Before & After Photos

Homeowners in Yarmouth, Maine reached out to TC Hafford Basement Systems for help with insulating their basement. They wanted to improve their energy efficiency to have savings on their utility bills. We installed Foamax on the basement walls, a paneled insulation that not only helps keep the basement warm, but also acts as a vapor barrier. In the ceiling we used Rockwool insulation, a durable option that does not sag or get damp and moldy like traditional fiberglass insulation.

A Freeport, ME homeowner contacted TC Hafford Basement Systems for a free estimate to insulate their basement. They also wanted to learn what energy rebates were available. System Design Specialist Louis D. created a plan to keep their space protected. We installed Foamax basement wall insulation which has a foil vapor barrier on the back to protect against moisture and humidity. Foamax also helps insulate the space so the warmer air in the basement isn't escaping through the walls. The white foil on the front of the Foamax gives a nice clean finished look.

A homeowner in Mount Vernon, Maine, needed to have their house jacked up, and during this process, the insulation in their crawl space would require replacement. TC Hafford Basement Systems assessed the situation and recommended Dr. Energy Saver spray foam insulation for its superior energy efficiency and long-lasting performance. After completing the installation, the homeowner noticed an immediate difference in the comfort of their home, especially in the crawlspace. The insulation provided better coverage and protection from moisture, leaving the homeowner extremely satisfied with the results.

We recently helped homeowners in Brunswick, Maine to insulate their empty attic. Our Tru-Soft cellulose blown insulation can be easily added to immediately provide not only energy improvements, but also improved protection against mold, and fire resistance. Our Tru-Soft cellulose is environmentally friendly, made of 85% recycled paper. The cellulose fibers are treated with a fire retardant to help protect against fire damage, and also prevents mold growth.

Without air sealing an attic, hot air is still able to penetrate loose blown-in insulation, leading to higher energy bills and an uncomfortable home. This Topsham, ME, homeowner wanted to become more energy efficient, so they booked a free estimate with Dr. Energy Saver by TC Hafford Basement Systems. System Design Specialist Nima Farshid met with the homeowner and performed a Blower Door Test that showed room for improvement. Nima worked with the homeowner to design a Dr. Energy Saver system that would make their home more comfortable and energy efficient.

First the old insulation was removed, and the attic was air-sealed where needed with ZypFoam. Any areas that could leak air into the home were filled in and around the chimney. Next, TruSoft Cellulose installation was blown in to reinsulate the area. TruSoft Cellulose is an environmentally friendly product made from recycled materials that are treated for fire resistance. Unlike typical fiberglass insulation that will melt when presented with a flame, TruSoft Cellulose insulation will resist the flame and won’t ignite. Now the homeowner not only has a more energy efficient home, but a more comfortable and safer home thanks to Dr. Energy Saver by TC Hafford Basement Systems.
