An inspector from Master Services was sent to assess a basement in Oliver Springs, TN, where a wall had sustained severe damage from poor water insulation. Following a thorough evaluation, we concluded that external pressure was the probable cause of the damage.
To reinforce the wall, our team utilized the wall plate anchor system. This system employs the stable soil around the wall to prevent further harm and strengthen the primary structure without resorting to invasive and expensive methods.
The Master Services installation team successfully addressed a bowed foundation wall issue in Oliver Springs, TN using Wall Plate Anchors. Over time, the wall had developed cracks due to excessive moisture from nearby terrain, with some areas showing eroded plaster revealing the bricks underneath. The homeowner, who had recently purchased the property, sought a permanent solution for this spacious area, planning to convert it into additional living space.
By installing Wall Plate Anchors, the wall was stabilized by connecting it to the stable surrounding soil, providing extra support to the overall structure of the house. The procedure was efficiently conducted, with minimal disruption to both the interior and exterior of the property.
In Englewood, TN, the Master Services team employed Wall Plate Anchors to repair a wall showing clear signs of water seepage, likely due to external Hydrostatic pressure. By affixing the anchors to solid soil located some distance from the wall, the team strengthened the wall's stability, providing additional structural reinforcement to the house without requiring invasive and disruptive measures on the property. This efficient resolution guarantees durable support and grants customers years of stress-free living!
A homeowner in Loudon, TN contacted Master Services due to concerns about a visible "ladder crack" on the exterior basement wall. After assessing the foundation's condition, our team identified that the cracks were caused by soil subsidence. If left unaddressed, this issue could potentially compromise the overall structural integrity of the house. To prevent further damage, we recommended the installation of helical piers, which are well-suited for the local clay terrain. These piers are specifically designed to reinforce the foundation significantly, ensuring long-term stability.
By implementing the helical piers, Master Services not only restored the homeowner's confidence but also provided them with peace of mind, knowing that their property is now secure and stable for years to come.
Master Services recently responded to concerns about horizontal cracks in a house in Loudon, TN. Our skilled team quickly identified soil settling as the root cause, a common issue in the area. To resolve the problem, we installed four helical piers, which connect the cement footing to stable ground using steel brackets. The piers' unique design effectively grips the clay-rich soil, allowing us to close the cracks and restore stability to the home.
