Helical Pier installed in Corryton, TN

A homeowner in Corryton, TN, reached out to Master Services due to concerns about multiple stair-step cracks that had developed on the exterior walls of their new fireplace. Upon inspection, our team determined that the primary cause of these cracks was the settling of the recently added fireplace, which posed a potential threat to the overall structural integrity of the house.

To avert further damage and stabilize the fireplace, we recommended the installation of helical piers. This solution was particularly suitable, given the prevalent sandy soil in the local area. Helical piers are purpose-designed to significantly reinforce the foundation and ensure long-term stability by anchoring the concrete footing beneath the fireplace to the compacted soil beneath the house.

Sidewalk stabilized in Corryton, TN

Master Services visited a home in Corryton, TN, to install our durable PolyLyft and raise a concrete slab. The homeowner noticed a section of the sidewalk sinking, creating a 3-inch gap that posed a tripping hazard for his kids and had the potential for further sinking. Our home inspector explained that as soils are washed away by rain, it often leads to cracks, uneven concrete, and other problems. Thankfully, our PolyLyft crew identified the critical spots, drilled, and then injected the cement with our PolyLyft foam. This product raises the concrete back to its original position within minutes.

By injecting expanding foam beneath the concrete, they were able to raise the steps back to their original position without the need for costly replacements.

Helical Pier stabilized a foundation in Seymour, TN

In Seymour, TN, a homeowner reached out to Master Services with concerns about some cracks on her garage floor. After our home inspector investigated the house, we determined that the foundation was experiencing settlement, a common issue when soils and the ground beneath a structure shift or erode. To resolve this problem, our team installed helical piers, which resemble large screws and anchor the home securely to the stable surrounding ground. Carefully installed to the required capacities and depth, these piers, connected to the footing with a steel foundation bracket, provide stability and should ensure the house remains stabilized for years to come.

SmartJacks supported a floor in Seymour, TN

A homeowner in Seymour, TN, was growing increasingly worried about the uneven floors in their living room and kitchen. They had noticed sagging areas over the past few months, which made walking on the floors feel unstable. Concerned about the structural integrity of their home, they reached out to Master Services for help.

 

After scheduling an inspection, our home inspector conducted a thorough evaluation and discovered the issue originated in the basement. The wooden beams supporting the floors were no longer providing adequate support due to settling. To address the problem, the inspector recommended installing SmartJacks, a durable and adjustable support system designed to stabilize and lift sagging floors.

 

Our production crew arrived on the scheduled day and worked efficiently to complete the job in a single day. They installed the SmartJacks with precision, ensuring minimal disruption to the cement floor of the basement. By the end of the day, the wooden beams were lifted, restoring the floors above to their original level.

 

The homeowner was relieved to see the transformation and appreciated the crew’s professionalism and attention to detail. With the sagging floors resolved, their home felt stable and secure once again.
