Master Services recently tackled a cracking concrete driveway issue in Andersonville, TN. Our home inspector determined that the cracks were due to concrete hardening, which is common, especially in the summer when high temperatures affect the cement. To fix this, we recommended using PolyLift to raise and stabilize the driveway.
PolyLift is an advanced solution designed to lift and level sunken concrete slabs. The process involves injecting an expanding foam beneath the affected area, gently raising the slab back to its original position. This method is both cost-effective and long-lasting compared to traditional concrete replacement.
After drilling at strategic points, our skilled crew injected the PolyLift and successfully raised the driveway. The result is a stable, smooth surface that will last for years to come.
In Talbott, TN, a homeowner maintained a clean crawlspace and sought our services when noticing sagging or sinking floors. Our home inspector promptly identified the solution: installing SmartJacks beneath the kitchen floor. These SmartJacks effectively raised the wooden beams in the crawlspace, addressing the issue of sagging floors due to settling, even in confined spaces.
The foundation of this home near Talbott, TN experienced settlement, a phenomenon occurring when soils and ground beneath the structure shift or erode. To address this issue, our team installed helical piers, resembling large screws, which anchor the home securely to the stable surrounding ground. These piers are carefully installed to the required capacities and depth, and a steel foundation bracket connects them to the footing. With this system in place, the house should be stabilized for years to come.

Lisa, a long-time resident of Talbott, TN, was growing increasingly concerned about her front porch. It had started sinking noticeably near her home’s entrance, creating an uneven surface and a tripping hazard. With family and friends often stopping by, she knew she had to address the issue to keep everyone safe. After hearing positive feedback about Master Services from a neighbor, Lisa decided to reach out and schedule an inspection.
When our home inspector arrived, he assessed the problem and recommended PolyLyft, a fast and effective solution ideal for situations like Lisa’s. She quickly scheduled the job, eager to have her entryway safe and level again. On installation day, our crew injected PolyLyft into the void beneath the cement slab, which solidified within minutes to stabilize and lift it back to its original position. They also sealed the crack with our Nexus product for added durability. Lisa was thrilled with the results, knowing her porch was now secure and her home safer for everyone.
