Bangor, Maine Sump Pump Installation

Homeowners in Bangor, Maine had installed their own sump pump years ago and realized over time that they wanted a more professional system installed. We installed the SuperSump pump system, which has a 1/3 horsepower cast iron Zoeller sump pump that can handle over 2,200 gallons of water per hour. The new SuperSump system also has a lid, and is concreted in, so the owners no longer have an open sump pit. 

Replacing Old Sump Pump in Bangor, Maine

A homeowner in Bangor, Maine contacted us for help because their old sump pump was making strange sounds and running constantly. We replaced their old pump with a SuperSump pump system. The SuperSump can handle over 2,200 gallons of water per hour, utilizing its 1/3 horsepower Zoeller pump. Our homeowner now has an updated system that will only run as needed, minimizing noise.

1880's Maine Home with a Failing Foundation

This Bangor, ME, homeowner loved their home that was built in the 1880’s but knew that they would have to fix the foundation as soon as they purchased the home. Over time, the foundation began shifting and falling in. Worried about their home and the safety of their family, the homeowner called TC Hafford Basement Systems for a free estimate. System Design Specialist Craig Ziegenbein worked with the homeowner to design a StableLock Wall System that would fix their foundation without the need of lifting their home.

The standard process to fully repair a failing foundation would be lifting the home while a new foundation can be installed. Using modern concrete forming and shoring methods, StableLock is able to fill in the voids of the existing foundation and stabilize it without the need for the family to ever leave their home. StableLock is more affordable and leaves the homeowner with a fresh, smooth wall with all of the best qualities of a new foundation.

Water Problems Getting Worse in Bangor, ME

Bangor, ME homeowners contacted TC Hafford Basement Systems for help with their wet basement. They found their water issues were continuing to get worse and worse over time and wanted to put an end to dealing with frustrating water clean up. We installed WaterGuard around the perimeter of the basement, a drainage system that channels water directly to the brand new TripleSafe sump pump. The TripleSafe system features two Zoeller pumps and a battery back up to protect against power loss. Water is removed away from the home through the TripleSafe and out an exterior buried discharge line. The discharge line is equipped with IceGuard to prevent freezing and back up in the winter months.

The Dangers of Water In Your Basement

This Castine, ME home was recently purchased, and the new homeowners wanted to address the laundry list of issues that reside in the basement. Water damage can be found throughout the basement, and with a goal of remodeling the home, the new homeowner knew it was important to nip these issues in the bud.

System Design Specialist Mark Smith drove out to meet the homeowner with the goal of designing a system that would fix the issues created by water intrusion and protect the health of the home. With water coming into the basement through the walls and floor, the best course of action was to install WaterGuard Perimeter Drain.

First, Drainage Matting is laid down because a new slab is going to be poured. Drainage Matting creates an inorganic barrier to protect the slab. WaterGuard Perimeter Drain is placed down and connected to a TripleSafe Sump Pump system. SmartJacks were installed to replace 5 rusted out lally columns to ensure the structural integrity of the home and keep the homeowners safe. The new slab is poured, and a SaniDry Sedona is installed in the basement to maintain optimal humidity levels in the basement. CleanSpace Wall System is installed, and now the homeowner can remodel their home knowing their basement is protected and their home is healthy.
