Before & After Photos

A homeowner in Fort Oglethorpe, GA, a busy couple with young children, contacted Master Services after noticing a serious settlement issue in a smaller section of their home. The corner of this area developed a stair step crack measuring over 2 inches wide, causing major concerns about the home's stability.

Our Master Services home inspector quickly recommended immediate action, fearing the structure could collapse without prompt intervention. To address the problem, our team installed six Helical Piers, transferring the weight of the home to more stable soil. Through careful and precise work, we were able to almost completely close the gap, restoring both stability and peace of mind for the homeowners.

Thanks to Master Services, this family can now rest easy, knowing their home is secure for the long term!

The Master Services team visited a home in Hixson, TN that was having some concrete settlement issues. Over time, rain and extremes in temperature will cause the soil beneath concrete to shrink, swell, or wash away completely. The team injected this sidewalk with our amazing PolyLyft, which raises slabs to an even position.

In Hixson, TN, a resident reached out to Master Services seeking improvements for their crawlspace support. Our experienced team conducted a thorough evaluation, identifying specific areas in need of reinforcement. To effectively address this issue, we opted for the installation of five Smart Jacks, specially designed for compact spaces. These specialized jacks provide robust support for weakened crawlspace beams, offering a durable solution for sagging floors. Notably, Smart Jacks are highly adjustable and adaptable to accommodate various crawlspace needs.

A large building in Hixson, TN exhibited visible cracks in its exterior walls and window frames, indicating foundation settling. Our inspector quickly identified the root cause: seasonal changes caused the surrounding soil to expand and contract, exerting pressure on the foundation over time. To address this issue, our team installed several helical piers beneath the cement footing to anchor the foundation securely to stable ground. These piers, installed with precision using a steel bracket, ensure long-term stabilization, providing stability for years to come.

In Soddy-Daisy, TN, a homeowner contacted Master Services regarding cracks discovered in the walls of their crawlspace. After a thorough foundation assessment, our Home inspector attributed these cracks to soil erosion, specifically due to the sandy soil composition. The settling of the concrete slab supporting the house was a result of natural contraction in the sandy soil. This settling issue posed a potential risk to the overall structural integrity of the house.

To prevent further damage, we proposed the installation of helical piers. These piers are specifically designed to provide robust foundation reinforcement, especially effective within the local terrain. By implementing these helical piers, Master Services not only reinstated the homeowner's confidence but also ensured long-term stability and protection for their property.
