In Bristol, VA, a resident got tired of seeing her cement sidewalk sinking and noticed erosion underneath causing cracking. Typically, this occurs due to soil movement or temperature fluctuations affecting ground moisture levels and its ability to sustain the weight of the cement slab. To remedy the situation, Master Services was contacted, and our team utilized PolyLyft to inject strategic points along the sidewalk. This specialized formula is engineered to permanently stabilize and elevate concrete slabs without major surface disruption. With a secure sidewalk, tripping hazards are now a thing of the past!
In Bristol, VA, a homeowner faced a frustrating issue—he couldn’t park his car in the garage due to a large sink in the driveway! This problem is often caused by soil settlement or washout, which can occur when changes in humidity affect the soil's ability to support the weight of the concrete slab. To solve the issue, Master Services was called in, and our team used PolyLyft to inject key points along the driveway. This specialized liquid formula quickly expands and hardens, taking the perfect shape to permanently stabilize and lift the concrete without causing major surface disruption. With the driveway securely restored, the homeowner was finally able to park his car inside the garage again!
Master Services recently visited a homeowner in Bristol, VA, to address persistent water intrusion in their basement. This large basement served as both a living area and parking space, making the issue particularly disruptive. The homeowner was concerned about the potential damage to their belongings and the usability of the space.
After a comprehensive inspection, our home inspector determined that the water infiltration was causing efflorescence on the basement walls. The homeowner’s keen attention to detail had led them to notice the signs early, prompting a swift response. To resolve the issue, we recommended a combination of our WaterGuard® Perimeter Drainage System and the TripleSafe Sump Pump for maximum protection.
Our crew began by installing the CleanSpace Wall Vapor Barrier along the walls to prevent further water damage and direct any incoming moisture into the drainage system. With precision and care, they completed the installation of the WaterGuard system and TripleSafe Sump Pump, ensuring minimal disruption to the homeowner’s daily activities.
By the end of the project, the basement was fully protected from water intrusion, providing the homeowner with peace of mind and a restored, functional space. The homeowner expressed gratitude for the team’s efficiency and professionalism, knowing their home was now safeguarded against future water issues.
This Bluff City, TN home was struggling with persistent moisture and mold growth inside the crawl space. The homeowner began noticing a musty smell and humidity that was creeping into the living areas of the home. Over time, this kind of environment can lead to poor air quality, wood decay, and uncomfortable living conditions throughout the house.
To restore a healthy and dry environment, the Master Services team performed an environmentally safe soda blasting treatment to remove existing mold from the crawl space surfaces. Afterward, our crew installed a SaniDry™ Sedona dehumidifier to help control moisture levels and prevent future mold growth. This combination of treatments not only removed the visible mold but also created a cleaner, drier space beneath the home, protecting both the structure and the air the homeowners breathe. The SaniDry™ Sedona dehumidifier will keep the crawl at a humidity level that does not allow mold to grow.
This Bluff City, TN home had a damp, musty crawl space with fallen insulation, exposed soil, and signs of mold growth. The homeowner noticed odors and wanted to address the source before it caused structural damage or poor air quality inside the living space. Our team began by removing old insulation and debris, then treated the area with an environmentally safe soda blast mold treatment.
To prevent future moisture issues, we installed a full CleanSpace® Crawl Space Encapsulation System, wrapping the floors, walls, and piers in a durable vapor barrier. We also added SilverGlo® insulation to help improve energy efficiency and an EverLast™ Door for a tight, secure seal. A SaniDry™ Sedona dehumidifier with a condensate pump now keeps the space dry year-round, while new lighting and a dedicated electrical outlet improve accessibility and safety.
The transformation turned this dark, unhealthy space into a bright, clean, and conditioned environment. With the new system in place, the crawl space is now dry, energy-efficient, and protected for the long term.
