Master Services Before & After Photos

A retired teacher in Dalton, GA, reached out to Master Services after noticing stair-step cracks forming around the corner of her home. Worried about the safety of her property, she scheduled an appointment with one of our home inspectors. During the inspection, it was determined that soil settling, caused by fluctuating moisture levels and extreme temperature changes, was to blame.

To address the issue and prevent further structural damage, we recommended installing three helical piers beneath the affected corner of the house. These piers would provide much-needed support and stability. Once the installation was complete, the trenches were backfilled and leveled with minimal disruption to the yard. The homeowner was relieved to see the cracks close and felt reassured knowing her home was now safe and secure for the years ahead.

This crawlspace in Dalton, GA was exhibiting signs of settlement, which creates problems in upper levels. These problems include sagging upper floors, stuck doors and windows, cracks, and other problems. To fix it, we installed SmartJacks, which bolster and support sagging beams. With these installed, the crawlspace is supported.

A Master Services home inspector was dispatched to evaluate a cozy log cabin in Dalton, GA, where a basement wall had suffered significant damage after a  recent heavy rainfall. At the end  of a comprehensive assessment, we deduced that the damage was likely due to external pressure.

To fortify the wall, our team employed the wall plate anchor system. This system employs the stable surrounding soil to halt further damage and strengthen the primary structure, without resorting to invasive and more costly procedures.

In Dalton, GA, Master Services recently addressed a concrete sidewalk issue. Over time, concrete naturally hardens, leading to the development of cracks. Our home inspector swiftly identified poorly compacted soil beneath the concrete slab as the root cause. To provide a prompt solution, we recommended our innovative PolyLyft method. PolyLyft is specifically engineered to elevate and level various surfaces, including sunken concrete slabs. This process entails injecting a specially formulated expanding foam beneath the affected area to gently raise the sunken slab back to its original position. Unlike traditional methods like complete concrete replacement, PolyLyft offers a cost-effective and long-lasting solution. Choosing PolyLyft not only saves homeowners time and money but also ensures a durable fix for their concrete sidewalk.

Our team headed to a home near Trenton, GA to check out some sagging beams in the crawlspace. Unfortunately, contractors often use undersized beams during the construction process. Beams also rot, shift, and settle with the passage of time. To fix the problem, we installed our SmartJacks system, which permanently fixes the problem by bolstering the weakening beams.
