The Master Services team successfully restored a retaining wall in Loudon, TN.

A property in Loudon, TN showed signs of a seriously bowed retaining wall, raising concerns about the safety of those living in the home. The large horizontal crack across the exterior was caused by ongoing hydrostatic pressure and excessive moisture in the surrounding soil.

 

To resolve the issue, the Master Services installation team secured the wall with multiple Wall Plate Anchors, effectively transferring the wall’s load to more stable ground. This crucial reinforcement restored stability to the structure and provided peace of mind for the residents. The procedure was carried out efficiently, causing minimal disruption to both the interior and exterior of the property.

SmartJacks support installed in Tallassee, TN

A previous client of Master Services, residing in Tallassee, TN, reached out to us for assistance with sagging floors. After having their crawlspace completely encapsulated by us the previous year, they now needed help in restoring the height of their kitchen floor. Our team conducted a thorough inspection, identifying the areas in the crawlspace requiring support. The challenge here was the limited height in these spots.

To address this challenge, we employed our Smart Jacks system, specifically designed for tight and compact spaces. These jacks offer robust support for weakened crawlspace beams, even in challenging conditions with only 25 inches of clearance. This solution was ideal because it not only provided immediate support but could also be adjusted over time if needed.

Our Sedona dehumidifier was recommended for its rapid ability to eliminate moisture from the wooden floors and ensure that mold growth would be prevented in the future.

Push Piers stabilized a basement wall in Sparta, TN

Our team went to Sparta, TN, to tackle a home settlement issue. During the inspection, our home inspector discovered horizontal cracks in the basement wall. These cracks, along with problems like stuck doors and windows, are common signs of settlement due to shifting soils and moisture issues, which can affect both the stability and value of the home. 

To address the problem, we installed Push Piers, which anchor into stable soil beneath the house to provide immediate support and often restore the home to its original level. Despite the tight working space (only 4-5 feet), our skilled crew managed the job by cutting a section of the cement footing. After installation, we backfilled the hole and cleaned up the area, leaving the site tidy and secure.
