Master Services Before & After Photos

In Harriman, TN, the owner of a charming red-brick home perched on a scenic hillside grew concerned upon noticing a pronounced stair-step crack in the walls. After he reached out to Master Services, our home inspector confirmed that the stair-step cracks, especially visible on one side of the house, were the result of shifting soils in the red clay typical of East Tennessee. Recognizing the need for a permanent fix, the homeowner agreed to the solution we proposed, reinforcing the house foundation.

Our team recommended and installed five Helical Piers to stabilize the settling foundation. These piers function like large screws, drilling through the clay-rich soil until they reach a firm, load-bearing layer underground. Once in place, we carefully raised the foundation to the desired level, restoring the home’s structural integrity. Thanks to this proven system, the homeowner can now enjoy peace of mind, knowing the red-brick house is secure, level, and ready to stand the test of time.

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.

The Master Services installation team successfully addressed a bowed foundation wall problem in Monterey, TN, utilizing Wall Plate Anchors. Cracks had emerged on the wall due to prolonged exposure to excessive moisture from hydrostatic pressure caused by the nearby terrain. The application of Wall Plate Anchors effectively stabilized the wall by securely connecting it to the stable soil in its vicinity, offering essential reinforcement to the entire structure of the house. This procedure was executed with efficiency, resulting in minimal disturbance to both the interior and exterior of the property.
