The Master Services installation team successfully addressed a bowed foundation wall issue in Oliver Springs, TN using Wall Plate Anchors. Over time, the wall had developed cracks due to excessive moisture from nearby terrain, with some areas showing eroded plaster revealing the bricks underneath. The homeowner, who had recently purchased the property, sought a permanent solution for this spacious area, planning to convert it into additional living space.
By installing Wall Plate Anchors, the wall was stabilized by connecting it to the stable surrounding soil, providing extra support to the overall structure of the house. The procedure was efficiently conducted, with minimal disruption to both the interior and exterior of the property.
Our crew at Master Services visited a home in Oak Ridge, TN to assess a basement wall that required additional reinforcement. To rectify the issue, we installed our Carbon Fiber Wall Armor system. The carbon fiber straps are as strong as steel, but without the need for drilling or heavy equipment during installation. Moreover, once the repair is completed, it can be easily concealed.
In Oak Ridge, TN, the owner of a large building reached out to Master Services due to concerns about noticeable sinking in their foundation wall. After conducting a thorough foundation assessment, our team determined that soil erosion was the underlying cause of this issue. The cement slab supporting the house was subsiding due to the contraction of clay soil, which is a common problem in this specific area of Tennessee. Failing to address this issue could potentially compromise the overall structural integrity of the building.
To prevent further deterioration, we recommended the installation of helical piers. These piers are specifically designed to provide substantial foundation reinforcement, particularly within the local clay terrain. By implementing these helical piers, Master Services ensured lasting stability and safeguarded the building against further sinking and damage.
Recently, the Master Services team made their way to a charming home in Sevierville, TN, located on a steep incline, to assess a structural wall that had been impacted. The reason for the damage appeared to be due to hydrostatic pressure from the exterior. The team, in order to repair the issue, utilized their wall plate anchor system which uses the surrounding soil's stability to prevent further damage and secure the walls.
A cabin rental company in Sevierville, TN contacted Master Services concerning a soil settling problem. The cabin, built on a steep hill, experienced downhill collapse over time. To address this issue, our team skillfully installed helical piers to reinforce the foundation, ensuring long-term stability and preventing further settling problems. Additionally, we utilized Poly-Lift to inject the sidewalk slab, providing both lifting and long-term support. This solution is well-suited for the clay-rich soil in the area and offers additional support. We accomplished this without any disruptive measures and within a reasonable timeframe.
