The Master Services team conducted a visit to a residence in Ooltewah, TN that was encountering settlement problems. Concrete has the potential to sink due to various factors, such as soil erosion and extreme temperature fluctuations. Excessive rainfall can cause soil erosion, resulting in sinking, shifting, and the formation of cracks. In order to rectify this issue with the concrete slab, we utilized PolyLyft injection, which expands and elevates the concrete.
Master Services effectively addressed the water issues in a basement located in Ooltewah, TN. The homeowner was troubled by frequent flooding during heavy rainfall, which posed a potential risk to the property. To mitigate these concerns, our experienced team implemented a reliable solution – the installation of our innovative ThermalDry® Wall system. This remarkable product not only acts as a vapor barrier but also redirects any water that seeps through the basement walls to the drainage system below. What sets the ThermalDry® Wall system apart is its heat-reflective surface, which reflects 97% of the heat back into the home, offering significant energy savings.
Moreover, we installed a dependable sump pump system that efficiently removes water from the basement and directs it away from the house. The combination of these two systems has completely transformed the basement environment, enhancing its value for the future. The homeowner can now enjoy a dry and comfortable space, free from the worries of water damage.
A homeowner in Ooltewah, TN reached out to Master Services for assistance in enhancing their crawlspace. Upon thorough examination, it was evident that the current plastic sheet covering the ground was inadequate for long-term protection. Our inspection revealed multiple tears and rips in the plastic, leading to the formation of stagnant water pools. As a result, mold growth became a concern and posed a potential threat to the integrity of the floor beams. To tackle this issue, we proposed the installation of a reliable CleanSpace moisture barrier as an initial defense measure. This barrier effectively safeguards the crawlspace by preventing the escalation of humidity levels, thus inhibiting the growth of mold and spores.
Our team visited a vacant home in Collegedale, TN to address basement issues impacting its market value. Our home inspector promptly identified significant signs of water infiltration, notably with the presence of efflorescence. To resolve this, we installed our CleanSpace covering on the basement walls. Additionally, we implemented our WaterGuard system, connected to a TripleSafe sump pump, to effectively capture and redirect water away from the home.
In Ooltewah, TN, Master Services recently resolved an issue with a concrete sidewalk. Our team quickly identified soil erosion as the cause beneath the concrete slab. Thankfully, we provided a swift solution by employing our innovative PolyLyft method.
PolyLyft is specifically designed for elevating and leveling various surfaces, including sunken concrete slabs. This process involves injecting a specially formulated expanding foam beneath the affected area to gently raise the sunken slab back to its original position. Unlike traditional methods such as complete concrete replacement, PolyLyft offers a cost-effective and enduring solution. Opting for PolyLyft not only saves the homeowner time and money but also guarantees a lasting fix for their concrete sidewalk.
