Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

In a newly built home near Athens, TN, a homeowner named John noticed unsettling cracks forming at the corner of his garage. Concerned about the potential for structural damage, he contacted Master Services for an inspection. Our team quickly identified that soil erosion had caused the foundation to settle, leading to a noticeable stair-step crack in the garage corner. 

To address the issue, we installed two helical piers—large screw-like supports designed to anchor the home into stable ground, preventing further settling. With the piers in place, the foundation is now secure, giving John peace of mind that his home will remain stable for years to come.

In a newly built home near Athens, TN, positioned on the side of a small hill with red clay soil, a homeowner noticed a troubling crack forming on the first floor. Concerned about the possibility of foundation damage, they reached out to Master Services for an expert assessment. Our inspection revealed that the combination of hillside construction and the clay-rich soil led to foundation settling, which caused the noticeable crack.

To resolve the issue, we installed four helical piers, screw-like supports that stabilize the home by anchoring it to solid ground. This solution prevents further settling, and with the piers in place, the foundation is now secure. The homeowner can rest easy knowing their property is protected against future shifts and will remain stable for years to come.

Master Services received a call regarding a compromised foundation wall in Athens, TN. During our inspection, we identified clear signs of hydrostatic pressure within the garage. After careful consideration, our team chose to implement the Plate anchor wall system as an effective solution. This system offers a non-intrusive alternative to rebuilding or replacing the damaged garage walls. By extending beyond the foundation, the wall anchors rely on the stability of the soil to prevent any further inward bending of the wall. The homeowner expressed their satisfaction with the outcome, specifically mentioning the minimal disruption caused to their yard during the process.

Master Services was summoned to assess the foundation of a commercial building in Harriman, TN due to noticeable cracks on the exterior walls. Our inspection revealed that the foundation was settling under the weight of the glass wall.

To remedy the situation, we proposed our "Push Pier" system, a solution designed to securely stabilize and level the foundation without the need for intrusive and costly structural renovation.

The foundation of a charming stone-walled house in Harriman, TN, beautifully situated on a hill, was experiencing settlement due to shifting or eroding soils beneath the structure. The homeowner noticed some cracks forming in the window frames and reached out for help. Our team installed three helical piers, which function like large screws, anchoring the home to the stable surrounding ground. This design works particularly well in the clay-rich terrain of East Tennessee. With this system in place, our crew successfully raised and stabilized the foundation to the desired level, ensuring the home remained secure and level.
