A customer in Farragut, TN noticed settlement issues around his property. When a home settles, it can create problems like uneven or springy floors, cracks, tilting chimneys, and more. To prevent these issues, Master Services installed our wall plate anchor system, which relies on strong outside bedrock to stabilize structures.
A resident of New Farragut, TN began observing indications of sinking on his property, such as fissures, doors and windows that would not open or close properly, gaps between the floor and walls, and more. He contacted Master Services for an assessment and during the inspection, our team discovered severe issues of settling. To resolve this, we employed our dependable helical pier system, a method of stabilization which relies on the solid surrounding soil to secure the piers.
In Farragut, Tennessee, a homeowner reached out to Master Services due to concerns about their house's foundation settling on one side. Our home inspector determined that soil erosion, mainly because of the clay soil, was causing this shift in the concrete base. The concrete slab supporting the house was sinking due to the natural shrinkage of the clay soil.
To prevent further issues, we suggested installing helical piers. These piers are specially designed to reinforce the foundation, especially effective in our local terrain. By using these helical piers, Master Services not only reassured the homeowner but also guaranteed the long-term stability and protection of their property.
In Farragut, TN, John, a longtime homeowner, began to notice his front porch separating from the main structure. Over the months, the steps partially detached and gradually sank, creating a noticeable tripping hazard. Concerned that soil erosion beneath the porch was causing the problem, John reached out to Master Services for a professional assessment.
Our skilled inspector arrived, evaluated the situation, and provided a free estimate with a clear plan to fix the porch. Once John approved, our crew scheduled the project and wrapped it up in a single day. They used our PolyLyft system, carefully injecting the material underneath the affected area to lift and stabilize the steps. Now, John’s porch is level and secure, and he’s thrilled to have a safe, welcoming outdoor space again.
