Wall Plate Anchors reinforced a foundation wall in Strawberry Plains, TN

In Strawberry Plains, TN, Mark had been using his large basement as a garage when he noticed a troubling horizontal crack forming along one of the walls. As the crack grew over time, he began to worry about the long-term stability of his home and knew he needed a lasting solution. Concerned about the structural integrity of his house, Mark decided to call Master Services for help. Our home inspector quickly assessed the situation and confirmed that the wall was bowing due to hydrostatic pressure caused by excessive moisture from the nearby terrain.

Mark didn't hesitate to schedule the job, and in just one day, our crew arrived to restore the wall. They installed a wall vapor barrier to manage moisture, followed by several Wall Plate Anchors to stabilize the structure. The anchors connected the wall to the surrounding stable soil, effectively reinforcing it and preventing further bowing. The installation was efficient, causing minimal disruption to both the inside and outside of the property. Mark was relieved and satisfied, knowing his basement—and his home—was now safe and secure.

Over several months, they observed noticeable sagging, which made traversing the floors feel precarious.

Upon arranging an inspection, our expert home inspector examined the property and pinpointed the root of the problem in the sprawling basement. The homeowner had envisioned transforming this expansive space into an additional living area, but this plan was thwarted when the floors began to sag due to warped joists and settling.
