Before & After Photos

A crawlspace at a home not far from Crab Orchard, TN was in a sorry state. It was dank, musty, and lacking any system for protecting it from water, mold, and pests. One of our inspectors paid a visit to look it over and recommend a strategy. First on the list was our CleanSpace moisture barrier, a tear- and mold-resistant liner that shields spaces from damage and comes with a 25-year warranty. We also recommended our SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier to further protect the crawlspace from moisture damage. Now, this homeowner can trust that her crawlspace is safe from any and all problems related to moisture and mold!

This crawlspace in Dalton, GA was exhibiting signs of settlement, which creates problems in upper levels. These problems include sagging upper floors, stuck doors and windows, cracks, and other problems. To fix it, we installed SmartJacks, which bolster and support sagging beams. With these installed, the crawlspace is supported.

A Master Services home inspector was dispatched to evaluate a cozy log cabin in Dalton, GA, where a basement wall had suffered significant damage after a  recent heavy rainfall. At the end  of a comprehensive assessment, we deduced that the damage was likely due to external pressure.

To fortify the wall, our team employed the wall plate anchor system. This system employs the stable surrounding soil to halt further damage and strengthen the primary structure, without resorting to invasive and more costly procedures.

Water intrusion in a basement can lead to long term structural concerns, damaged finishes, and ongoing moisture issues if not properly managed. At this Decatur, TN property, groundwater pressure along the foundation was creating vulnerability to basement water entry. To permanently address the issue, Master Foundation & Crawl Space Repair installed a comprehensive interior waterproofing system designed to capture and redirect water before it can impact the living space.

Our team installed 88 feet of WaterGuard® interior drainage system along the perimeter of the basement. This engineered system is designed to sit below the slab surface, collecting groundwater at the foundation wall and floor joint. Collected water is directed to a SuperSump® Plus sump pump system, which efficiently removes water from the home. To ensure dependable discharge even during freezing conditions, we installed an IceGuard® protection system and LawnScape™ outlet, along with an extended exterior discharge line to carry water safely away from the foundation. This Decatur basement is now protected by a professionally installed system built for long term reliability and performance.

A homeowner in Cohutta, GA reached out to Master Services for help with sagging floors in their home. Upon conducting a thorough inspection, our team identified that the root cause of the problem was originating from the crawlspace. It was discovered that over time, the wooden beams in the crawlspace had deteriorated, shifted, and settled due to insufficient sizing and maintenance, resulting in structural issues.

To effectively address this problem, Master Services deployed our trusted Smart Jacks system. These specialized jacks are designed to provide reliable support for sagging floors, offering a durable and long-lasting solution to problems caused by weakened crawlspace beams. One of the advantages of the Smart Jacks system is its flexibility in installation, even in confined spaces where access may be limited, making it a practical choice for homes with space constraints.
