Before & After Photos

Jackman, ME homeowners who recently purchased their home contacted TC Hafford Basement Systems for help with encapsulating their crawlspace, as well as support for the sagging floors above. To waterproof the space, we installed CleanSpace with drainage matting, as well as SprayFoam insulation. Drainage Matting is a durable barrier with dimples to help channel water and elevate the CleanSpace, keeping it clean. CleanSpace is a durable, inorganic vapor barrier that gets attached to the walls and seals up the crawl space, keeping moisture out. SprayFoam creates an air and water tight seal, easily getting into nooks and crannies that traditional fiberglass insulation can't do as well. SmartJacks were installed to support the sagging floors. SmartJacks are a galvanized steel post system that custom fit to a support beam or floor joist to lift sagging floors.

This homeowner living in Strong, ME had been experiencing a musty smell propagating their home from their damp crawlspace. Without any form of waterproofing, the crawlspace was open to the elements. Looking for ways to remedy this issue, they contacted us at TC Hafford Basement Systems, and we set them up with a free estimate. After hearing what their options were, they hired us to solve their moisture problem and our crew was dispatched to the home to get started. In order to keep outside moisture from building up in the crawlspace in the future, a vapor barrier would be needed. This began with Drainage Matting being laid across the dirt floor of the crawlspace. Next, a CleanSpace liner was used to encapsulate the interior of the space, sealing it off from the outside moisture. Now when water leaks in through the earth, the CleanSpace liner will block its entry into the crawlspace while the Drainage Matting provides channels for the water to travel toward where it can most easily escape back into the ground.

With a proper vapor barrier to hold back moisture, this homeowner should notice their moisture problem dissipate very soon. The CleanSpace liner will keep this crawlspace interior water-free for years to come!

Portland, ME homeowners contacted TC Hafford Basement Systems for a free estimate to waterproof their basement. They were dealing with continual flooding issues and were tired of having to clean up a wet mess. System Design Specialist Stephen C. helped them come up with the best plan to address their water woes.

We installed CleanSpace Wall System which acts as a vapor barrier to keep moisture out. The CleanSpace connects to WaterGuard to help channel any water to the SuperSump Plus system. The SuperSump removes water from the basement through an exterior buried discharge line away from the home. 

Portland, ME homeowners met with System Design Specialist Louis D. from TC Hafford Basement Systems for help with their crawlspace. They wanted to install a vapor barrier to address their moisture issues. Our team removed all of the old plastic and debris from the crawlspace, as well as the old, damp fiberglass insulation. We installed CleanSpace with drainage matting, an inorganic vapor barrier that attaches to the walls to seal the crawlspace. Our SprayFoam Specialist Travis L. also installed SprayFoam along the rim joists and top of the walls, providing an added air and moisture seal.

Andrew and his crew did a great job encapsulating this Crawl Space in Portland, ME. Now the homeowner has plenty of storage area that will be protected against  outside elements.
