Before & After Photos

Bath, Maine homeowners experienced cracking in their hardwood floors due to the floors starting to sag. To support the sagging floors we installed SmartJacks, custom fit steel posts that support and lift the home above. SmartJacks are zinc-coated so they never rust, and they can be adjusted over time as needed to continue to keep the floors level.

We helped homeowners with this Bath, Maine basement that had already had one wall collapse, and another was bowing. We installed StableLock Wall to support the home and stop the bowing wall from shifting any further, as well as SmartJacks and a new supplemental beam to provide proper support to the home and floors above. StableLock Wall is our patented foundation repair solution for bowing and shifting walls. We pour a new concrete wall with specialized bracing next to the failing wall, so there is no excavation needed. This keeps StableLock a less costly and less disruptive solution to protect your foundation walls. SmartJacks are galvanized steel beams that are custom fit to support and even lift your floors above. The galvanized coating protects the beams from rusting, and each SmartJack can support over 60,000 lbs of weight. Moisture had caused the original beam to begin to rot, so our new supplement beam and SmartJacks will keep the home properly protected.

We provided a free estimate to homeowners in Augusta, Maine that lived in a house built in the 1850's and had noticed shifting foundation walls. The owners were very concerned about the walls potentially collapsing and wanted to get it repaired ASAP. We installed StableLock Walls in two places where they had failing walls. StableLock Wall is a new concrete wall with patented bracing that keeps the home stable. We install the new StableLock Wall directly next to the failing wall, preventing further shifting or collapse. We can install StableLock without any major excavation or needing to lift the home, so it is a less costly option than traditional methods.

Buyers who were under contract to purchase a Fairfield, Maine home had an inspection completed, which revealed one of the foundation walls was cracked and settling. Debris was visibly crumbling off the wall, and cracks were scattered all across the length of the wall. We poured a StableLock Wall in front of the failing wall to provide proper support to the home. Rather than the disruption and high cost of excavating and lifting the home, we can stop a failing wall by simply pouring a new one adjacent to it. 

TC Hafford Basement Systems helped Winslow, ME homeowners with their cracked and failing foundation. We installed PowerBraces to provide immediate support to the foundation. PowerBraces can also be tightened over time to not only stop the failing wall, but straighten back to its original position. The PowerBraces are made of zinc-coated steel so they will never rust. The owners have confidence their home is structurally sound!
