Wall Plate Anchors rescued an indoor swimming pool wall in Church Hill, TN
Challenge
In Church Hill, TN, homeowners Emily and David found themselves dealing with a stressful situation in their indoor swimming pool room. Surrounded by soil on three sides, their pool area began showing troubling signs of distress. Humidity and hydrostatic pressure from the surrounding terrain led to unsightly efflorescence and three concerning cracks on one of the walls. Emily and David, who had planned to host pool parties and invite friends over, were embarrassed by the wall’s appearance and worried about its stability. The cracks and water damage made them anxious about the potential for a collapse, so they decided to seek help from Master Services.
Solution
Our Master Services team promptly stepped in to tackle the problem. We assessed the situation and determined that the instability was caused by the pressure from the surrounding soil. To address this, we decided to install seven Wall Anchors, which would stabilize the wall by anchoring it to the stable soil nearby. Our crew started by carefully excavating the area around the wall, placing each anchor with precision, and connecting them to the indoor wall with metal rods. This method used the soil as a stabilizer to counteract the hydrostatic pressure and reinforce the wall.
The installation was carried out smoothly, causing minimal disruption to the indoor pool room and the exterior of the property. Once the work was complete, Emily and David were relieved to see the wall looking solid and secure. With the efflorescence and cracks addressed, they felt a new sense of confidence and could finally invite friends over to enjoy their pool area without worry. Thanks to Master Services, their indoor swimming pool room was once again a safe and inviting space for gatherings.
