A Knoxville homeowner contacted us after noticing sagging floors and concerns about structural support in their crawl space. Our inspection revealed that the space was relying on aging concrete block piers with no supplemental reinforcement. To restore safety and stability, we installed our SmartJack® system — giving the home the structural support it needs from the ground up. The crawl space featured basic concrete block supports with no adjustable reinforcement. Sagging ductwork and signs of settling floors were beginning to affect the home above. SmartJack® support posts were installed throughout the crawl space to lift and stabilize weakened areas. This permanent solution protects against future settling and ensures the home is safely supported for years to come.
Plate anchor wall systems provide an alternative method to the expensive and disruptive task of rebuilding or replacing damaged foundation walls. Our wall anchor system reaches well away from the foundation to use the stability of the soil as an anchor preventing further bowing of the inside wall.

Our team was called to assess a house in Knoxville, TN, where the homeowner expressed concerns about reinforcing the structure of their basement before the fall season. The homeowner had previously attempted to prevent wall bowing by installing wooden beams, but unfortunately, this solution proved ineffective.
After conducting a thorough analysis, we recommended the implementation of our innovative Carbon Fiber Wall Armor system to address the issue of hydrostatic pressure on the walls. These carbon fiber straps exhibit exceptional strength, comparable to steel, yet offer the advantage of a non-intrusive installation process that eliminates the need for drilling or heavy machinery. Additionally, once the repairs are complete, the carbon fiber straps can be discreetly concealed, preserving the aesthetic appeal of the property.
With the Carbon Fiber Wall Armor system in place, the basement is now fortified against potential structural challenges for many years to come. The homeowner can have peace of mind knowing that their basement is well-reinforced and protected.
Our team at Master Services visited a residence in Knoxville, TN to evaluate a basement wall that needed further strengthening. To resolve the problem, we put in place our Carbon Fiber Wall Armor system. The carbon fiber straps are just as sturdy as steel but don't require drilling or bulky equipment during installation. Additionally, after the fix is finished, it can be easily hidden.
In Knoxville, TN, a homeowner contacted Master Services due to concerns about their foundation wall. After our home inspector investigated the home's foundation, our team concluded that soil erosion was the underlying cause of this issue. Neglecting this issue could potentially jeopardize the overall structural integrity of the residence. To prevent further deterioration, we recommended the installation of helical piers, which are specifically designed to offer substantial foundation reinforcement, particularly within the local clay terrain. By implementing these helical piers, Master Services not only restored the homeowner's confidence but also ensured lasting stability and safeguarded their property.
