Before & After Photos

The foundation of a charming stone-walled house in Harriman, TN, beautifully situated on a hill, was experiencing settlement due to shifting or eroding soils beneath the structure. The homeowner noticed some cracks forming in the window frames and reached out for help. Our team installed three helical piers, which function like large screws, anchoring the home to the stable surrounding ground. This design works particularly well in the clay-rich terrain of East Tennessee. With this system in place, our crew successfully raised and stabilized the foundation to the desired level, ensuring the home remained secure and level.

In Harriman, TN, the owner of a charming red-brick home perched on a scenic hillside grew concerned upon noticing a pronounced stair-step crack in the walls. After he reached out to Master Services, our home inspector confirmed that the stair-step cracks, especially visible on one side of the house, were the result of shifting soils in the red clay typical of East Tennessee. Recognizing the need for a permanent fix, the homeowner agreed to the solution we proposed, reinforcing the house foundation.

Our team recommended and installed five Helical Piers to stabilize the settling foundation. These piers function like large screws, drilling through the clay-rich soil until they reach a firm, load-bearing layer underground. Once in place, we carefully raised the foundation to the desired level, restoring the home’s structural integrity. Thanks to this proven system, the homeowner can now enjoy peace of mind, knowing the red-brick house is secure, level, and ready to stand the test of time.

Our team at Master Services received a call from a homeowner residing in Cisco, GA who had been dealing with settling problems caused by the clay soil. Upon conducting a thorough inspection of the property, we realized that the foundation was in dire need of immediate attention to prevent further damage and instability.

We determined that the best course of action would be to install helical piers. These piers are perfect for the local terrain as they provide excellent reinforcement to the foundation and offer long-lasting stability. Additionally, they do not cause significant disruptions to the outside yard during the installation process.

By installing these helical piers, we were able to restore the homeowner's peace of mind by ensuring that their property was safe and stable for years to come.
