Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Chatsworth, GA was noticing signs of settlement around their home, including cracks in their tile flooring. Cracks are signs of settlement, which occur when soils beneath the home are washed away or compressed by weight. To stop the damage, our team installed helical piers, which stabilize the structure and keep it from shifting further. 

A retired teacher in Dalton, GA, reached out to Master Services after noticing stair-step cracks forming around the corner of her home. Worried about the safety of her property, she scheduled an appointment with one of our home inspectors. During the inspection, it was determined that soil settling, caused by fluctuating moisture levels and extreme temperature changes, was to blame.

To address the issue and prevent further structural damage, we recommended installing three helical piers beneath the affected corner of the house. These piers would provide much-needed support and stability. Once the installation was complete, the trenches were backfilled and leveled with minimal disruption to the yard. The homeowner was relieved to see the cracks close and felt reassured knowing her home was now safe and secure for the years ahead.

A Master Services home inspector was dispatched to evaluate a cozy log cabin in Dalton, GA, where a basement wall had suffered significant damage after a  recent heavy rainfall. At the end  of a comprehensive assessment, we deduced that the damage was likely due to external pressure.

To fortify the wall, our team employed the wall plate anchor system. This system employs the stable surrounding soil to halt further damage and strengthen the primary structure, without resorting to invasive and more costly procedures.

A young resident of Rock Spring, GA, sought assistance with floor settlement issues beneath their kitchen counter. Upon scheduling an appointment with one of Master Services' home inspectors, a thorough assessment was conducted. The inspector identified specific areas in the crawlspace needing reinforcement. To address this effectively, our team installed six Smart Jacks, specially designed for such confined spaces. These specialized jacks provide reliable support to weakened crawlspace beams and are resistant to rust, ensuring long-lasting stability.

This crawlspace located in Rocky Face, GA, displayed indications of settlement, leading to issues in the upper floors such as sagging beams, jammed doors and windows, and cracks. To address these issues, we proposed the installation of our SmartJacks, designed to reinforce and stabilize sagging beams. Furthermore, we encapsulated the crawlspace using our Clean Space vapor barrier and complemented it with our Sedona Dehumidifier. With these measures implemented, the crawlspace is now dry and shielded from further deterioration.
