Before & After Photos

In Corryton, TN, Sara had noticed her sidewalk gradually sinking, with cracks forming over time. Concerned about the safety and appearance of her front porch steps, she reached out to Master Services for help. Our home inspector quickly assessed the situation and determined that poorly compacted soil beneath the concrete was the cause. After discussing solutions, Sara decided to move forward with our PolyLyft method, an innovative approach designed to lift and level sunken concrete.

The installation crew arrived and completed the job in just one day. 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. Sara was thrilled with the fast, efficient work and felt confident that her sidewalk would remain sturdy for years to come.

The team visited a residence near Arthur, TN that needed help with bowing, cracking walls. To provide support, our team used our carbon fiber reinforcement technique, which uses fiber dipped in epoxy to stabilize walls and minimize damage. 

One of our customers was having basement waterproofing done, but she also had some settlement issues around a foundation wall. It was beginning to crack, so we took a look and recommended our carbon fiber reinforcement system. This system involves soaking carbon fiber straps in epoxy, pressing them to the damaged wall, and waiting for the epoxy to cure. Once it does, the wall is provided dependable support for years to come. 

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.

Our team inspected a residence in Seymour, TN, prompted by concerns about deteriorating beams in the crawlspace. The homeowners, having learned about Master Services from their neighbor who had fully encapsulated his crawlspace a few years ago, were keen to address potential issues. Over time, wooden beams can deteriorate and bend, especially when they are not adequately sized to handle the structural load, as was the case here. To tackle this, we implemented our SmartJacks system, a robust and adjustable steel pier. These supports aim to prevent further settling and, in some cases, even restore the house floor to its original position. This solution promptly tackled the issue and offered a long-term remedy for a problem that could have exacerbated over time.
