Foundation Repair in Powell, Tennessee
Challenge
Ken, a homeowner in Powell, Tennessee, began noticing stair step cracking forming on the brick exterior of his home. These cracks are often warning signs of foundation settlement, which is a serious issue that can compromise a home's structural integrity if left untreated. Ken knew he needed a long term solution and reached out to Master Services to help.
Upon inspection, our team confirmed that one corner of the home was indeed settling. The shifting soil beneath the foundation had caused movement, which led to visible damage along the brickwork. Ken was understandably concerned about the safety of his home and the potential of it getting worse.
Solution
To stabilize the structure, our crew installed foundation piers beneath the settling portion of the home. The job required excavation, but our team took extra care to protect the surrounding yard. We carefully worked around existing plants and trees, and made sure the site remained tidy throughout the process.
After securely installing the piers, our team ensured the area was restored to its original appearance as best as possible. Despite the depth and complexity of the work, the results were clean, professional and effective. The house was now stabilized, and the potential for future settlement was finally addressed.
Ken was very pleased with the outcome. He praised the professionalism of the crew, their attention to detail and their respect for his property. With the foundation now stabilized and the cracks no longer progressing, he can feel confident knowing he has long term security in his home.
