In Bristol, TN, a homeowner reached out to Master Services regarding cracks that had appeared within the walls of their residential building. After a comprehensive evaluation of the foundation, our team concluded that soil erosion, especially due to the sandy soil composition, was responsible for these cracks. The concrete slab supporting the house was settling because of the sandy soil's natural contraction. Neglecting this issue could potentially compromise the overall structural integrity of the house.
To prevent further deterioration, we recommended the installation of helical piers. These piers are specially designed to offer substantial foundation reinforcement, especially within the local terrain. By implementing these helical piers, Master Services not only restored the homeowner's confidence but also ensured long-lasting stability and protection for their property.
In Bristol, Tennessee, the experienced team at Master Services took on the project of sealing a crawlspace to protect it from mold and water damage. The existing encapsulation material in the crawlspace had deteriorated and torn over time, leading to water infiltration.
To achieve this, we chose the reliable CleanSpace® Wall system, known for its durability and effectiveness. Additionally, we installed our patented thermal insulation panels on the walls, known as SilverGlo™. Besides resisting heat conduction, SilverGlo boasts a radiant barrier that reflects heat back into your crawlspace for ultimate energy savings. With these solutions in place, the crawlspace is now well-protected from potential issues, providing the homeowner with peace of mind and a more energy-efficient home.
The Master Services team recently attended a residence in Bristol, TN, dealing with settlement problems affecting a substantial concrete slab. The homeowner discovered multiple cracks, not only posing a tripping hazard but worsening over time. Concrete sinking and shifting can happen due to soil erosion and temperature changes, leading to cracks. To tackle this, we employed the PolyLyft injection method, effectively lifting and stabilizing the concrete surface by expansion. Consequently, our client now has a secure and stable platform, offering the much-needed stability.
A crawlspace in Bristol, TN, was in dire need of renovation! The previous homeowner had attempted to encapsulate the area with a poorly installed plastic sheet, which failed to prevent water vapor from infiltrating the space. As a result, the area became susceptible to water intrusion, mold, and mildew. To remedy this issue, our team recommended our reliable CleanSpace® Wall system, known for its durability and effectiveness. This system offers multiple layers of protection, reducing humidity in the crawlspace and improving overall air quality in your home. Once encapsulated, each layer is securely attached to the walls, ensuring long-term effectiveness.
In Bristol, TN, Sarah had been excited about her recent home purchase, but the crawlspace was a different story. It was filled with rocks and debris leftover from a previous renovation, and the damp, musty air started raising concerns about the condition of her home. Without any form of encapsulation, the crawlspace was vulnerable to water intrusion, and Sarah worried about the impact on her family’s health. After noticing persistent humidity and strange odors, she decided it was time to call Master Services for help.
Our home inspector assessed the situation and recommended an encapsulation, along with the installation of a Sedona dehumidifier to control moisture levels. Sarah didn’t hesitate to schedule the job. In just one day, our crew cleared out the debris, encapsulated the space, and set up the dehumidifier to ensure long-term protection. Sarah was relieved to have a clean, dry crawlspace, and felt confident that her home was now healthier and more secure.
