Before & After Photos

Our team visited a home near Ooltewah, TN to inspect a crawlspace in need of additional support. Over time, high humidity and mold growth can compromise the integrity of wooden beams, causing floors to sag. Combined with natural wear and tear, beams can deteriorate, shift, and settle. To address this issue, we applied our SmartJacks system. This solution effectively reinforces weakened beams, even in confined spaces like this particular crawlspace, providing a lasting remedy for the problem.

A homeowner in Collegedale, TN, reached out to Master Services regarding visible cracks underneath the front porch. After a thorough inspection, our home inspector determined that soil shifting, exacerbated by the house being built on a steep hill, was the cause of the cracks. To prevent additional damage and halt further shifting, we recommended the installation of helical piers.

These piers provide robust foundation support, particularly effective in the local clay soil. By opting for helical piers, the homeowner not only gained confidence but also ensured long-term stability and security for their property.

Our team conducted an inspection of a residence in Ooltewah, TN, prompted by concerns about deteriorating beams in the crawlspace. The homeowners had recently purchased the house, knowing they would soon need to address this issue to prevent further damage to the integrity of the house floors. 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 address this issue, our home inspector recommended our SmartJacks system, a robust and adjustable steel pier designed to be installed in tight spaces. These supports aim to prevent further settling and, in some cases, even restore the house floor to its original position. This solution promptly addressed the issue and provided a long-term remedy for a problem that could have worsened over time.

This Signal Mountain, TN homeowner was dismayed to see cracks forming along his concrete pool slab. He called Master Services to raise the slab using PolyLyft. 

This basement wall in a home near Signal Mountain, TN, exhibited signs of bowing, typically indicating that the pressure from water trapped in the surrounding soil was pushing the wall inside the basement. This phenomenon is known as hydrostatic pressure. Concerned about this issue, the homeowner contacted our team for an inspection. Upon examining the bowing wall, we recommended our Power Brace system, which applies pressure to walls to gradually return them to their original position. Our team efficiently halted any further bowing by anchoring the beams to the wooden beams and the concrete footing.
