The team visited a home near Coalfield, TN that lacked an encapsulation system. Encapsulation keeps water damage, mold, and mildew at bay, as well as mitigates energy costs.
This crawlspace in Sweetwater, TN quickly turned into an ideal environment for mold and spore growth. Suspecting mold and moisture as the cause of the smell, the homeowners contacted Master Services for waterproofing. The area had been encapsulated by the home builder years ago using subpar materials and techniques. Our team installed the CleanSpace vapor barrier, a reliable and high-quality liner that covers the floor, walls, and columns of the crawlspace, preventing further moisture and mold issues. Additionally, CleanSpace's bright color improved the appearance, making the area suitable for clean storage.
We visited a residence situated in Sweetwater, TN to assess its crawlspace. The beams in the crawlspace were susceptible to deterioration, shifting, and sinking with time, which can result in structural complications. Our team was able to effectively resolve the problem by utilizing our efficient SmartJacks system.
The SmartJacks system comprises of adjustable steel piers that are high-capacity and provides a durable solution by preventing further settling and restoring the home's floor to its initial position. This solution is not only prompt but also long-lasting, and it can be enhanced in case more weight is added to the upper floors.
A concerned homeowner in Oliver Springs, TN reached out to Master Services about their unencapsulated crawlspace. They worried about the implications of letting it sit vulnerable to water, mold, mildew, and pests. We inspected the crawlspace, conferred with the homeowner, and agreed that the right option would be our CleanSpace vapor barrier and SaniDry Sedona. The barrier defends against water and mold, while the dehumidifier averts humidity and keeps the rest of the home comfortable.
A homeowner in Cleveland, TN sought help from Master Services for sagging floors. Our team conducted a detailed inspection and identified the specific areas in the basement that required support. The crawlspace had previously been encapsulated with a cheap plastic sheet, which failed to keep water and moisture away from the area.
To effectively resolve the issue, we replaced the plastic sheet with our durable vapor barrier called Clean Space, and then we utilized our trusted Smart Jacks system, designed specifically for tight spaces. These specialized jacks offer strong and lasting support for weakened crawlspace beams, providing a reliable solution for sagging floors.
By combining these two systems, we added value to the home and restored the crawlspace to a healthy and safer environment.
