Before & After Photos

With a musty, dirt floor crawlspace below their home, this York, ME homeowner wanted to make use of the space for storage. They called us at TC Hafford and our crew was able to provide the barrier they were searching for. To keep out moisture and debris to allow for safe storage, a CleanSpace liner was used to encapsulate the interior of the crawlspace after a Drainage Matting was laid across the floor. This will form a vapor barrier capable of keeping moisture out of the crawlspace interior while enabling any trapped moisture to drain back through the ground below. Next, Spray Foam was used to fill in gaps between the joists above the crawlspace. This will provide better insulation for the home and keep any temperature control within the home efficient.

Now that their crawlspace has been sealed off from the elements, this homeowner can make use of the space for storage without needing to worry about their property sustaining any long-term damage.

Homeowners from York, ME contacted TC Hafford Basement Systems for help with their damp crawlspace. They were interested in installing a vapor barrier. System Design Specialist Ron B. helped the homeowners come up with the best plan to prevent any future moisture issues.

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 keeps cold air out during the winter, makes the space more comfortable, and saving the homeowner money on their energy bill.

TC Hafford Basement Systems helped homeowners in York, ME with their damp, dirt floor crawl space. They knew moisture could cause mold, or wood rot on their support beams and floor joists. We used our two-step encapsulation system to protect the crawl space. First we install drainage matting, which helps control the ground water. Then we add our CleanSpace liner, a vapor barrier that seals out moisture. CleanSpace is made with an inorganic material that does not allow mold to grow. The homeowners have a fresh, clean crawl space that will protect their home and major systems for years to come!

Homeowners in York, Maine contacted TC Hafford Basement Systems for help with their crawl space. The crawl space was damp with dirt floors, and the owners were also experiencing sagging floors above the crawl space, which is an indicator that moisture is causing the support beams to fail. We encapsulated the crawl space with our two-step process that involves a layer of drainage matting as well as our CleanSpace vapor barrier liner. Spray Foam insulation was installed along the rim joists to seal the encapsulation and provide improved energy efficiency. Not pictured, we installed 6 SmartJacks which are zinc coated steel posts to immediately lift and level the floors above. SmartJacks will never rust or rot, providing unparalleled support for the home.

Kennebunk, ME homeowners reached out to TC Hafford Basement Systems when they realized some of the brick supports in their crawl space were crumbling. The home was built in the 1850's and needed help stabilizing the area. We protected the crawl space from water by encapsulating it with CleanSpace and drainage matting. We also installed a SmartSump pump to remove any moisture out of the crawl space. SmartJacks were added to stabilize the crawlspace in the event that the original brick support columns continued to fail. The home is now safe and secure, and dry to boot!
