Master Services was contacted regarding a damaged foundation wall issue in Harriman, TN. Upon our inspection, clear signs of hydrostatic pressure were evident, indicating an urgent need for intervention. Following a thorough assessment, our team opted to utilize the Plate Anchor Wall System, which offers a cost-effective and minimally intrusive alternative to rebuilding or replacing compromised foundation walls. This innovative wall anchor system extends beyond the foundation, utilizing the stability of the surrounding soil to prevent any further inward bending of the wall. The homeowner expressed satisfaction with the result, particularly noting the minimal disruption to their yard during the process.
In Harriman, Tennessee, a homeowner contacted us seeking help to waterproof their basement due to the presence of horizontal cracks on the walls. After a thorough evaluation, we recommended the installation of a water collection and redirection system.

To ensure comprehensive protection, we also introduced the TripleSafe sump pump, equipped with three layers of defense against potential water issues. With these combined solutions in place, the homeowner's basement now enjoys robust protection against water-related concerns and the potential development of mold.

The foundation of a charming stone-walled house in Harriman, TN, beautifully situated on a hill, was experiencing settlement due to shifting or eroding soils beneath the structure. The homeowner noticed some cracks forming in the window frames and reached out for help. Our team installed three helical piers, which function like large screws, anchoring the home to the stable surrounding ground. This design works particularly well in the clay-rich terrain of East Tennessee. With this system in place, our crew successfully raised and stabilized the foundation to the desired level, ensuring the home remained secure and level.
The Master Services team recently visited a residence in Monterey, TN to address settlement issues that had affected a large garage floor. Factors like soil erosion and temperature changes can cause concrete to sink and shift, leading to cracks. To tackle this problem, we employed the PolyLyft injection method, which expands and lifts the concrete, providing stability to the entire surface. Thanks to this solution, our client now has a secure platform that meets their stability requirements.
