This home was experiencing a foundation issue that led to visible settling along the exterior, creating an uneven and unsupported area that could worsen over time if left unaddressed. Before repairs, the foundation showed clear signs of movement and instability, impacting both the structure and surrounding concrete. After our team stepped in, the foundation was properly stabilized and supported, restoring structural integrity and creating a clean, level, and secure finish that helps protect the home from future movement and damage.
Settlement is a big worry for homeowners. Luckily, there are telltale signs that warn of issues with a home's foundation. This home near Bluefield, VA was exhibiting signs of settlement, including stair-step cracks along the brick exterior. Our team corrected the problem by installing helical piers, which are installed along the foundation to provide stabilization.
We were dispatched to inspect a house in Tazewell, VA, in need of additional structural support. After evaluating the situation, our team suggested the installation of our Carbon Fiber Wall Armor system to relieve hydrostatic pressure on the wall. These carbon fiber straps, providing strength comparable to steel, eliminate the need for drilling or heavy machinery during installation. Furthermore, once the repair work is finished, it can be discreetly concealed.
In North Tazewell, VA, a home encountered foundation settlement, prominently displayed by one of its window frames. This issue commonly arises when the ground beneath shifts or erodes over time. To resolve this, the Master Services crew installed helical piers, similar to large screws, to firmly anchor the home to stable ground nearby. We strategically drilled holes and installed three helical piers at key points until achieving the desired stabilization. These devices, connected to the footing with steel brackets, guarantee stability, ensuring the house remains secure for years to come.
Master Services inspected a damaged basement wall at a home near Jewell Ridge, VA. We recommended our Carbon Fiber Reinforcement system, which involves soaking carbon fiber straps in epoxy, then pressing them against the wall. Once the epoxy cures, the straps provide stabilization and support to the wall.
