Master Services Before & After Photos

Brad, a longtime homeowner in Crossville, TN, had always taken pride in maintaining his property. But recently, he noticed unsettling signs—stair-step cracks forming along the side of his house and doors that didn’t quite close properly. At first, he brushed it off, thinking it was minor wear and tear. But when a neighbor pointed out a slight tilt in his window frame, a sinking feeling set in. Something was definitely wrong. Worried about the stability of his home, Brad decided to call Master Services to investigate.

When our home inspector arrived, it became clear that the soil beneath Brad’s house had shifted, causing the foundation to settle unevenly. Knowing how much Brad valued his home, we recommended a solution that would provide long-term stability. Three helical piers, which act like giant screws anchoring deep into stable ground, were installed to prevent further settlement. This method works particularly well in East Tennessee’s clay-rich soil, providing the strength needed to support the structure.

After just one day of work, Brad watched as his wall was stabilized and the stair-step cracks began to close. The relief was instant—his home felt secure again, and he no longer had to worry about those troubling cracks spreading.

A homeowner in Crossville, TN discovered water entering their finished basement and needed an effective solution to prevent mold, mildew, rot, and structural damage. Our team quickly installed the TripleSafe sump pump, which provides three levels of protection and works during power outages.

Master Services visited a homeowner in Crossville, TN to inspect his crawlspace. The area was not in good condition, as it had a ragged and inefficient vapor barrier in place that did little to protect against moisture and mold. Our team recommended our CleanSpace moisture barrier and SaniDry Sedona dehumidifier. These systems keep crawlspaces dry, sanitary, and safe. 

Master Service was called to deal with a problem involving a damaged foundation wall in Crossville, TN. During our inspection, we observed visible indications of hydrostatic pressure and recognized the immediate need for intervention. After careful consideration, our team decided to employ the Plate anchor wall system, which presents a less costly and less intrusive solution to rebuilding or replacing damaged foundation walls. Our wall anchor system extends well beyond the foundation, utilizing the soil's stability as a support to prevent any further inward bending of the wall. The homeowner was pleased with the outcome, particularly since we were able to accomplish the task with minimal disruption to their yard.

A homeowner in Crossville, TN reached out to Master Services seeking assistance with upgrading their crawlspace. Although the area already had a plastic sheet covering the ground, it became apparent during our inspection that this material was thin and inadequate for providing long-lasting protection. We observed numerous tears and rips in the plastic, resulting in the formation of standing water pools. Over time, this moisture led to mold growth and potential damage to the floor beams. To tackle this issue, we recommended installing a reliable CleanSpace moisture barrier as the first line of defense. This barrier effectively prevents water and moisture from raising humidity levels in the crawlspace, thus inhibiting the growth of mold and spores.
