This garage in LaFollette, TN, was sinking right in front of the home's entrance, creating a tripping hazard for anyone passing by. Master Services addressed this problem by injecting PolyLyft into the void beneath the slab, raising and stabilizing it to its original height within the same day. Due to the peculiar nature of PolyLyft, this product permeates the void underneath in liquid form and then solidifies within minutes, providing an immediate and visible lift.
In La Follette, TN, the owner of a charming cabin reached out to Master Services concerning the appearance of cracks on the exterior walls of their residence. After conducting a comprehensive evaluation of the foundation, our team determined that soil subsidence was the underlying cause of these cracks. Given that the cabin was situated on the side of a steep hill, there was a risk of potential collapse if the issue wasn't addressed promptly. This posed a serious threat to the overall structural integrity of the house.
To prevent further degradation, we recommended the installation of helical piers. These piers are specifically designed to provide substantial reinforcement to foundations, particularly well-suited for the local clay terrain. By employing these helical piers, Master Services not only reinstated the homeowner's confidence but also guaranteed enduring stability and security for their valuable property.
In La Follette, TN, our installation team at Master Services efficiently addressed a weakened retaining wall issue using Helical Tie-Back Anchors. The wall had developed cracks due to prolonged exposure to excessive moisture caused by hydrostatic pressure from the nearby terrain. To remedy this, we utilized Helical Tie-Back Anchors to stabilize the wall. These anchors securely connected the wall to the stable soil in its vicinity, providing essential reinforcement to the entire wall structure. The procedure was carried out with efficiency, resulting in minimal disruption to both the interior and exterior of the property.
In LaFollette, TN, a homeowner reached out to Master Services to enhance a crawlspace previously encapsulated with inferior materials by the home builder. Over time, issues like water pooling and mold formation arose due to elevated humidity and the abundance of organic material, particularly in the wooden beams. To tackle this, we opted for the reliable CleanSpace® Wall system. This system not only reduces crawlspace humidity but also improves overall home air quality by preventing water or vapor infiltration. Additionally, we sealed any vents to the outside and installed our Sedona dehumidifier, thus creating a controlled environment inside the crawlspace. With this encapsulation and our dehumidifier, the area is now protected from water infiltration and humidity.
An Oneida home was plagued by a musty, damp crawlspace filled with moisture and mold. Master Services came in to install black plastic, EZ Flow Drainage, an IceGuard, SilverGlo Wall insulation, a SmartPump Sump Pump, a lawnscape outlet, and an electrical outlet.

The tranformation from an unpleasant, smelly, and damp crawlspace to an aesthetically pleasing, odor-free, and dry space was a success!
