A homeowner from the picturesque Signal Mountain, TN, contacted our home inspector at Master Services regarding persistent efflorescence on one foundation wall—a classic sign of water infiltration. Worried about potential bowing of the wall due to this issue, the homeowner reached out to us. Responding promptly, we dispatched a crew tasked with installing a combination of Wall Plate Anchors and Geo Locks. Over time, excessive moisture from nearby terrain had caused the front wall to shift forward, a result of hydrostatic pressure. Utilizing Wall Plate Anchors, our team stabilized the wall by linking it to the stable surrounding soil, thus improving the overall structural integrity of the residence. Throughout the installation process, we ensured minimal disruption to the exterior yard.
Mary, a retired school teacher in Signal Mountain, TN, began to notice unsettling dips in her living room floor, making the surface uneven and causing doors to jam. Concerned about the structure of her home, she decided it was time to consult Master Services. Our home inspector arrived promptly, conducting a thorough evaluation of the crawlspace and identifying the exact areas where reinforcement was needed.
Eager to restore the floor, Mary quickly scheduled the job. Our crew arrived on time and installed three Smart Jacks at key points beneath the crawlspace. These durable jacks were carefully positioned to stabilize weakened beams and level the floor, with the added flexibility to adjust for future shifts if needed. By the end of the day, Mary was thrilled with the results, relieved to have a secure, even floor once again, and grateful for a solution she could count on for the long run.
Our team visited a home in Wildwood, GA to check out a bowing retaining wall. The condition of the wall had been worsening for months, leaving the homeowner concerned about collapse. Our team provided stabilization by installing our wall plate anchor system, which uses strong surrounding soils to force walls back to their upright position.
The installation team from Master Services effectively resolved a problem with a bowing foundation wall in Crossville, TN using Wall Plate Anchors. Over time, this wall had developed cracks due to excess moisture from the nearby terrain, and in some places, the plaster had eroded, revealing the bricks beneath. The homeowner, who had recently bought the property, was looking for a lasting solution to this large area and had plans to convert it into additional living space.
With the installation of Wall Plate Anchors, the wall was stabilized by connecting it to the stable soil in the surrounding area, providing extra support to the house's overall structure. The process was carried out efficiently, causing minimal disruption to both the interior and exterior of the property.
Master Service was called to deal with a problem involving a damaged foundation wall in Crossville, TN. During our inspection, we observed visible indications of hydrostatic pressure and recognized the immediate need for intervention. After careful consideration, our team decided to employ the Plate anchor wall system, which presents a less costly and less intrusive solution to rebuilding or replacing damaged foundation walls. Our wall anchor system extends well beyond the foundation, utilizing the soil's stability as a support to prevent any further inward bending of the wall. The homeowner was pleased with the outcome, particularly since we were able to accomplish the task with minimal disruption to their yard.
