Reinforcing a foundation wall with wall braces in Kingsport, TN

The Master Services installation team effectively resolved a significant bowed foundation wall problem in Kingsport, TN, which exhibited a sizable horizontal crack. This issue was mitigated using our I-Beam Wall Braces.

 

With the passage of time, the wall had developed cracks attributed to excess moisture from the external terrain. The homeowner was in search of a lasting solution for this spacious area and was particularly interested in reinforcing the garage walls.

 

Our installation of I-Beam Wall Braces stabilized the wall by connecting it to the stable soil in its surroundings, thereby adding substantial support to the overall structural integrity of the house. The entire procedure was executed efficiently, causing minimal disruption to both the interior and exterior of the property.

Push Piers Installation in Kingsport, TN

Our team traveled to Kingsport, TN, to address a home settlement issue. During inspection, our home inspector noted vertical cracks in the crawlspace wall. Due to shifting soils and moisture problems, homes frequently settle, resulting in issues like cracks and stuck doors and windows, as observed in this case. This settlement compromises both the stability and market value of the home. To prevent further damage, our team installed Push piers. These devices utilize their design to secure stable soil beneath the house, offering immediate support and often restoring the house to its original height. Despite the confined space (between 4-5 feet), our skilled crew successfully completed the task.

The push pier system is designed to provide permanent foundation support by transferring the weight of the structure to a stable soil layer. By doing so, it effectively counteracts the settling of the foundation, which helps to prevent further damage to the structure. Our team's implementation of this system successfully resolved the issue, ensuring the long-term stability and safety of the residence.
