In North Tazewell, VA, a home encountered foundation settlement, prominently displayed by one of its window frames. This issue commonly arises when the ground beneath shifts or erodes over time. To resolve this, the Master Services crew installed helical piers, similar to large screws, to firmly anchor the home to stable ground nearby. We strategically drilled holes and installed three helical piers at key points until achieving the desired stabilization. These devices, connected to the footing with steel brackets, guarantee stability, ensuring the house remains secure for years to come.
A homeowner in North Tazewell, VA, reached out to us for assistance with waterproofing their basement, which was used as additional living space. While there were no cracks, there were clear signs of water intrusion, mold, and other related issues. After conducting a comprehensive evaluation, we recommended the installation of a water collection and redirection system, as hydrostatic pressure is often the underlying cause of such problems.
Our chosen solution was the WaterGuard drainage system, designed to efficiently collect and divert water away from the basement, effectively managing water infiltration. To provide complete protection, we also installed the TripleSafe sump pump, which offers three layers of defense against potential water problems. With these solutions in place, the homeowner's basement is now safeguarded against water-related issues and the potential growth of mold.
In North Tazewell, VA, a homeowner named Derek recently noticed his crawlspace was in poor condition despite having an encapsulation system in place. The liner had deteriorated over time, becoming torn, dirty, and unevenly arranged. Derek had grown increasingly worried about the impact this neglect was having on his family’s air quality and the overall comfort of their home.
Seeking a reliable solution, Derek reached out to our team. After a thorough inspection, we recommended installing our CleanSpace moisture barrier. This durable and pristine liner is meticulously secured along the crawlspace walls and floor to ensure maximum protection against moisture and contaminants. Additionally, we installed a TripleSafe Sump Pump system at the lowest point of the area to effectively pump water away from the crawlspace, ensuring long-term dryness and protection.
Our crew worked carefully to transform Derek’s crawlspace, paying close attention to detail to avoid any damage to existing structures and plumbing. By the end of the day, the crawlspace was completely revitalized, providing Derek peace of mind and a noticeable improvement in his home's environment.
