Before & After Photos

This crawlspace in Dalton, GA was exhibiting signs of settlement, which creates problems in upper levels. These problems include sagging upper floors, stuck doors and windows, cracks, and other problems. To fix it, we installed SmartJacks, which bolster and support sagging beams. With these installed, the crawlspace is supported.

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 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.

In Allardt, TN, a concerned homeowner sought assistance from Master Services regarding their house's foundation. Our experienced team conducted a comprehensive examination of the property's perimeter. Through careful analysis, we determined that the appearance of cracks was a direct consequence of soil subsidence, particularly considering the slope on which the house was situated.

To effectively address the problem and prevent further damage, we proposed the installation of helical piers. These specialized piers are designed to provide robust reinforcement to foundations, specifically tailored for the prevalent clay terrain in the local area.

By implementing these helical piers, the homeowner can establish a solid foundation and ensure long-term stability for their property. This proactive measure fortifies the structure against the adverse effects of soil subsidence, providing peace of mind and safeguarding the integrity of the house for years to come.

A homeowner in Cohutta, GA reached out to Master Services for help with sagging floors in their home. Upon conducting a thorough inspection, our team identified that the root cause of the problem was originating from the crawlspace. It was discovered that over time, the wooden beams in the crawlspace had deteriorated, shifted, and settled due to insufficient sizing and maintenance, resulting in structural issues.

To effectively address this problem, Master Services deployed our trusted Smart Jacks system. These specialized jacks are designed to provide reliable support for sagging floors, offering a durable and long-lasting solution to problems caused by weakened crawlspace beams. One of the advantages of the Smart Jacks system is its flexibility in installation, even in confined spaces where access may be limited, making it a practical choice for homes with space constraints.
