Before & After Photos

This driveway was cracking. When there's too much rain, it can wash away the soil under concrete. Too little rain, and the clay-based soil will contract and shrink. Both of these extremes can lead to cracked, uneven pavement. To fix the problem, Master Services leveled the concrete slab by injecting it with PolyLyft. 

Master Services visited a home in Knoxville, TN to install our durable PolyLyft and raise a concrete slab. As soils are washed away by rain, it often leads to cracks, uneven concrete, and other problems. Our PolyLyft raises concrete back to its original position. 

Through the use of affordable helical piers, the foundation repair specialists at Master Services were able to alleviate uneven foundation setting problems as seen in the pictures here.  The pictures show how the exterior brick is pulling apart due to the settlement of one side of the home.  The helical piers were installed at set intervals along the side of the foundation that was settling. The piers were attached to the base of the foundation wall, and driven into the ground beneath the foundation, until they contacted strong supporting soils.  Once in contact with this stabilizing support, the piers bear the load of the settling wall or foundation, preventing further settlement or sinking.  The cracks are sometimes closed; but also sometimes simply prevented from further opening or widening.  

Taking care of the problem before it comes severe can save you money down the road. See a list of common causes of foundation damage here.

There was a large "stair step" crack along the brick fascade of this Knoxville, TN home. To fix it, the Master Services team drilled holes into the concrete slab of the porch.  Next, our high-density PolyLyft was injected into the holes. The polyurethane expanded to lift the concrete slab and seal the crack. 

Master Services repaired damaged walls in Maryville, TN using our carbon fiber reinforcement technique. This technique straightens and stabilizes walls, and it easily can be painted over to conceal the work.
