Our experts at Master Services went to a home in Kingsport, TN to assess a basement wall in need of additional support. To fix the issue, we implemented our Carbon Fiber Wall Armor system. The carbon fiber straps are as strong as steel but don't require drilling or large equipment during the installation process. Moreover, once the repair is completed, it can be seamlessly concealed.
In Kingsport, TN, a couple reached out to Master Services regarding concerns about "ladder cracks" on their home's exterior walls. After assessing the foundation, our team determined that soil subsidence was causing these cracks. The cement slab supporting the house was sinking due to the contraction of clay soil, a common issue during the hottest months. If left unattended, this could compromise the overall structural integrity of the residence. To avert further deterioration, we advised the installation of helical piers, specifically engineered to provide substantial foundation reinforcement, particularly in the local clay terrain. Through the implementation of these helical piers, Master Services not only reinstated the homeowner's confidence but also ensured enduring stability and protection for their property.
The Master Services installation team effectively resolved a significant bowed foundation wall problem in Kingsport, TN, which exhibited a sizable horizontal crack. This issue was mitigated using our I-Beam Wall Braces.
With the passage of time, the wall had developed cracks attributed to excess moisture from the external terrain. The homeowner was in search of a lasting solution for this spacious area and was particularly interested in reinforcing the garage walls.
Our installation of I-Beam Wall Braces stabilized the wall by connecting it to the stable soil in its surroundings, thereby adding substantial support to the overall structural integrity of the house. The entire procedure was executed efficiently, causing minimal disruption to both the interior and exterior of the property.
Our team traveled to Kingsport, TN, to address a home settlement issue. During inspection, our home inspector noted vertical cracks in the crawlspace wall. Due to shifting soils and moisture problems, homes frequently settle, resulting in issues like cracks and stuck doors and windows, as observed in this case. This settlement compromises both the stability and market value of the home. To prevent further damage, our team installed Push piers. These devices utilize their design to secure stable soil beneath the house, offering immediate support and often restoring the house to its original height. Despite the confined space (between 4-5 feet), our skilled crew successfully completed the task.
A homeowner from Kodak, TN reached out to Master Services to report some cracks on the exterior wall of their house. Upon inspection, our team noticed irregularities around the perimeter and determined that the foundation was settling around one corner of the residence. To rectify the situation, we utilized our push pier system to reposition and stabilize the house.
The push pier system is designed to provide permanent foundation support by transferring the weight of the structure to a stable soil layer. By doing so, it effectively counteracts the settling of the foundation, which helps to prevent further damage to the structure. Our team's implementation of this system successfully resolved the issue, ensuring the long-term stability and safety of the residence.
