Before & After Photos

System Design Specialist Sam C. met with Peru, ME homeowners to assess the water damage in their basement. The owners were tired of dealing with water intrusion and having a wet mess to clean up. Due to the cracks and water intrusion, we poured a new concrete slab, with slab WaterGuard. WaterGuard captures and channels water to the TripleSafe, which features two Zoeller sumps and a battery-powered backup. The TripleSafe drains water out of the basement and through an Exterior Buried Discharge line that is protected against ice buildup with IceGuard. Next, to brighten up the interior of the basement and provide a layer covering the cold concrete walls, BrightWall panels were installed around the entire basement. BrightWall is a durable, easy to clean panel system that never discolors. Finishing out the full waterproofing system was the installation of a SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier.

Living with a wet basement, this Gorham, ME homeowner was looking for a way to keep the water at bay. After a quick Google search, they called us at TC Hafford Basement Systems, and we set them up with a free estimate from one of our sales representatives. Liking what we could offer, they hired us right away to get started on waterproofing their wet basement. As soon as our installation crew arrived at the home, they got started on the basement by excavating a shallow trench into the perimeter of the floor. This enabled them to lay WaterGuard piping down below the surface of the floor, covering it over with a fresh layer of concrete. Concealed within the floor, the WaterGuard piping will now capture any moisture leaking in through the foundation before it can reach the floors surface. This trapped water is guided directly into the SuperSump installed in the corner of the basement to remove the water from the home before it can accumulate. The water is forced out of the home through a PVC discharge line protected by an IceGuard segment just outside the home. The IceGuard is constructed with upward facing holes to allow for any water blocked by ice or debris to escape the line before backing up into the home.

With these waterproofing measures in place, this homeowner now has the permanent solution they were looking for. The WaterGuard & SuperSump combination will ensure this basement remains water-free for years to come!

Walking into your basement and stepping in a puddle is never a good sign. This Gorham, ME homeowner purchased this 1930’s home over 5 years ago and wants to make this their forever home but were nervous about water and the condition of their foundation. Wanting to tackle the issues of the basement, the homeowner called TC Hafford Basement System for a free estimate on protecting the health of their home. System Design Specialist Foster Blake met with the homeowner, and they worked together to address all concerns, including the water coming in, the foundation, and mold.

Starting from the ground up, this home needed a new slab. With the old one as cracked and broken as it was, water would come up and form puddles. Before the new slab was poured, Drainage Matting was laid, and WaterGuard Interior Basement Drain was placed around the perimeter of the basement. The WaterGuard is connected to a TripleSafe Sump Pump that takes the water and pushes it out of a discharge line, so the water will no longer be an issue. Moisture in the air is still a concern, as high humidity leads to mold growth. To combat moisture, a SaniDry Sedona was installed, maintaining optimal humidity.

The homeowner can live in their forever home without being concerned about the health of their home. It is easy to forget that if you buy a two-story home with a bad basement, then that is 1/3 of your home that cannot be utilized. The homeowner now has the ability to use their basement as they see fit and can finish it without worry.

We helped Saco, ME homeowners solve their water problems with our comprehensive waterproofing system. The homeowners indicated water was coming in through a crack in their basement wall. We installed WaterGuard, a perimeter drainage system that channels any moisture directly to the new TripleSafe sump pump system. We also added BrighWall panels on the basement walls. BrightWall gives the basement a fresh new look, is durable, and easy to clean. It's moisture resistant and helps keep the basement dry. 

Homeowners in Saco, ME needed help with their basement that has cinder block walls letting water in. To waterproof the space, we installed WaterGuard, a perimeter drainage system. WaterGuard collects water and channels it directly to the TripleSafe sump pump. The TripleSafe is the top of the line sump pump that has two Zoeller pumps, as well as a battery back up in the event of power loss. Water is pumped away from the home through an exterior buried discharge line that is protected with IceGuard so it does not freeze up in the winter. The homeowners no longer have to worry about cleaning up from a wet mess.
