A customer in Chuckey, TN had only been in the home for six months, but already noticed a problem in her basement. She detected a musty smell and noticed that water worked its way inside the area, usually after substantial rains. She wanted to use the basement as a storage area, but first needed it fortified against water. Our team installed several systems, including our TripleSafe sump pump, SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier, and CleanSpace Wall vapor barrier.
A homeowner near Limestone, TN reached out to the Master Services team about his moist, dank, unencapsulated crawlspace. The area had an encapsulation system, but it was old, torn, and providing little protection from water. The crawlspace was a mess! Our team got to work encapsulating it with our durable CleanSpace moisture barrier system, which deters mold, mildew, water, pests, and rot. We also installed our SilverGlo wall panel insulation system, which helps retain heat and improve energy savings.
In Limestone, TN, a spacious basement faced a common problem: sagging support beams and floor joists. Without proper intervention, the issue would persist and worsen over time. To address this, our team installed the reliable and robust SmartJacks system. These components were meticulously assembled and connected to the girder, offering essential support to the weakened elements. The SmartJacks can be easily tightened for additional support if necessary. Remarkably, this solution caused minimal disruption to the existing cement floor, thanks to our pre-cast concrete base.
The Master Services installation team successfully addressed a bowed retaining wall in Limestone, TN, using several Wall Plate Anchors. The large horizontal crack on the exterior wall was caused by prolonged exposure to excessive moisture due to hydrostatic pressure from the nearby terrain.
By installing Wall Plate Anchors, the team effectively stabilized the wall by securely connecting it to the stable soil nearby, providing crucial reinforcement to the entire structure of the house. This procedure was carried out efficiently, causing minimal disruption to both the interior and exterior of the property.
Master Services visited a church in Coeburn, VA that had a basement that flooded during heavy rains. To fix the problem, we installed several waterproofing measures, including a ThermalDry wall system to keep moisture from collecting on the walls and creating mold, mildew, and damage.
