With a dirt-floor crawlspace below their home, this Winter Harbor, ME homeowner had been experiencing moisture leaking through their floor into their home. To put an end to this leakage, they called us at TC Hafford Basement Systems, and we got to work providing a proper barrier to keep the moisture at bay. A moisture barrier consisting of a Drainage Matting covered by a CleanSpace liner encapsulation was installed in the crawlspace to prevent outside water from entering the interior of the space. Next, a SaniDry Sedona Dehumidifier and Condensate Pump were put in place atop the new barrier to collect and remove any moisture lingering in the atmosphere of the crawlspace.
With the new CleanSpace barrier and SaniDry installed properly, this crawlspace and home will remain dry and healthy for years to come!
Looking to keep moisture from the ground out of the crawlspace below their home, this homeowner living in Winter Harbor, ME contacted our team at TC Hafford Basement Systems. Once they received their free estimate, they were ready to have us get started on the job right away. To keep out any and all moisture, a vapor barrier needed to be put in place below this home. This began with a Drainage Matting laid across the floors surface followed by a CleanSpace liner encapsulation. These layers form a water-tight barrier to keep out moisture entering through the earth under the home, protecting the home from long-term damage caused by accumulating water.
With a proper vapor barrier protecting their crawlspace, this homeowner can rest assured no water-problems will take root below their home in the future. The CleanSpace liner will keep out any moisture that might have otherwise gathered in the crawlspace from rainfall or melting snow.
Beals, ME homeowners contacted TC Hafford Basement Systems for help with their wet and leaking basement. We poured a new slab along with slab WaterGuard around the perimeter of the basement. WaterGuard helps channel any water to the brand new TripleSafe Sump Pump. The TripleSafe features two Zoeller sumps and a battery-powered backup for protection if they lose power. The TripleSafe drains water out of the basement and through an Exterior Buried Discharge line that is protected against ice buildup with IceGuard. CleanSpace Wall System was installed to act as a vapor barrier where needed and channel any additional moisture from the walls to the WaterGuard. SprayFoam insulation was installed on the rim joists keeping cold air out during the winter, making the space more comfortable, and saving the homeowner money on their energy bill.
System Design Specialist Craig Z. met with a Vanceboro, ME homeowner to give a free estimate on repairing their leaky basement issues. We installed the BrightWall system which acts as a moisture and vapor barrier, and is easy to clean and never discolors. The BrightWall channels any moisture to WaterGuard which is installed around the perimeter of the basement, funneling water to a new TripleSafe sump pump. The TripleSafe features two Zoeller sumps and a battery-powered backup. It drains water out of the basement and through an Exterior Buried Discharge line. Lastly we added a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier which drains into the TripleSafe for easy water removal. Our homeowner has a new bright and dry basement!
Every time heavy rain comes through, this Machiasport, ME basement fills with a couple of inches of water, causing severe moisture issues for the homeowner. It’s important to take care of issues like this quickly to prevent damage that can ruin the health of the home and create an unsafe space to live in. The homeowner scheduled a free estimate with TC Hafford Basement Systems and worked with System Design Specialist Craig Ziegenbein to design an encapsulation system that would help the homeowner protect their home's health.
CleanSpace with Drainage Matting is laid on the ground to create a channel for water and an inorganic barrier between the CleanSpace and the outside elements. The CleanSpace Wall System was installed to create a full encapsulation system to keep moisture out of the space. The water has to go somewhere, so a SmartSump Sump Pump was installed to pump water through the new Exterior Buried Discharge Line. To keep the system running all year, even during the winter, IceGuard was installed on the Discharge Line to prevent ice from building up. Finally, a SaniDry Sedona was installed and connected to a condensate pump that drains to the SmartSump. Now, humidity will stay at a safe level, and the homeowner will never have to worry about emptying a bucket of water. The space is fully encapsulated, and the home’s health is protected.
