We helped the Orland Community Center to repair their damp, musty crawl space and keep the building protected. The before photo shows active moisture seeping into the space, along with wood rot. To seal moisture out we installed drainage matting and CleanSpace vapor barrier. A new SmartSump pump helps remove groundwater by pumping it away from the building through an exterior buried discharge line. These products work together to keep the crawl space dry, which in turn prevents the wooden structure of the building from facing any mold or rot issues.
Dedham, ME homeowner needed help with moisture control for their bunkhouse crawlspace, so they reached out to TC Hafford Basement Systems. System Design Specialist David Z. gave the owner a free estimate on the recommended repairs. Foreman Tyler L. installed CleanSpace with drainage matting. Drainage Matting is a durable barrier with dimples to help channel water and elevate the CleanSpace, keeping it clean. CleanSpace is a durable, inorganic vapor barrier that gets attached to the walls and floors and seals up the crawl space, keeping moisture out.
In Eddington, ME, a homeowner reached out to TC Hafford Basement Systems after noticing water seeping through a vertical crack in their basement wall. Concerned about preserving their home's integrity and potential water damage, they contacted us for a long-lasting solution. Our System Design Specialist diagnosed an issue with the foundation wall needing a strategic waterproofing solution. Upon assessing the situation, our team designed a comprehensive plan integrating our proprietary products: BrightWall panels, SuperSump, and WaterGuard. The installation began with attaching BrightWall panels to the masonry wall, effectively stabilizing the interior and guiding any penetrated water downward. Protecting the space not only adds a line of defense but keeps the area bright and clean. Beneath the surface, we installed the WaterGuard system—a sub-floor perimeter drainage solution expertly designed to intercept water from walls and floors. Concealed under a neat concrete layer, WaterGuard provides effective drainage without obstructing the homeowners' use of their basement. Coupled with WaterGuard, the SuperSump system adds an additional layer of assurance. This reliable sump pump solution efficiently removes water away from the foundation using a 1/3 HP Zoeller pump and includes an alert system for optimal peace of mind. As a result, our customer now enjoys a safe, dry, and usable basement.
We recently encapsulated this Lincoln, Maine crawl space. The homeowners wanted to seal up the dirt floor to keep moisture out. We installed drainage matting and CleanSpace vapor barrier. Drainage matting controls the groundwater, while the CleanSpace liner keeps moisture out and prevents mold growth.
This Lincoln, Maine crawl space was constantly damp and had dirt floors that the owners had tried to cover with plastic but it was not fully sealed up. The homeowners contacted us for help encapsulating the space properly. We installed drainage matting and CleanSpace vapor barrier which work together to seal out water and give the crawl space a fresh, clean appearance. Spray Foam insulation was installed on the walls and rim joists, not only improving the energy efficiency, but acting as an added vapor barrier since Spray Foam is water resistant. Moisture will no longer seep up from the dirt floors, keeping this home dry and protected!
