Fixing Home Instability in Farragut, TN
Challenge
In Farragut, TN, a homeowner contacted Master Services after noticing that their home’s structural integrity had been compromised. The basement walls were beginning to bow inward, and visible cracks were spreading across the surface over time. These are common signs of foundation movement and instability caused by shifting soil pressure and natural settling. Without intervention from the Master Services team, the problem would have continued to worsen, potentially leading to serious structural damage and unsafe living conditions. This homeowner needed a dependable, precise, and permanent solution to restore stability to their home.
Solution
After a detailed inspection, the Master Services team recommended the PowerBrace® Wall Repair System to reinforce the cracked foundation walls. Our crew carefully installed four parallel PowerBraces and five perpendicular PowerBraces to provide structural support and evenly distribute pressure across the affected areas. Each steel beam was securely anchored to the floor joists, creating a solution that can be adjusted over time as needed. During installation, the team restored the existing concrete to ensure that our system performed effectively. This process required no excavation, offering the homeowner a quick, non-invasive, and highly efficient way to stabilize and strengthen their foundation.
