specialist Michael Penna. During the free estimate, they worked together to design a system that would meet the needs of the home and surpass the expectations of the homeowner.

 

Wanting the space to be dry all the time, WaterGuard was laid around the perimeter and connected to a TripleSafe Sump Pump System. WaterGuard ports were installed for easy clean-out, and TrenchDrain was laid in high-traffic areas, such as the door, to catch and channel as much water as possible to the TripleSafe. Water is then pumped out of the basement through a buried discharge line and away from the home, where it won’t be a problem. Now the homeowner can relax, knowing that their space is protected and their home is healthy.

EverLast Wall Restoration in Kittery, ME

Kittery, ME homeowners reached out to TC Hafford Basement Systems for help when they found water from one room in their basement was leaking into another room. System Design Specialist John W. met with the owners to give a free estimate on waterproofing the space. 

 

We installed WaterGuard around the perimeter of the basement, which channels water to the new TripleSafe sump pump. The TripleSafe features 2 Zoeller pumps, as well as a battery back up in the event of power loss. The affected walls were replaced with EverLast Wall Restoration panels, an inorganic product that is not only resistant to water damage but also will not support the growth of any mold or mildew. Lastly, we installed a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier to help control the humidity in the basement.

Basement Awry in Rye, NH

Homeowner in Rye, NH contacted TC Hafford Basement Systems for help with their leaking basement with eroding walls. The owner worked with System Design Specialist Michael P.  to come up with a plan to solve their problems. BrightWall was installed along the wall where cracks and crumbling had previously formed to act as a vapor barrier and channel any moisture to the WaterGuard. WaterGuard was installed around the perimeter and connected to a new TripleSafe Sump Pump. The TripleSafe system, which features two Zoeller sumps and a battery-powered backup,  drains water out of the basement and through an Exterior Buried Discharge line that is protected against ice buildup with IceGuard. SprayFoam was installed at the rim joists to insulate the basement. Now the homeowner has a fresh and clean usable basement that will stay dry! 

Garage Water Issue Solved with TrenchDrain

A Rye, NH homeowner contacted TC Hafford Basement Systems for support with humidity in their basement, as well as water damage near their garage doors. System Design Specialist Mike P. met with the owner for a free estimate to solve their water issues.

 

In the basement we installed a SaniDry Sedona to take care of their high humidity. In the garage we installed TrenchDrain and a SuperSump with UltraSump battery back up. The TrenchDrain channels water directly to the SuperSump, which then pumps the water through an Exterior Buried Discharge line that takes it far from the home. The inclusion of the UltraSump Battery Back-Up is important to keep water out of the basement even during power outages, which tend to be very common in New England during storms.

Stable Floors and a Dry Basement

This Lyman, ME homeowner has lived in their home for over 28 years and after that amount of time you get to know the home and it’s problems pretty well. The homeowner knew that they had moisture issues in their basement and didn’t want the issue to go unchecked too much longer. Looking to live in a healthy and safe home, the homeowner called TC Hafford Basement Systems and booked a free estimate.

 

System Design Specialist Ron Bernard worked with the homeowner to design a waterproofing system for their home that would protect the health of the home and exceed the expectations of the homeowner. Mold has caused issues for the homeowner so getting the space dry was the first concern that needed to be addressed. WaterGuard was laid around the perimeter where needed and connected to a TripleSafe Sump Pump. WaterGuard captures water and channels it to the TripleSafe which is powerful enough to take large amounts of water and pump it out of the basement through a Buried Discharge Line. The Buried Discharge Line takes the water far enough from the home where it can no longer cause issues. To prevent ice buildup and ensure that the system works all year round, IceGuard was installed on the Discharge Line. In high traffic areas of the basement such as doorways, TrenchDrain was installed to capture as much water as possible and feed it to the TripleSafe Sump Pump. To finish up the waterproofing system, a SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier was installed to keep humidity at a safe level where mold wont grow and the homeowners belongings wont be damaged. The Sanidry Sedona drains to the TripleSafe so the homeowner never has to worry about emptying a bucket of water and the dehumidifier will always run as it needs to.

 

To finish the homeowner’s basement system, SmartJacks were installed where needed to support the floor above and remove any bounce that the floors had. SmartJacks can be adjusted over time to meet the changing needs of the home and more can be added in the future if needed without interrupting the current system. Now the homeowner’s basement is dry, moisture free and the floors above stable. The home is not only healthier, but with yearly service and the TC Hafford Basement Systems warranty, the homeowner can live in their home with true peace of mind.
