In the serene town of Amonate, VA, the team at Master Services tackled the task of sealing a crawlspace to protect it from potential issues, especially in light of recent heavy water infiltration. Our primary objective was to prevent water damage, mold growth, decay, odors, and pests from infiltrating the space. To accomplish this, we chose the reliable CleanSpace® system, renowned for its durability and effectiveness. The system was expertly attached to the walls using secure plastic fasteners, ensuring a steadfast fit through meticulous drilling. The CleanSpace® system created an ideal environment, successfully managing moisture and preventing mold growth.

Our team visited a home near Richlands, VA, to inspect a crawlspace needing support for its wooden beams. Over time, high humidity and mold growth can compromise the integrity of wooden beams, causing floors to sag. Combined with natural wear and tear, beams can deteriorate, shift, and settle. To address this issue, we applied our SmartJacks system. This solution effectively reinforces weakened beams, even in confined spaces like this particular crawlspace, providing a lasting remedy for the problem.
Master Services recently completed a crawlspace encapsulation and waterproofing project in Richlands, VA. The homeowner, who had just purchased a home, was unaware of the extensive moisture issues lurking beneath the house. The soil lay exposed, and high humidity was a constant concern. After conducting a thorough inspection, our team recommended a comprehensive solution to protect the home.
First, we thoroughly cleaned the crawlspace to remove debris and prepare for encapsulation. Then, we installed a durable vapor barrier along the walls and floor to seal out moisture, helping to prevent mold growth and maintain a dry environment; a process called "encapsulation".
To further protect the area, we set up a reliable sump pump system to manage any incoming water, followed by a dehumidifier to keep humidity levels in check. These measures ensure the crawlspace stays dry, improve overall air quality, and give the homeowner peace of mind.
