Master Services was contacted regarding a compromised foundation wall in Loudon, TN. During our inspection, we observed evident indications of hydrostatic pressure within the garage. After careful consideration, our team decided to employ the Plate anchor wall system as a solution. This system provides a cost-effective and non-intrusive alternative to rebuilding or replacing the damaged garage walls. By extending beyond the foundation, the wall anchors utilize the stability of the soil to prevent any further inward bending of the wall. The homeowner expressed their satisfaction with the outcome, especially noting the minimal disruption to their yard throughout the process.
Master Services recently responded to concerns about horizontal cracks in a house in Loudon, TN. Our skilled team quickly identified soil settling as the root cause, a common issue in the area. To resolve the problem, we installed four helical piers, which connect the cement footing to stable ground using steel brackets. The piers' unique design effectively grips the clay-rich soil, allowing us to close the cracks and restore stability to the home.
In Loudon, TN, our team was called upon to address issues with a previously encapsulated crawlspace. The initial encapsulation, carried out by the home builder using budget materials, had deteriorated over time, leading to tears and the accumulation of water. The primary objective was to prevent water damage, mold growth, decay, unpleasant odors, and the infiltration of pests into the area.
To achieve this, we opted for the trusted CleanSpace® Wall system, renowned for its durability and effectiveness. We carefully affixed this system to the basement walls using secure plastic fasteners, ensuring a robust and secure attachment through precise drilling. The CleanSpace® Wall system not only provided additional storage space but also efficiently managed moisture, effectively preventing the growth of mold.
A property in Loudon, TN showed signs of a seriously bowed retaining wall, raising concerns about the safety of those living in the home. The large horizontal crack across the exterior was caused by ongoing hydrostatic pressure and excessive moisture in the surrounding soil.
To resolve the issue, the Master Services installation team secured the wall with multiple Wall Plate Anchors, effectively transferring the wall’s load to more stable ground. This crucial reinforcement restored stability to the structure and provided peace of mind for the residents. The procedure was carried out efficiently, causing minimal disruption to both the interior and exterior of the property.
