Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

In LaFayette, GA, a home experienced foundation sinking on its front porch, with cracks appearing on the left column. This issue often occurs when the ground beneath shifts or erodes over time. To address this, the Master Services crew installed three helical piers, resembling large screws, to securely anchor the home to stable ground nearby. By strategically drilling holes and installing helical piers at key points, they achieved the desired stabilization. These devices, connected to the footing with steel brackets, ensure the house remains secure for years to come.

A homeowner in LaFayette, GA, contacted Master Services after discovering a long horizontal crack in their basement wall. Used for additional storage, the basement was under constant hydrostatic pressure from the surrounding soil, which had caused part of the wall to bow inward. Concerned about their home's structural stability and planning to eventually convert the basement into a garage, they needed a dependable solution.  

Before beginning work, we asked the homeowner to remove all belongings to create a safe and efficient workspace. During our inspection, we confirmed early signs of wall failure and recommended the PowerBrace™ system. This solution uses durable steel I-beams securely fastened to Geo-Lock anchors outside the basement via a long rod that leverages stable soil to provide immediate stabilization and allows gradual adjustments to restore the wall to its original position.  

Our team completed the project quickly and efficiently with minimal disruption to the property. Now, the homeowner has peace of mind, knowing their basement is stable, secure, and ready for future renovations.   

The installation team from Master Services effectively resolved a problem with a bowing foundation wall in Crossville, TN using Wall Plate Anchors.

The homeowner, who had recently bought the property, was looking for a lasting solution to this large area and had plans to convert it into additional living space.

With the installation of Wall Plate Anchors, the wall was stabilized by connecting it to the stable soil in the surrounding area, providing extra support to the house's overall structure. The process was carried out efficiently, causing minimal disruption to both the interior and exterior of the property.
