Before & After Photos

In the past four years, this Scarborough, ME, homeowner has had to worry about basement flooding and appliances getting wet. During heavy rains, the sump pump would often fail, leading to up to two inches of water, making it unsafe for the homeowner to use the basement for storage. After calling TC Hafford Basement Systems, System Design Specialist Jordan Tarbox met with the homeowner. Following a thorough review of the basement, he worked with the homeowner to design a waterproofing system to protect the home and prevent water damage.

A total of 81 feet of WaterGuard was installed around the perimeter of the basement, with four WaterGuard Ports for easy cleaning. A TripleSafe Sump Pump System to pump the water outside of the home through a buried discharge line. IceGuard was also installed on the discharge line to prevent ice buildup, ensuring the system remains optimized, even during harsh winters.

This Scarborough, ME building has had water issues for years. With as much as two inches of standing water, this basement stayed on the wet side. After deciding that it was time to address the issue and protect the health of the building, the property owners reached out to TC Hafford Basement Systems for help. System Design Specialist Jordan Tarbox met with the owner at the property and worked with them to design a system specifically for this basement. The best course of action would be a brand-new slab with a waterproofing system.

First, to create an inorganic barrier between the new slab and the earth, Drainage Matting is laid down, preventing outside elements from touching the slab. WaterGuard is installed around the perimeter of the basement to channel any water to a TripleSafe Sump Pump that will take water out of the basement and push it through an exterior Buried Discharge Line. CleanSpace Wall System is installed and connected to the WaterGuard, ensuring no water can seep through any cracks and end up on the new slab. To prevent humidity from being an issue, a SaniDry Sedona is installed in the basement to keep humidity at a safe level.

The new slab is ready to be poured, and the basement will now be a usable space without concern of damaging any stored items, and the building is protected from water damage and mold.

This homeowner has lived at this Scarborough, ME, property for over six years but recently developed a problem that could not go unfixed. When it rains or during snowmelting, their open sump hole would allow water to come in and cover part of their basement floor. Not willing to risk their belongings being damaged or risk mold growth due to the water in their basement, they scheduled a free estimate with TC Hafford Basement System, and System Design Specialist Nicholas Ciciarelli met with them. Together, Nick and the homeowner worked together to design a waterproofing system that would meet the needs of the basement and protect the health of the home. The old sump needed to be removed so the hole could be dug out to make room for the new TripleSafe Sump Pump with Battery Backup. Once the TripleSafe is installed, it then gets connected to an Exterior Buried Discharge line that takes the water far away from the home. To ensure the system runs year-round without the risk of ice buildup, IceGuard is installed on the Discharge line to protect the system, keeping the system running at 100%.

We received a call from a homeowner in New Gloucester, ME and System Design Specialist Tom Rich went out to meet with the homeowner for a free estimate. In order to fully protect the basement, Tom put together a solution using WaterGuard perimeter drain and a TripleSafe Sump Pump. Now the homeowner can rest easy knowing that water will no longer be an issue!
