Providing Crawl Space Repair & Basement Waterproofing Services for Allardt, TN

In Allardt, TN, a family experienced significant issues with their cement sidewalk due to erosion and sinking, which led to noticeable cracking and settling. These problems not only created an unsightly appearance but also posed safety risks for tripping. Concerned about the deteriorating condition of their sidewalk, the family reached out to Master Services for a professional solution.

Upon evaluating the situation, Master Services determined that the best course of action was to use PolyLyft, a specialized polyurethane foam designed for lifting and stabilizing concrete. Our skilled team strategically injected PolyLyft at key points along the sidewalk. This innovative method allows for the concrete slab to be permanently stabilized and elevated, addressing the underlying causes of the sinking and cracking.

The PolyLyft technique offers the advantage of being minimally invasive, meaning there was no significant disruption to the surface of the sidewalk during the repair process. This ensured that the area remained aesthetically pleasing while also being structurally sound. As a result, the tripping hazards were effectively eliminated, providing the family with a safe and stable walkway once again.

Thanks to the expertise of Master Services and the effectiveness of the PolyLyft system, the family in Allardt now enjoys a secure and level sidewalk, free from the dangers and eyesores of cracks and settling.

Our team visited Luke T., a homeowner living in Allardt, TN, whose crawlspace experienced recurrent water infiltration. Water seeped through the soil, especially after heavy rains, creating conditions conducive to mold growth if not addressed. To remedy this, our team installed our CleanSpace system, a multilayered resistant barrier. Once securely attached, it allows any water or vapor infiltration to be collected by our perimeter drainage system called EZFlow, which redirects any water infiltration towards the sump pump. Additionally, to improve heat insulation, we installed our SilverGlo system. Its reflective surface reflects the heat back into the crawlspace for ultimate energy savings. This solution not only prevents water damage in the basement but also improves air quality for the entire house. With this system, Luke can rest assured that his crawlspace will be more energy-efficient and clear of further deterioration.

A homeowner in Allardt, TN noticed cracks along the exterior of her home. She had lived in the home for 25 years and was anxious to have the problem addressed before the damage became more extensive. One of our inspectors paid her a visit to examine her home and determine what exactly was happening to create the cracks. After looking everything over, we determined that settlement was at the root of the issue.

Foundation settlement can occur due to different reasons, including soil erosion, poor construction methods, and soil compression. Master Services offers several products to halt settlement and damage. In this case, we recommended our push pier system. The system works like this: the pier's bracket is securely placed against the footing. Next, the pier is driven into bedrock, then the home is jack to level once an acceptable number of piers have been installed.

This system provides long-term support and stabilization for structures. 

David’s home in Allardt, TN had a leaky, wet crawlspace that made the area an unpleasant, musty, and moldy area that started to wreak havoc on the rest of his home. He decided that it was time to take action and called Master Dry for a free inspection and estimate. Sales representative, Jeff McBride, conducted the inspection of his crawlspace and basement and detailed the plan to fix the issue.

Team leader, Eddie LaQuay installed an EZ Flow Drainage system to remove the accumulated, sitting water and placed a clean space vent cover to prevent further water from entering the premises. The team also installed a crawlspace air machine to dry up the remaining water and create a completely dry surface. The crew continued to improve the crawlspace by placing black plastic on the entire surface to generate a clean, dry, and pleasant area that would counteract future damage. They then proceeded to insert an IceGuard, an automatic, maintenance-free sump pump discharge line system that prevents backups in the sump pumps caused by freezing lines, which inhibits basement flooding in colder weather.

David was very impressed by the work Master Dry completed as well as the energy and good attitudes of the crew. He rated the repair and the team responsible for the work a “10 out of 10.”  

Steve of Allardt, TN was frustrated with his overwhelmingly damp, moldy, and dreary crawlspace. He decided to give Master Dry a call to get his crawlspace issues fully resolved.

Upon Steve’s request, experienced sales representative Walt Kimbro visited Steve’s home and completed the thorough evaluation and inspection with a free cost estimate of his situation. The project was then completed with a trained group led by foreman, Michael Geasland. The crew installed an ice guard, LawnScape outlet, EverLast Door, Sante Fe Edge 2, black plastic, wrap piers, and EZ Flow Drainage. He also completed mold remediation with clean space, a clean space light, and a SmartPump. Geasland and his team then fully cleaned the space.

Steve was thrilled that his crawl space was now taken care of and would no longer be a problem because of how Master Dry took a keen eye to detail and completed the job tremendously well the first time.
