A large building in Hixson, TN exhibited visible cracks in its exterior walls and window frames, indicating foundation settling. Our inspector quickly identified the root cause: seasonal changes caused the surrounding soil to expand and contract, exerting pressure on the foundation over time. To address this issue, our team installed several helical piers beneath the cement footing to anchor the foundation securely to stable ground. These piers, installed with precision using a steel bracket, ensure long-term stabilization, providing stability for years to come.
In Soddy-Daisy, TN, a homeowner contacted Master Services regarding cracks discovered in the walls of their crawlspace. After a thorough foundation assessment, our Home inspector attributed these cracks to soil erosion, specifically due to the sandy soil composition. The settling of the concrete slab supporting the house was a result of natural contraction in the sandy soil. This settling issue posed a potential risk to the overall structural integrity of the house.
To prevent further damage, we proposed the installation of helical piers. These piers are specifically designed to provide robust foundation reinforcement, especially effective within the local terrain. By implementing these helical piers, Master Services not only reinstated the homeowner's confidence but also ensured long-term stability and protection for their property.
The Master Services installation team effectively addressed an emergency with a basement wall in Soddy-Daisy, TN. The homeowner, who had been using the basement as additional living space, noticed a concerning crack on the wall. Recognizing the need for a lasting solution, he sought a method to reinforce the wall.
Our crew successfully installed Wall Plate Anchors to tackle the problem caused by excessive moisture from the nearby terrain, which had led to hydrostatic pressure. Deploying Wall Plate Anchors proved to be the ideal solution. The anchors stabilized the wall by connecting it to the stable surrounding soil, significantly improving the overall structural integrity of the house. The installation process was carried out efficiently, causing minimal disruption to both the interior and exterior of the property.
