In Big Stone Gap, VA, Master Services recently addressed structural concerns in a commercial building. Our team installed several helical piers to counteract soil settling, a common issue in the area. Within the same day, we successfully achieved more than a 2-inch lift and closed the concerning cracks, all while the client continued shopping without disruption. The piers will provide long-term stability to the entire structure with minimal disruption to the property's exterior landscape.
Our team visited a house in Big Stone Gap, VA, which experienced recurrent water infiltration in the basement. Water seeped through the walls, especially after heavy rains, creating conditions conducive to mold growth if not addressed. To remedy this, our team installed our Wall Vapor Barrier, a multilayered resistant barrier. Once securely attached to the wall, it allows any water or vapor infiltration to be collected by our perimeter drainage system called WaterGuard, which prevents moisture from building up and causing damage. This solution not only prevents water damage in the basement but also improves air quality for the entire house.
A veteran living in Big Stone Gap, VA sought a solution for his sinking living room floor and turned to Master Services for help. Our experienced home inspector performed a comprehensive assessment and pinpointed the exact areas in the crawlspace requiring reinforcement. To tackle the problem effectively, our team installed three Smart Jacks at strategic locations. These specialized jacks offer dependable support to weakened crawlspace beams, presenting a durable solution for sagging floors that can be conveniently adjusted or added as necessary in the future.

In addition, we installed a sump pump system to complement the encapsulation.
