Before & After Photos

We transformed this Kittery, Maine crawl space that was damp and musty, into a dry and healthy space. The old dirt floors allowed moisture to seep in, causing the fiberglass insulation to be damp and sag. Moisture can also significantly damage the wooden support beams for the home over time, leading to mold or rot. We installed CleanSpace vapor barrier, which is a liner that seals out moisture and is treated to prevent mold growth. We also removed the fiberglass insulation and installed Spray Foam insulation. Spray Foam not only seals out cold air, but it is also water and mold resistant, unlike fiberglass.

Isolating a crawl space from moisture from the earth, is critical to a healthy and happy home. At this home in New Castle, NH, TC Hafford Basement Systems used multiple exclusive products to give the homeowner peace of mind and a healthy home. 

CleanSpace with drainage matting underneath is installed to keep moisture from the earth out of the crawl space and a SaniDry Sedona will work to keep the humidity in the crawl space low. Perforated pipe will direct groundwater to the SmartSump where it will push water out to a discharge line and far away from the homeowners crawl space. In the event of a power outage, the UltraSump Battery Back Up is installed to protect the space without hiccup.

Not only does the homeowner no longer have to worry about their crawl space, but now they have a usable area for storage and their home is better protected against the elements. 

Owners in New Castle, ME reached out to TC Hafford Basement Systems for help with their crawl space. The crawl space had a lot of ledge, as well as constant water intrusion issues. We installed our two-step encapsulation system, including CleanSpace vapor barrier and drainage matting. The CleanSpace liner is an inorganic material so it prevents mold growth, as well as seals out moisture. Drainage matting is installed underneath the liner to control and divert ground water. 

Lyman, Maine homeowners wanted help with their wet and leaking crawl space. We installed CleanSpace, a vapor barrier system that seals out moisture while also preventing mold growth. Spray Foam insulation was added on the walls and rim joists to create an air tight seal over all the old cinder blocks and field stones. Spray Foam insulation provides immediate energy efficiency savings. 

After experiencing dampness in their basement for some time, this Harrison, ME homeowner hired us at TC Hafford Basement Systems to solve their wet basement problem. To protect this space from moisture in the future, the existing slab was excavated from the basement to make room for a completely waterproof slab installation. With a freshly poured slab, our crew installed a Drainage Matting beneath the surface, along with a CleanSpace liner to wrap the walls of the basement. A SuperSump pump was also installed in the new floor, providing a means for any gathering moisture to be pumped out and away from the home. Now water leaking in through the walls or up from below the floor will be blocked by the new vapor barrier and redirected back out of the home through either the ground or the sump.

These basement upgrades will enable this homeowner to make use of their basement once again without the fear of water damage. The new vapor barrier will ensure their basement remains dry in the future!
