Before & After Photos

Saco, Maine homeowners learned they needed more support for their floating beam from a recent home inspection. We installed a SmartJack steel post to keep the beam stabilized. SmartJacks can handle 60,000 lbs of weight each. We cut them to a custom size, and they can be tightened over time to adjust for any settlement.

We helped homeowners with their failing foundation wall, which was bowing and had shifting cinder blocks from hydrostatic pressure. We installed StableLock Wall, our patented foundation repair solution that keeps your home safely supported without needing any major excavation or jacking up the home. We pour a new concrete wall with specialized bracing adjacent to the failing wall to stabilize your home and stop any further shifting of the failing wall. Most StableLock Wall projects are completed in 2-3 days, and without any excavation. 

We helped homeowners in Mechanic Falls, Maine who had failing lally columns in their basement. The lally columns were rusting and the owners wanted to ensure the home had proper support. We installed SmartJacks, which are galvanized steel beams that can each hold 60,000 lbs of weight. We connected the SmartJacks to a new supplemental beam to help stabilize the home above. The zinc-coating on the steel protects the beams from rust so they will not have the same problem again. 

We helped homeowners in Windham, Maine who had reached out with concerns that their basement supports were rusting and going to fail. After providing a free estimate, they wanted to move forward with replacing their old lally columns with new SmartJacks. SmartJacks are galvanized steel posts that are custom fit to stabilize the home above. Each SmartJack can support 60,000 lbs, and the zinc coating on the post keeps it protected from rusting. 

Westbrook, ME homeowners had major concerns over their bowing foundation walls, so they called TC Hafford Basement Systems for help. We installed StableLock Walls to repair the failing areas. StableLock is a concrete wall that is poured in front of the failing wall to prevent further shifting, and offer proper structural support to the home. Traditional foundation repairs involve lifting the home which is invasive and costly, but with StableLock Walls we can complete the repairs with no lifting of the home.
