Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

This basement wall in a home near Signal Mountain, TN, exhibited signs of bowing, typically indicating that the pressure from water trapped in the surrounding soil was pushing the wall inside the basement. This phenomenon is known as hydrostatic pressure. Concerned about this issue, the homeowner contacted our team for an inspection. Upon examining the bowing wall, we recommended our Power Brace system, which applies pressure to walls to gradually return them to their original position. Our team efficiently halted any further bowing by anchoring the beams to the wooden beams and the concrete footing.

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.

The Master Services installation team successfully addressed a bowed foundation wall problem in Monterey, TN, utilizing Wall Plate Anchors. Cracks had emerged on the wall due to prolonged exposure to excessive moisture from hydrostatic pressure caused by the nearby terrain. The application of Wall Plate Anchors effectively stabilized the wall by securely connecting it to the stable soil in its vicinity, offering essential reinforcement to the entire structure of the house. This procedure was executed with efficiency, resulting in minimal disturbance to both the interior and exterior of the property.

Our team at Master Services responded to a house in Alpine, TN where settling of the front side had become a problem, causing further complications over time. To mitigate the issue and ensure lasting stability, we installed helical piers close to the front steps to reinforce the foundation.
