Before & After Photos

In Hixson, TN, this crawl space was damp, cluttered, and filled with failing insulation. The exposed block walls and debris created ongoing moisture issues and poor air quality inside the home.

Our team transformed the space with a CleanSpace® encapsulation system (1,086 sq ft), creating a durable vapor barrier to keep moisture out. We removed old insulation and debris, then installed a SaniDry™ Sedona dehumidifier with intake and exhaust duct kits to keep humidity under control. For added convenience and safety, we included a condensate pump, new electrical outlet, and crawl space lighting with a switch. We also sealed nine vents and wrapped piers to complete the encapsulation, giving the crawl space lasting protection.

The result is a clean, bright, and healthy crawl space that improves air quality, energy efficiency, and long-term home stability.

A homeowner in Hixson, TN reached out to Master Services after noticing musty odors and signs of moisture under their home. The crawl space had torn and dirty plastic that was doing little to protect against humidity or water vapor. Over time, this kind of environment can cause insulation damage, wood rot, and poor air quality inside the home.

Our team installed the CleanSpace® vapor barrier system, a durable liner that seals off the ground and walls from outside moisture. This bright, reinforced material not only improves the look of the crawl space but also provides lasting protection against mold and humidity. The result is a clean, dry, and energy-efficient space that contributes to a healthier home overall.

During the colder months, this Hixson homeowner began experiencing moisture buildup in their crawl space, a common issue when cooler temperatures trap damp air beneath the home and create ideal conditions for mold, mildew, and eventual wood rot. Before repairs, elevated humidity and existing mold growth were putting the home’s structural components and indoor air quality at risk. Master Foundation & Crawl Space Repair addressed the problem by first removing mold using a professional soda-blasting treatment designed to safely eliminate contamination without damaging the structure. To prevent the issue from returning, our team fully encapsulated the crawl space with a durable CleanSpace® vapor barrier along the floors and walls, sealed vents, wrapped support piers, and installed an EverLast™ crawl space access door to block out cold, damp air. A SaniDry™ Sedona dehumidifier was then installed to actively control moisture levels year-round. After repairs, the crawl space is clean, dry, and protected, giving this home a healthier foundation system and long-term defense against moisture-related damage.

Encapsulation not only protects a crawlspace from moisture and mold, but increases its energy efficiency. Master Services installed our CleanSpace vapor barrier in this crawlspace in Soddy Daisy, TN. 

A homeowner in Soddy Daisy, TN contacted Master Services to enhance the market value of his property for a potential sale. During our inspection, our professionals identified the presence of mold and water infiltration, which could cause harm to the floor beams.
