In Jacksboro, TN, a business owner reached out to us concerning a significant issue with one of their properties, a large retail store. The building exhibited multiple cracks, known as "ladder cracks," along with some wall bowing. Upon thorough inspection, our team determined that the entire structure had sunk over two inches, posing a potential threat to its structural integrity. This not only risked economic losses but also posed a safety hazard for customers and employees.
After careful assessment, we recommended the installation of helical piers, specifically designed to address the local clay terrain. These piers provide substantial reinforcement to the foundation, ensuring long-term stability. Our skilled crew successfully installed 22 piers, immediately stabilizing the entire building. We have also marked the outer walls for regular monitoring to prevent any further settling.
Within three days, we secured the entire building, ensuring uninterrupted economic activity for the entire area.
In Jacksboro, TN, a homeowner reached out to Master Services due to concerns about a large stair-step crack on one of their foundation walls that kept widening over time.

The concrete slab supporting the house was sinking due to the natural shrinkage of the clay soil.
To prevent further issues, we recommended the installation of helical piers. These piers are specially designed to reinforce the foundation, especially effective in our local terrain. By using these helical piers, Master Services not only reassured the homeowner but also guaranteed the long-term stability and protection of their property.
