Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

This stucco wall in Knoxville, TN cracked due to foundation failure, resulting in "stair step cracks." To repair it, Master Services installed Helical Piers to stabilize the foundation. To do this, the team screwed steel piers deep into the soil below the home. The piers are strategically placed around the home and in the earth with a steel foundation bracket which connects the piers to the home's footing. These piers and brackets will hold the weight of the home securely due to the more resilient soil or bedrock deeper in the ground. While it can be difficult to close the cracks perfectly in a case like this, the team was able to restore this wall easily and cleanly. 

A Knoxville homeowner contacted us after noticing sagging floors and concerns about structural support in their crawl space. Our inspection revealed that the space was relying on aging concrete block piers with no supplemental reinforcement. To restore safety and stability, we installed our SmartJack® system — giving the home the structural support it needs from the ground up. The crawl space featured basic concrete block supports with no adjustable reinforcement. Sagging ductwork and signs of settling floors were beginning to affect the home above. SmartJack® support posts were installed throughout the crawl space to lift and stabilize weakened areas. This permanent solution protects against future settling and ensures the home is safely supported for years to come.

Our team was dispatched to evaluate a prominent commercial establishment in Knoxville, TN, seeking assistance in reinforcing its basement structure. After careful analysis, we recommended the implementation of our innovative Carbon Fiber Wall Armor system to address the issue of hydrostatic pressure on the walls. These carbon fiber straps possess remarkable strength, rivaling that of steel, and boast the advantage of a non-intrusive installation process, eliminating the need for drilling or heavy machinery. Furthermore, once the repairs are completed, they can be discreetly concealed, maintaining the aesthetic appeal of the premises. With the Carbon Fiber Wall Armor system in place, the basement of the business building in Knoxville, TN is now fortified against potential structural challenges.

Through the process of "slab jacking" Master Services can actually raise your concrete driveway or basement floor back to its original position. This process is usually a fraction of the cost of pouring a new slab or driveway!

A homeowner in Knoxville, TN contacted Master Services regarding concerns about cracks appearing on their support walls. Upon assessing the foundation's condition, our team determined 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, specifically designed to provide significant reinforcement for the foundation, especially in the local clay terrain. By implementing these helical piers, Master Services not only restored the homeowner's confidence but also ensured long-term stability and security for their property.
