Master Services recently responded to a homeowner in Appalachia, VA, who was worried about large cracks forming in the exterior brick walls of their house. Concerned about the safety and structural integrity of their home, they contacted us for help. Our home inspector quickly diagnosed the issue as soil settling, a common problem in the region.
After providing a free estimate and scheduling the project, our production crew got to work. They dug a small trench around the building and installed several helical piers. These piers connect the concrete footing to stable ground through steel brackets, ensuring a secure foundation. The piers' unique design grips the clay-rich soil effectively, allowing us to close the cracks and restore the home’s stability.
Thanks to this solution, the homeowner now has peace of mind, knowing their house is structurally sound and protected from further damage.
The team visited a home in Big Stone Gap, VA that had a moisture problem in the crawlspace. When moisture takes over below-grade spaces, it sets off a chain reaction of issues. Moisture creates mold and mildew, which creates odors that attract pests. As pests die, more are attracted. Moisture also creates rot which eats away at vulnerable areas. To protect this crawlspace, Master Services installed our CleanSpace liner, which protects against all of these threats!
A homeowner in Big Stone Gap, VA was chagrined to notice water intrusion in his finished basement. He wanted an effective waterproofing strategy as soon as possible to avert mold, mildew, rot, and structural damage.

We also installed our CleanSpace wall vapor barrier to protect the walls from water damage.
In Stone Gap, VA, we visited a homeowner who wanted to improve the quality of her crawlspace. Upon investigation, we found a heavily contaminated space filled with mold and debris.

We received a request from a homeowner in Stone Gap, VA to enhance the value of their residence in the real estate market, beginning with their crawlspace. Since its construction, the area had not been suitably sealed or waterproofed, making it vulnerable to water infiltration, especially during rainfall. Following a comprehensive assessment, our home inspector recommended our CleanSpace moisture barrier solution to ensure that the crawlspace remains dry, hygienic, and provides a secure environment to store additional items.
