A homeowner in Rogersville, TN contacted Master Services about a soil settlement issue they were experiencing. Over time, they observed visible cracks forming on their window frames. To address this problem effectively, our team skillfully installed helical piers to reinforce the foundation. This solution ensures long-term stability, prevents further settling problems, and is especially suitable for the clay-rich soil in the area, providing additional support. We successfully completed the installation without causing any disruptions and within a reasonable timeframe.
The Master Services installation team resolved a bowed foundation wall issue in Rogersville, TN using Wall Plate Anchors. The wall had developed cracks over time due to excessive moisture resulting from hydrostatic pressure from the nearby terrain. The homeowner, who was utilizing the room as an additional living space, desired a permanent solution to alleviate concerns. By installing Wall Plate Anchors, the wall was stabilized by connecting it to the stable soil in its surroundings, providing added support to the overall structure of the house. The procedure was performed efficiently, with minimal disruption to both the interior and exterior of the property.
Master Services headed to a home near Surgoinsville, TN to check out a damaged basement wall. Walls often buckle, crack, and bow due to hydrostatic pressure from the outside. To fix this home, our team installed our wall plate anchor system, which depends on strong surrounding soil to halt damage and support walls.
Master Services recently responded to a homeowner in Appalachia, VA, who was worried about large cracks forming in the exterior brick walls of their house. Concerned about the safety and structural integrity of their home, they contacted us for help. Our home inspector quickly diagnosed the issue as soil settling, a common problem in the region.
After providing a free estimate and scheduling the project, our production crew got to work. They dug a small trench around the building and installed several helical piers. These piers connect the concrete footing to stable ground through steel brackets, ensuring a secure foundation. The piers' unique design grips the clay-rich soil effectively, allowing us to close the cracks and restore the home’s stability.
Thanks to this solution, the homeowner now has peace of mind, knowing their house is structurally sound and protected from further damage.

The piers will provide long-term stability to the entire structure with minimal disruption to the property's exterior landscape.
