Lenoir City's Leading Basement Waterproofing & Crawl Space Repair Contractor

John, a meticulous homeowner in a newly built home near Lenoir City, TN, prided himself on maintaining his property. However, a recent home inspection revealed an unsettling truth: growing cracks marred the corner of his garage. Worried about the structural integrity of his home, John knew he couldn't ignore the issue.

Seeking expert advice, John turned to Master Services. Their team swiftly arrived at his home, assessed the situation, and pinpointed the root cause: soil erosion had led to foundation settlement. To rectify the problem, Master Services proposed a solution: installing two helical piers. These sturdy supports would anchor the home into the ground, preventing further damage.

Impressed by the efficiency and expertise of Master Services, John scheduled the installation. Within a single day, the crew arrived, meticulously installed the helical piers, and left John's property in pristine condition. With the foundation now stabilized, John could finally relax, reassured that his home was safe and secure.

In Lenoir City, TN, a family encountered several troubling issues while remodeling their basement. They noticed efflorescence and a large crack on one of the walls, raising concerns and complicating their remodeling efforts. Seeking assistance, they contacted Master Services, and our Call Center promptly scheduled a free estimate with one of our professional home inspectors.

Upon close inspection, it was evident that the optimal solution for these homeowners was the installation of two strips of carbon fiber armor to stabilize the wall. Carbon fiber strapping, known for its bi-directional strength, is an excellent material for reinforcing cracks. Once cured, it is stronger than steel and can easily be concealed or painted over, allowing the basement remodeling to proceed smoothly.

Samantha R. discovered a substantial crack in her patio cement floor. Over time, she noticed the crack expanding to about 2-3 inches! Concerned about the potential escalation of the issue, she quickly contacted Master Services. After setting up an appointment, one of our home inspectors visited her property and identified the cause of the cracks: soil erosion. Water erosion, especially after heavy rainfall, removes soil, weakening it and leading to the collapse of the concrete above. Fortunately, we provided a swift and effective solution using our innovative PolyLyft method. PolyLyft is specifically designed to elevate and level various surfaces, including sunken concrete slabs. This process involves injecting a specially formulated expanding foam beneath the affected area, gently raising the sunken slab back to its original position. Unlike traditional methods like complete concrete replacement, PolyLyft offers a cost-effective and enduring solution.

A homeowner in Lenoir City, TN noticed some alarming changes in his home. It appeared that floors were sloping and sagging. He didn’t want the problem to get worse, so he called Master Services to come out for an inspection. The solution was clear: his garage needed some SmartJacks support.

To install the SmartJacks system, our team started by mapping out specific points where support was most needed. Next, they excavated holes at each location. These holes were filled with crushed stone, then a concrete base was placed over the spot. Next, the steel jack posts were cut to length and installed. The jack was mounted against the girder, then tightened to lift the floor back to its original position. SmartJacks are a durable and permanent way to bolster a home, and they are completely adjustable for future tightening.

This homeowner need never fear sagging floors again.

This Lenoir City, TN resident was concerned about his crawlspace. It was musty, dark, and lacked encapsulation, which could negatively impact his energy bill. He wanted his crawlspace to be energy-efficient, dry, and prepared for anything. That’s why he called Master Services.

To get the basement in tip-top shape, the team started by installing a crawlspace sump pump. Our system comes equipped with a cast-iron Zoeller® sump pump, a liner, an alarm, and a backup battery pump. Next, they installed our CleanSpace® Crawl Space Vapor Barrier, which prevents water vapor and humidity from permeating crawlspaces. If too much water infiltrates a crawlspace, it creates mold, rot, and unpleasant odors that can emanate into the rest of the home.

With the pump and liner installed, groundwater, mold, humidity, and rot won’t stand a chance of destroying this crawlspace.

When Randy D. of Lenoir City noticed that a wall in his basement was no longer straight and that water from the outside was seeping through the wall, he knew he shouldn’t waste any time before calling in a professional. He called Master Dry Foundation and Waterproofing Specialists, explained his crawl space problem, and scheduled a free estimate.

Expert Scott Frazier came out to conduct an inspection and from the inside of the house he could see what Randy was concerned about. There was a lot of shrubbery around the outer wall of the house, and it would all have to be removed to excavate deep enough to get the job done. Foreman Josh Williams and his crew got to work immediately, installing PowerBrace wall reinforcements on the interior to help make it straight again. They then cleared the dirt and debris away from the offending exterior wall. They also installed CleanSpace drainage matting to fix the water seepage problem. Finally, when all the products were working like they should be, the team made sure to clean up the lawn to make it look like it did before the repair.

Randy can now focus on the appearance of his home without worrying that something is wrong beneath the surface. Randy is thankful for Master Dry’s hard work and the peace of mind he now enjoys!

Sidney T. of Lenoir City, TN discovered signs of foundation settlement around the outskirts of her property. The walls and floor of her boathouse garage was severely cracked and prone to water damage. And the driveway was not in much better condition. This foundation settlement could escalate very quickly since the property sat on a tiered hillside. Both the garage and the driveway were barely usable as is, and Sidney feared the long-term effects of inaction. She contacted Master Dry Foundation and Waterproofing Specialists after finding their website.

Foundation and waterproofing expert Scott Frazier determined that to fix all of Sidney’s problems, the settled foundation would need repairing and the area would need to be waterproofed to stop further damage. He suggested helical piers behind the garage and poly foam injections in the driveway and the interior of the garage to lift and support the settled concrete. To drain water away from the foundation of the garage and its walls, drainage pipes below the surface connected to a LawnScape outlet, along with CleanSpace drainage matting along the back wall. Foreman Josh Wiliams and his team completed all the repairs in just four days!

Now Sidney’s driveway and garage are level and water is no longer an issue thanks to the experts at Master Dry!
