Master Service received a call regarding an issue with a compromised foundation wall in Abingdon, VA. Upon conducting our inspection, we noticed clear signs of hydrostatic pressure and understood the urgent requirement for intervention. After thoughtful deliberation, our team opted to implement the Plate anchor wall system, which offers a cost-effective and non-intrusive alternative to rebuilding or replacing the damaged foundation walls. This wall anchor system extends beyond the foundation, utilizing the soil's stability as a support to prevent any further inward bending of the wall. The homeowner expressed satisfaction with the outcome, particularly appreciating the minimal disruption to their yard during the process.
Master Services recently responded promptly to address concerns with a front porch in Abingdon, VA. Our highly skilled team quickly identified cracks and sinking in the front porch, a common issue due to soil settling. Fortunately, we efficiently resolved the problem using two helical piers. These devices connect the cement footing to the solid ground under the house via steel brackets. Their unique shape is designed to grip the clay-rich soil effectively.
The Master Services team recently visited a charming home in Abingdon, VA, owned by Sarah, a passionate DIY enthusiast and homeowner. Sarah had been working on various home improvement projects when she noticed alarming cracks forming along one of her crawlspace walls. Concerned about the potential risks and knowing the area’s susceptibility to heavy rains, she decided to call in the experts to address the issue.
Our team conducted a thorough assessment and determined that hydrostatic pressure from the surrounding soil was causing the wall to weaken. To fix the problem, we installed five of our dependable wall plate anchors. This innovative solution utilizes the surrounding stable soil to reinforce and stabilize the wall, preventing further damage and ensuring the home’s safety.
Sarah was impressed by the team’s professionalism and how smoothly the process went. Seeing her wall secured gave her peace of mind, and she expressed her gratitude for the excellent service provided by Master Services.
