In Rossville, GA, a homeowner contacted Master Services regarding cracks in their crawlspace walls. Upon a thorough inspection, our home inspector determined that soil erosion, likely caused by changes in water concentration around the house, was the primary reason behind these cracks. This issue is common, particularly during abrupt temperature changes. Overlooking this problem could potentially jeopardize the overall structural integrity of the house.
To prevent further deterioration, we recommended the installation of helical piers. These piers are specifically designed to provide substantial reinforcement to the foundation, especially within the local terrain. By incorporating these helical piers, Master Services not only restored the homeowner's confidence but also ensured long-term stability and safeguarded their property.
This Rossville, GA home had a crawl space filled with debris, poor protection, and high humidity. The homeowner noticed musty odors and was concerned about how the damp conditions could affect their air quality and the structure of their home. Over time, exposed soil and failing insulation allowed moisture to build up, creating the perfect environment for mold, odors, and wood damage.
To restore the space, the Master Services team removed all damaged insulation and debris before installing a CleanSpace® vapor barrier system with drainage matting to channel any water in the crawl space. Each pier was wrapped, and vents were sealed to prevent outside air from entering the space. A SaniDry™ Sedona dehumidifier with a condensate pump was also added to control humidity and maintain dry conditions year-round. Finally, an EverLast™ crawl space door was installed to create a secure, airtight entry.
With these upgrades, the crawl space is now clean, dry, and protected from moisture-related damage; helping the home stay healthier and more energy-efficient for years to come.
Before repairs, this Rossville, GA crawl space was vulnerable to ongoing moisture problems due to exposed soil, deteriorating insulation, and uncontrolled humidity, allowing ground moisture to rise into the space and create conditions that can lead to mold growth, wood rot, musty odors, and reduced indoor air quality throughout the home. After a full crawl space upgrade by Master Foundation & Crawl Space Repair, the space was completely transformed into a sealed, controlled environment designed to manage moisture long term. The Master Team first removed the moisture-damaged insulation, then installed CleanSpace® vapor barrier with integrated drainage matting across 132 square feet to permanently block ground vapor while directing any water safely beneath the liner instead of allowing it to affect structural components. To actively regulate humidity, a high-efficiency SaniDry Sedona™ dehumidifier was installed to continuously filter and dry the air, preventing condensation and maintaining healthy moisture levels year-round. A condensate pump was added to automatically discharge collected water, along with a dedicated electrical outlet to ensure uninterrupted system performance. With these systems working together, the crawl space shifted from a damp, unreliable area into a dry, sealed, and protected foundation zone, helping safeguard the home against future moisture damage while improving overall durability and air quality.
This Graysville, TN home needed a waterproofing system installed in the crawlspace. Moisture can cause a variety of problems in a home, not the least of which are mold and rot. To protect this crawlspace, the team installed our CleanSpace liner, which is mold and mildew resistant and protects against humidity.
As a home settles, it leads to a host of problems that will only worse over time. Cracks, springy or sloping floors, windows and doors that stick, and creaking floors all are signs of settlement. This home near Fort Oglethorpe, GA was exhibiting signs of settlement, including unsightly cracks! Our team installed our SmartJacks system, providing support to the crawlspace and staving off future damage.
