The home foundation near Athens, TN was experiencing settlement issues. Soil shifts or erosion can cause this, often resulting in compromised structural integrity.

This implementation ensures the house is stabilized for the foreseeable future.
Master Services received a call regarding a compromised foundation wall in Athens, TN. During our inspection, we identified clear signs of hydrostatic pressure within the garage. After careful consideration, our team chose to implement the Plate anchor wall system as an effective solution. This system offers a non-intrusive alternative to rebuilding or replacing the damaged garage walls. By extending beyond the foundation, the wall anchors rely on the stability of the soil to prevent any further inward bending of the wall. The homeowner expressed their satisfaction with the outcome, specifically mentioning the minimal disruption caused to their yard during the process.
We recently addressed a concrete sidewalk issue in Athens, TN. A homeowner with a relatively new construction house contacted us for assistance. Our experienced team promptly identified the issue as concrete settling, a common occurrence often caused by poor soil compacting, and took care to inject the critical sites without affecting the foundation wall underneath. The PolyLyft process involves injecting a specially formulated expanding foam beneath the affected area, gently raising the sunken slab back to its original position. This approach provides a cost-effective and permanent solution to the problem. By choosing PolyLyft, the homeowner not only saves time and money but also ensures a long-lasting remedy for their concrete sidewalk.
