In Chattanooga, TN, our skilled team from Master Services undertook the task of sealing a crawlspace to protect it against mold growth. The client had two young children with severe allergies exacerbated by the poor air quality beneath their home. The crawlspace had been previously encapsulated with subpar materials that were not properly secured, leading to the proliferation of mold spores.
To ensure a dry crawlspace environment, we chose the reliable CleanSpace® Wall system, well-known for its durability and effectiveness. With precision, we securely attached the system to the basement walls using plastic fasteners, ensuring a strong and steadfast connection through careful drilling. This system played a crucial role in maintaining optimal moisture levels within the crawlspace, effectively preventing the growth of mold.
Master Services recently addressed a concrete sidewalk issue in Chattanooga, Tennessee. A previous client who had previously installed a carbon fiber armor inside his basement, adjacent to the sidewalk, contacted us for assistance. Our experienced team promptly identified the issue as concrete settling, a common occurrence, and took care to inject the critical sites without affecting the foundation wall underneath.
The PolyLyft process involves injecting a specially formulated expanding foam beneath the affected area, gently raising the sunken slab back to its original position. This approach provides a cost-effective and permanent solution to the problem. By choosing PolyLyft, the homeowner not only saves time and money but also ensures a long-lasting remedy for their concrete sidewalk.
In Chattanooga, TN, a homeowner contacted us for assistance in waterproofing their garage due to persistent water infiltration, especially after heavy rainfall. Following an inspection by our home inspector, we recommended the installation of a water collection and redirection system. Specifically, we chose to install our WaterGuard drainage system, designed to efficiently collect and divert water away from the area. Notably, WaterGuard is distinct from traditional drain tile systems, as it's installed just beneath the perimeter edge of the basement floor, providing effective water management.
To ensure comprehensive protection, we also introduced the TripleSafe sump pump, equipped with three layers of defense against potential water-related issues. It's worth mentioning that our client opted to include a backup battery pack, which ensures continued pump operation even during electrical blackouts.
Master Services was called to this Chattanooga home after the homeowner noticed moisture concerns and an outdated vapor barrier in the crawl space. The area had exposed soil, debris, and a failing liner that was no longer protecting the home from humidity or musty odors. Our team installed a full CleanSpace encapsulation system to seal the crawl space from the earth, creating a bright, durable, and moisture controlled environment. We also added two SaniDry Sedona dehumidifiers to keep humidity low and the air healthy year round. This transformation gives the homeowner long term protection and a much cleaner, safer foundation space.
The Master Services team headed to a home near Lupton City, TN to fix serious problems with the foundation. Settlement often occurs when soils shift or erode, causing cracks and other problems. To fix this home, we installed both helical and push piers, which will stabilize and secure the foundation to prevent further damage.
