A homeowner in Oneida, TN, wanted to transform their damp, unprotected crawl space into a clean, healthy, and dependable part of their home. Moisture intrusion and poor drainage can lead to elevated humidity, mold growth, wood rot, and poor indoor air quality, making it important to address the source of the problem rather than just the symptoms.
To provide a permanent solution, our team installed our WaterGuard® Drainage System to collect and redirect groundwater to a SuperSump® sump pump system for reliable water removal. We then fully encapsulated the crawl space with our CleanSpace® Crawl Space Vapor Barrier, sealing the area from ground moisture while creating a brighter, cleaner environment. To complete the system, we installed a SaniDry™ Sedona dehumidifier to control humidity levels year-round, helping protect the home's structural components and improve the overall health of the crawl space. Together, these proven systems provide long-term moisture control and peace of mind for the homeowner.
Our team received a call from a homeowner in Riceville, TN, who was seeking assistance in reinforcing their basement walls. After our home inspector identified the root causes of the problem, we recommended the implementation of our Carbon Fiber Wall Armor system to address the issue of hydrostatic pressure on the walls. These carbon fiber straps are exceptionally strong, comparable to steel, and come with the added advantage of a non-intrusive installation process, eliminating the need for drilling or heavy machinery. This is particularly relevant for homeowners who are using the basement as additional living space, as was the case with this particular property. Furthermore, once the repairs are completed, they can be discreetly concealed, preserving the aesthetic appeal of the premises.
Master Services successfully waterproofed a large commercial building in Riceville, TN. The structure is located on the side of a hill, and one of its walls was frequently flooded during rainfall, leading to mold growth and significant efflorescence on the bricks. To tackle this issue, our team installed a vapor barrier that covered the entire wall and implemented the WaterGuard® Drainage System. This system cleverly channels water away from the walls to the lowest point in the building, where our dependable sump pump efficiently removes the water and directs it outside. This solution has greatly reduced humidity inside the building and safeguarded it from future flooding.
This Riceville, TN homeowner had a crawl space that was exposed to constant ground moisture and outside humidity. Without a sealed barrier, moisture was able to rise into the crawl space, creating damp conditions that can contribute to musty odors, poor air quality, and long-term structural concerns. Open vents, exposed soil, and unsealed piers allowed moisture to continually cycle under the home with no real way to control it. Master Foundation & Crawl Space Repair transformed this crawl space by installing CleanSpace® crawl space encapsulation across approximately 1,280 square feet. The durable liner seals the ground and walls to help block moisture from entering the crawl space in the first place. As part of the encapsulation system, crawl space vents were sealed and interior piers were wrapped to create a more complete, controlled environment. The result is a cleaner, drier crawl space designed to support better air quality and long-term protection beneath the home.
Crawlspaces are dirty, tiny, and undesirable to visit. Because of this, many homeowners cannot determine the cause of their sagging or sinking floors. In some cases, the answer is in the crawlspace! One look into this crawlspace and Master Services knew what needed to be done: install SmartJacks.
SmartJacks lifted the wooden beams in this crawlspace to help alleviate sagging floors due to settling.
