Master Services Before & After Photos

Master Services was contacted by a property owner not far from Troutdale, VA about some foundation settlement. We took a look and recommended our helical pier system, which stabilizes and realigns homes that are undergoing settlement. With our helical piers in place, this home will be preserved for years to come. 

Settlement is a big worry for homeowners. Luckily, there are telltale signs that warn of issues with a home's foundation. This home near Bluefield, VA was exhibiting signs of settlement, including stair-step cracks along the brick exterior. Our team corrected the problem by installing helical piers, which are installed along the foundation to provide stabilization. 

A homeowner in Bluefield, VA, contacted Master Services regarding a sagging floor in his basement. Upon inspection, our team identified that the primary issue was the poor quality of the supporting wood beams. Over time, mold growth and uneven pressure tend to bow and alter the morphology of the wooden beams. To effectively address this problem, Master Services installed our reliable Smart Jacks system. These specialized jacks are designed to provide robust support for sagging floors, offering a long-term solution, especially when located within a basement. Our crew worked efficiently to minimize disruption to the cement floor.

Over time, concrete naturally hardens, leading to the development of cracks. That's why we were called to assist a home in Bluefield, VA, having issues with its concrete sidewalk. Our home inspector swiftly identified poorly compacted soil beneath the concrete slab as the root cause. To provide a prompt solution, we recommended our innovative PolyLyft method. 

PolyLyft is specifically engineered to elevate and level various surfaces, including sunken concrete slabs. This process entails injecting a specially formulated expanding foam beneath the affected area to gently raise the sunken slab back to its original position. Unlike traditional methods like complete concrete replacement, PolyLyft offers a cost-effective and long-lasting solution. Choosing PolyLyft not only saves homeowners time and money but also ensures a durable fix for their concrete sidewalk. 

This crawlspace in Bluefield, VA, had become a prime environment for mold and spore growth. Concerned that mold and moisture were causing the persistent odor, the homeowners reached out to Master Services for a reliable waterproofing solution. The area had been encapsulated by the home builder years ago, but with subpar materials and poor technique. Our crew installed the CleanSpace vapor barrier, a durable, high-quality liner that covers the floor, walls, and columns of the crawlspace, effectively preventing further moisture and mold issues. The bright CleanSpace liner also improved the appearance, making the area suitable for clean storage.
