Basement Waterproofing & Crawl Space Repair Experts in Sevierville, TN

The Master Services team recently worked on a beautiful home in Sevierville, TN, owned by Mark, a retired engineer with a keen eye for detail. Mark had only recently purchased the property, which is nestled on a hillside, and immediately noticed troubling cracks in one of the structural walls. With his background, he understood the risks of ignoring the issue, especially in an area prone to heavy rains. Concerned about the stability of his new home, Mark decided to act quickly and scheduled an appointment with our team.

After a thorough inspection, we confirmed Mark’s suspicions: hydrostatic pressure from the surrounding soil was compromising the wall’s integrity. To address the issue, we installed five of our dependable wall plate anchors. This system leverages the stability of the exterior soil to reinforce the damaged wall, halting further movement and restoring structural security.

Although Mark admitted he was initially anxious about such a significant repair, he was incredibly pleased with the results. Our team’s professionalism and attention to detail gave him confidence, and seeing his home stabilized brought him peace of mind. Mark expressed his gratitude for a job well done, knowing his new home was safe for the future.

Our team swiftly responded to a distress call from James H., a homeowner in Sevierville, TN, who found difficulty in closing his bedroom window one morning. Concerned about potential structural damage, he sought assistance from Master Services. Upon inspection, we confirmed soil erosion as the culprit and identified specific areas requiring immediate reinforcement, particularly the corner of the house. Carefully excavating around the house, we exposed the cement footer while ensuring the preservation of decorative bushes adjacent to the wall. Subsequently, we installed helical piers beneath the foundation, securing them to the concrete using steel foundation brackets. This solution effectively anchors the soil, preventing further settling and often restoring the site to its original elevation. Following the completion of the project and the filling of excavated holes, the yard was restored with minimal disruption. With this system in place, James can have peace of mind knowing that his home is safeguarded against future settling issues.

This vacation home in Sevierville, TN needed serious help. It lacked encapsulation, so moisture was collecting on wooden areas and creating mold.

To fix the problem, Master Services installed our CleanSpace® Crawl Space Vapor Barrier. This durable liner was installed along the floor to prevent water vapor and humidity from collecting in the area. If a crawlspace isn’t kept dry, mold and rot set in and slowly destroy the home’s structure. Our liner comes with a 25-year warranty against rips and tears, and is resistant to mildew and mold.

Master Services also installed a crawlspace dehumidifier to further protect the space from moisture and mold. Our dehumidifiers are high capacity, low maintenance, and come with an ironclad 5-year warranty.

With these measures in place, the property owner can relax and enjoy their time in the mountains.

The crawlspace of this mountain cabin in Sevierville, TN was inundated with mold. When there’s too much moisture, mold can grow on wood and other organic material. Mold not only eats away at a home’s foundations, but ultimately costs money and can create breathing problems for occupants.

To rid the home of mold, Master Services used our effective soda blasting technique. This mold spray largely is comprised of baking soda, and it removes mold without harming the surface area. This concentrated disinfectant not only kills mold, but keeps it from growing back on certain areas.

The team also installed our CleanSpace liner, which insulates crawlspaces from the ground and helps prevent excess moisture. When a crawlspace is kept dry and insulated, mold doesn’t have an opportunity to take over.

Blair R. was disappointed to find a major water issue in the crawl space of the barn on her property. An HVAC leak caused unwanted water in the crawl space. Blair wanted to make sure that the water was not going to lead to mold or a serious structural issue. The water in Blair’s crawl space was not the only problem. There was also building materials like plywood and cinder blocks that would get in the way of work that needed to be done. She decided to contact Master Dry Foundation and Waterproofing Specialists and an appointment was set with specialist Jake Smith.

Much to Blair’s relief, Jake told her that they would be able to remove all of the debris and carry out the proper repairs. The major components of the crawl space repair included installation of drainage matting to collect water in the soil and a CleanSpace liner to seal the crawl space and prevent moisture damage. Finally, a SaniDry dehumidifier was installed to help remove moisture from the crawl space air and keep mold away!

Blair feels confident that the crawl space encapsulation system installed by the experts at Master Dry will not only help keep her Sevierville, TN crawl space dry, it will also help maintain the structural integrity of her barn for many years to come!

Gerald M. of Sevierville, TN was faced with a big problem. Walking around the side and back of his home, he could see several stair-step cracks in the foundation. Entering into his crawl space told the same story – there were gaps big enough for him to fit his fingers in! Severely concerned about the state of his foundation, Gerald did a search for foundation repair contractors in his area, which brought him to the website for Master Dry Foundation and Waterproofing Specialists. He set up an appointment right away with specialist Scott Frazier, who assessed the situation.

Foreman Josh Williams and his crew originally planned on installing nine push piers to lift the foundation and give it the extra support that it needed. As the job progressed, the team decided to replace a few push piers with helical piers that worked better for a lighter-weight section of the house. All in all, the piers were able to reach down far enough in the soil to transfer the weight of the structure to competent soil strata.

At the beginning of the project, the team estimated that the foundation had settled about four inches into the ground. But following the repairs, the huge cracks and gaps were completely brought together and no longer visible! Gerald could see the transformation before his eyes and was so pleased that his home was secure once again. Thanks to Master Dry, Gerald’s home is sitting on solid ground! 

Charles G. of Sevierville, TN knew he needed a new water heater. His old one had leaked everywhere, ruining the bottom of his basement walls and damaging the floor. Because of the amount of water damage in his basement, Charles knew that the source of the problem had to be bigger than just the leaky water heater. He contacted Master Dry Foundation and Waterproofing Specialists, hoping they could fix all his problems. Waterproofing expert Curtis Ward arrived for a free inspection of Charles’s basement.

The homeowners’ fears were confirmed when Curtis examined the space. He saw two different areas spoiled by water leakage – one clearly from the water heater, but one from exterior water seeping in. First, Curtis suggested installing a FloodRing around the new water heater to prevent damage to the basement in the event that another leak occurred. A TrenchDrain system was installed to catch any water seeping in, and a WaterGuard drainage system would direct it to a TripleSafe sump pump for removal from the house. Finally, Curtis suggested BrightWall paneling for the walls. This waterproof material would make the whole basement look clean and attractive. Foreman Michael Geasland and his crew had finished the repairs and set up the new water heater faster than Charles ever imagined!
