Before & After Photos

Even with a sump in their basement floor, this Durham, ME homeowner would still find standing water gathering on the floor. Tired of needing to vacuum this water out themselves, the homeowner contacted us at TC Hafford Basement Systems to see if we could provide a solution to their problem. After receiving their free estimate, this homeowner gave us the go-ahead to begin work on their basement. As soon as our installation crew arrived at the home, they got started on the basement floor by excavating the perimeter to create room for our WaterGuard piping to be laid. Buried below a fresh layer of concrete around the perimeter of the floor, these pipes will capture moisture entering the basement through the foundation. The trapped moisture will flow through the WaterGuard to the nearby SuperSump pump that was connected directly to the piping. This new pump will force the water up and out of the home through a PVC discharge line at a rate over 2,600 gallons per hour. Finally, IceGuard and LawnScape pipe segments were attached to the discharge line to provide further protection. The IceGuard section gives any water blocked by ice a path to escape the line before backing up into the home while the LawnScape end piece covers the line with a grate to keep out any debris that may cause blockages.

With the WaterGuard gathering leaking moisture and the SuperSump removing it from the home, this homeowner should no longer find their basement flooded after any rainfall!

Homeowners from New Vineyard, ME reached out to TC Hafford Basement Systems for help with their wet basement. The homeowners observed some cracking in the foundation that was allowing water to seep into their space. Our System Design Specialist Adam H. visited their basement for a free estimate on the repairs needed. 

The homeowner wanted the basement to be dry all of the time, so they did not want to cut any corners. WaterGuard was installed around the perimeter of the basement to collect and channel water. In high-traffic areas such as entrances TrenchDrain was installed and connected to the WaterGuard. The water has to go somewhere, so the homeowner chose a SuperSump for the job. The SuperSump takes the water and pumps it through an Exterior Buried Discharge line, which gets the water far away from the home. To prevent ice buildup and keep the system running at 100% during the winter months, IceGuard was installed on the Discharge line. CleanSpace Wall System was installed along the walls and attached to the WaterGuard. CleanSpace Wall System acts as a vapor barrier and channels any moisture coming in from the wall to the WaterGuard. Now our homeowners no longer have to fight their wet basement and have confidence they can use the space safely!

After a few years of living with a basement that would take on water after heavy rainfall, this Lisbon, ME homeowner finally decided to do something to put and end to it! They called us at TC Hafford Basement Systems and our crew got to work right away providing a proper barrier to keep water from flooding their basement. To collect and remove the leaking water, a WaterGuard piping system was installed within the perimeter of the basement floor. This system was connected directly to the sump, where a new SuperSump pump was installed. Finally, a Drainage Matting was installed over the surface of the basement floor. This is all then covered by a fresh slab of concrete to give the homeowner a completely waterproofed basement floor, ready to be utilized for whatever the homeowner requires.

Lisbon, ME homeowners were frustrated with water coming into their basement from leaking windows. We installed a TripleSafe Sump Pump system, WaterGuard, CleanSpace Wall System, as well as a SunHouse window well enclosure. The SunHouse window well enclosure helps prevent water from coming into the window area on the exterior of the home. CleanSpace Wall System acts as a vapor barrier to help prevent mold growth and seal moisture out. WaterGuard channels any water directly to the TripleSafe sump pump to be removed away from the home.
