A local church in Oak Ridge, Tennessee was experiencing significant settlement of its slab foundation, resulting in uneven concrete surfaces and visible signs of structural movement throughout the building. While some foundation settlement can occur naturally over time, excessive movement can lead to cracked concrete, uneven floors, and gaps where walls begin to separate from floors or ceilings. Beyond the structural concerns, these conditions can also create potential safety hazards for building occupants and visitors.
After a detailed inspection, the experts at Master Foundation & Crawl Space Repair developed a comprehensive repair plan to address both the symptoms and the underlying cause of the settlement. To restore the affected concrete surfaces, our team utilized PolyLyft™ concrete lifting to raise and level uneven sections of the slab. To address the source of the problem, helical piers were installed beneath the foundation to stabilize the structure and help prevent additional settlement in the future. By combining foundation stabilization with concrete lifting, the church received a long-term solution designed to improve safety, restore functionality, and provide lasting structural support for years to come.
This concrete slab in Lenoir City, TN shifted due to soil erosion and excessive moisture. To fix it, the crew used PolyLyft to inject holes along the perimeter. As the PolyLyft expanded, it raised the slab to its original position.

Master Services recently addressed an issue with a concrete front porch and a section of the sidewalk that experienced settlement near Jacksboro, TN. The homeowner had noticed these signs for months, and with the sudden temperature change, the cracks became more pronounced. Our experienced team quickly identified the problem as concrete settling, a common occurrence linked to changes in the soil composition beneath the house. We addressed this issue by injecting the necessary areas without affecting the foundation wall underneath.
The PolyLyft process involves injecting a specially formulated expanding foam beneath the affected area, gently raising the sunken slab back to its original position. This approach offers a cost-effective and permanent solution to the problem. By choosing PolyLyft, the homeowner not only saves time and money but also ensures a long-lasting remedy for their concrete sidewalk.
