Master Services Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Cleveland, TN approached Master Services for assistance in improving her home value as she intended to sell the house shortly after. Our team conducted a detailed inspection and identified specific areas in the basement that required support. The crawlspace had previously been encapsulated with a cheap plastic sheet, which failed to keep water and moisture away from the area.

To effectively resolve the issue, we replaced the plastic sheet with our durable vapor barrier called Clean Space, and then we utilized our trusted Smart Jacks system, designed specifically for tight spaces. These specialized jacks offer strong and lasting support for weakened crawlspace beams, providing a reliable solution for sagging floors.

By combining these two systems, we added value to the home and restored the crawlspace to a healthy and safer environment, preparing it for potential buyers.

In Elizabethton, TN, our team at Master Services took on the project of enhancing a crawlspace that had been previously encapsulated with a deteriorated plastic sheet, leading to issues like water pooling and mold formation inside the crawlspace. To tackle this problem, we opted for the reliable CleanSpace® Wall system, known for its durability and effectiveness. This system not only decreases humidity in the crawlspace but also improves the overall air quality in your home. Once encapsulated, this area can now be used as additional storage space, and with the addition of lights, the white surface makes the atmosphere brighter!

In Elizabethton, TN, our team recently tackled a large crawlspace that had been previously encapsulated with inadequate material, leading to mold growth on the joists over time. After a thorough inspection, our crew removed all debris and the old encapsulation, then sealed off the vents. They then installed our Drainage Matting and CleanSpace liner, brightening the crawlspace and protecting against moisture. Next, we added our SilverGlo insulation to the walls, providing exceptional energy efficiency and preventing heat loss from below-grade spaces. This upgrade allows the homeowner to utilize this additional space even during the coldest months of the year while saving on energy bills. To maintain stable humidity levels and prevent mold and spore growth year-round, we also installed our Sedona dehumidifier.

A veteran in Elizabethton, TN noticed unsettling dips in his kitchen floor that caused windows to stick and created an uneven surface throughout the space. Having had the crawl space fully encapsulated by our company last year, the homeowner was already familiar with the quality and reliability of our work. When the new issues arose, the homeowner decided to reach out to us again to complete the necessary repairs, confident in our ability to address any concerns effectively. 

Our home inspector responded promptly, conducting a thorough assessment of the crawl space to determine the root causes of the floor irregularities. It was clear that additional reinforcements were needed to ensure the long-term stability of the house floor. 

Based on our comprehensive evaluation our skilled crew installed two rows of adjustable SmartJacks at key locations beneath the kitchen floor. These robust jacks were meticulously placed to reinforce weakened beams and restore the floor to an even level. By the end of the project, the homeowner was extremely pleased with the results, grateful to have a stable and smooth basement floor once more, and reassured by the lasting protection provided.

Basements are prone to flooding and moisture problems. Water finds its way inside via walls, floors, joints, and cracks. In some cases, moisture will even penetrate through porous concrete and inside the area. To keep water from destroying this Galax, VA basement, the team installed our best sump pump system: the TripleSafe. This system offers three reliable levels of protection, ensuring your basement is kept dry even during power outages.
