Master Services Before & After Photos

The Master Services team in Kodak, TN took measures to secure a crawlspace, preventing water damage, mold growth, decay, unpleasant odors, and pest intrusion. Upon inspection, our team observed debris and clear indications of mold in the area.

To fortify the space and create a barrier from external elements, we used the durable CleanSpace® vapor barrier. Fastened with plastic supports, this system was installed on the basement walls for long-term stability. Additionally, our experts recommended deploying the Sedona dehumidifier to regulate moisture levels and hinder mold formation. These integrated systems effectively establish an optimal environment in the crawlspace, managing moisture and thwarting mold growth.

A log cabin in Kodak, TN, encountered stability issues with its wooden crawlspace. The wood posts and concrete columns were no longer effectively supporting the sagging living room and kitchen floors of the cabin. High moisture levels in the crawlspace were dampening the wood beams, worsening the problem of sinking floors. Master Services intervened to address the issue by introducing our trusted SmartJacks system, effectively stabilizing the home even within the constraints of a tight space.

A typical home in Kodak, TN suffered from visible exterior wall and window frame cracking, a telltale sign of foundation settling. Our home inspector swiftly pinpointed the cause: soil erosion from heavy rainfall or sudden changes in humidity. To remedy this, our team strategically installed three helical piers to anchor the home securely to stable ground. To dig through the hardened, clay-rich soil, our crew had to use water to soften the terrain before starting the excavation. Installed with precision, these piers ensure the long-term stabilization of the house, providing stability for years to come!

A homeowner in Kodak, TN, recently discovered a sinking section of the sidewalk near her newly built home. Worried about the safety of her children, who often played outside, she noticed a 3-inch sink had formed, creating a potential tripping hazard. Concerned about further damage, she contacted Master Services for a solution.

Our team promptly scheduled a free inspection, and upon arrival, our home inspector explained that soil erosion from rainwater had likely caused the concrete to settle unevenly. This kind of issue, if left unchecked, could lead to more serious problems, so immediate action was necessary.

To resolve the situation, our crew recommended using PolyLyft, a fast-acting foam designed to stabilize and lift sunken concrete. They carefully drilled small holes in the affected area and injected the PolyLyft, which expanded and raised the sidewalk back to its original level.

Within minutes, the sidewalk was restored, eliminating the hazard. The homeowner was grateful for the quick, efficient service, knowing that her kids could play safely and that the repair would prevent further sinking.

A homeowner in Kodak, TN, contacted Master Services after spotting stair-step cracks forming at the corner near the main entrance of his red brick house. Concerned about potential structural issues, he scheduled an appointment with one of our home inspectors. During the inspection, it was determined that soil settling, caused by fluctuating moisture levels and extreme temperature changes, was the main culprit.

We recommended installing two helical piers beneath the affected corner of the house. These piers reach stable soil deep underground to provide solid support, while minimizing disruption to the soil around the home. Once the installation was complete, the trenches were backfilled and leveled, restoring the area to its original state. The homeowner felt relieved to see the cracks close and had peace of mind knowing his home was now safe and secure for the years ahead.
