Before & After Photos

In North Tazewell, VA, a home encountered foundation settlement, prominently displayed by one of its window frames. This issue commonly arises when the ground beneath shifts or erodes over time. To resolve this, the Master Services crew installed helical piers, similar to large screws, to firmly anchor the home to stable ground nearby. We strategically drilled holes and installed three helical piers at key points until achieving the desired stabilization. These devices, connected to the footing with steel brackets, guarantee stability, ensuring the house remains secure for years to come.

A homeowner in North Tazewell, VA, reached out to us for assistance with waterproofing their basement, which was used as additional living space. While there were no cracks, there were clear signs of water intrusion, mold, and other related issues. After conducting a comprehensive evaluation, we recommended the installation of a water collection and redirection system, as hydrostatic pressure is often the underlying cause of such problems.

Our chosen solution was the WaterGuard drainage system, designed to efficiently collect and divert water away from the basement, effectively managing water infiltration. To provide complete protection, we also installed the TripleSafe sump pump, which offers three layers of defense against potential water problems. With these solutions in place, the homeowner's basement is now safeguarded against water-related issues and the potential growth of mold.

Our team visited a church near Sugar Grove, VA that had an excess of water in the basement. Water accumulates in below-grade spaces due to heavy rains, and it will create the right conditions for mold if not remediated. To fix it, our team installed a sump pump system and perimeter drainage system, which keep moisture from building and causing damage. 

Basements are prone to flooding and moisture problems. Water finds its way inside via walls, floors, joints, and cracks. In some cases, moisture will even penetrate through porous concrete and inside the area. To keep water from destroying this Galax, VA basement, the team installed our best sump pump system: the TripleSafe. This system offers three reliable levels of protection, ensuring your basement is kept dry even during power outages.
