Our team at Master Services went to a house located near Kodak, TN to inspect a basement wall that had a significant vertical crack. The damage was likely caused by hydrostatic pressure from the outside. To fix the problem, we installed our Carbon Fiber Wall Armor system. The strength of the carbon fiber straps is similar to steel, but it doesn't require drilling or heavy machinery to install. Plus, once the repairs are finished, it can be easily hidden.
A log cabin in Kodak, TN, encountered stability issues with its wooden crawlspace. The wood posts and concrete columns were no longer effectively supporting the sagging living room and kitchen floors of the cabin. High moisture levels in the crawlspace were dampening the wood beams, worsening the problem of sinking floors. Master Services intervened to address the issue by introducing our trusted SmartJacks system, effectively stabilizing the home even within the constraints of a tight space.
A typical home in Kodak, TN suffered from visible exterior wall and window frame cracking, a telltale sign of foundation settling. Our home inspector swiftly pinpointed the cause: soil erosion from heavy rainfall or sudden changes in humidity. To remedy this, our team strategically installed three helical piers to anchor the home securely to stable ground. To dig through the hardened, clay-rich soil, our crew had to use water to soften the terrain before starting the excavation. Installed with precision, these piers ensure the long-term stabilization of the house, providing stability for years to come!
A homeowner in Kodak, TN, contacted Master Services after spotting stair-step cracks forming at the corner near the main entrance of his red brick house. Concerned about potential structural issues, he scheduled an appointment with one of our home inspectors. During the inspection, it was determined that soil settling, caused by fluctuating moisture levels and extreme temperature changes, was the main culprit.
We recommended installing two helical piers beneath the affected corner of the house. These piers reach stable soil deep underground to provide solid support, while minimizing disruption to the soil around the home. Once the installation was complete, the trenches were backfilled and leveled, restoring the area to its original state. The homeowner felt relieved to see the cracks close and had peace of mind knowing his home was now safe and secure for the years ahead.
In Kodak, TN, this homeowner began noticing major cracks and uneven concrete in the garage floor, which led to tripping hazards, structural concerns, and an overall unsightly appearance. Master Services addressed the problem using our Polyurethane Injection process, where a strong yet lightweight polyurethane foam is injected beneath the concrete. This foam expands to lift and level the slabs, filling voids and stabilizing the foundation. After the lift, we sealed the cracks to protect the garage from water intrusion and future damage. The result is a smooth, level, and secure garage floor that looks better and will last for years to come.
