Our team went to Sparta, TN, to tackle a home settlement issue. During the inspection, our home inspector discovered horizontal cracks in the basement wall. These cracks, along with problems like stuck doors and windows, are common signs of settlement due to shifting soils and moisture issues, which can affect both the stability and value of the home.
To address the problem, we installed Push Piers, which anchor into stable soil beneath the house to provide immediate support and often restore the home to its original level. Despite the tight working space (only 4-5 feet), our skilled crew managed the job by cutting a section of the cement footing. After installation, we backfilled the hole and cleaned up the area, leaving the site tidy and secure.
The installation team from Master Services fixed a bowed wall in Sweetwater, TN by using Wall Plate Anchors. The wall had developed cracks because of excess moisture caused by hydrostatic pressure from the nearby terrain. These anchors stabilize the wall by connecting it to the stable soil around it, giving extra support to the house's structure.
The installation team from Master Services recently repaired a significantly bowed basement wall in Sweetwater, TN, where the homeowner had converted the basement into a living space. Excess moisture from the surrounding terrain had caused cracks to form in the wall. Our crew dug a small trench near the exterior side of the wall, then installed Wall Plate Anchors to connect the compromised wall to the more stable outside terrain. This approach prevented further movement and helped reinforce the home’s overall structural integrity.
A homeowner residing near Vonore, TN expressed concern regarding some visible damage around an exterior wall. The individual noticed cracks forming along the brick and observed some irregularity in the surrounding area.

In Englewood, TN, the Master Services team employed Wall Plate Anchors to repair a wall showing clear signs of water seepage, likely due to external Hydrostatic pressure. By affixing the anchors to solid soil located some distance from the wall, the team strengthened the wall's stability, providing additional structural reinforcement to the house without requiring invasive and disruptive measures on the property. This efficient resolution guarantees durable support and grants customers years of stress-free living!
