Before & After Photos

In Tazewell, TN, a homeowner reached out to Master Services regarding a noticeable "ladder crack" on the exterior wall of their house. Our team conducted a thorough examination of the foundation and determined that the cracks were a result of soil subsidence. If left unattended, this issue had the potential to compromise the overall structural integrity of the house. To prevent further deterioration, we recommended the installation of helical piers, which are well-suited for the local clay terrain. These piers are specifically designed to significantly reinforce the foundation, ensuring long-term stability.

A typical home in Kodak, TN suffered from visible exterior wall and window frame cracking, a telltale sign of foundation settling. Our home inspector swiftly pinpointed the cause: soil erosion from heavy rainfall or sudden changes in humidity. To remedy this, our team strategically installed three helical piers to anchor the home securely to stable ground. To dig through the hardened, clay-rich soil, our crew had to use water to soften the terrain before starting the excavation. Installed with precision, these piers ensure the long-term stabilization of the house, providing stability for years to come!

A homeowner in Kodak, TN, contacted Master Services after spotting stair-step cracks forming at the corner near the main entrance of his red brick house. Concerned about potential structural issues, he 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 the main culprit.

We recommended installing two helical piers beneath the affected corner of the house. These piers reach stable soil deep underground to provide solid support, while minimizing disruption to the soil around the home. Once the installation was complete, the trenches were backfilled and leveled, restoring the area to its original state. The homeowner felt relieved to see the cracks close and had peace of mind knowing his home was now safe and secure for the years ahead.

A homeowner in Tazewell, TN was worried about a section of their foundation settling and observed damage on the main floor as well as other anomalies in the area. Our inspection by Master Services concluded that the foundation required extra support. To resolve the problem, we suggested the use of our "Push Pier" system, which aims to permanently stabilize and even out the foundation.
