A homeowner in Bluefield, VA, contacted Master Services regarding a sagging floor in his basement. Upon inspection, our team identified that the primary issue was the poor quality of the supporting wood beams. Over time, mold growth and uneven pressure tend to bow and alter the morphology of the wooden beams. To effectively address this problem, Master Services installed our reliable Smart Jacks system. These specialized jacks are designed to provide robust support for sagging floors, offering a long-term solution, especially when located within a basement. Our crew worked efficiently to minimize disruption to the cement floor.
Over time, concrete naturally hardens, leading to the development of cracks. That's why we were called to assist a home in Bluefield, VA, having issues with its concrete sidewalk. Our home inspector swiftly identified poorly compacted soil beneath the concrete slab as the root cause. To provide a prompt solution, we recommended our innovative PolyLyft method.
PolyLyft is specifically engineered to elevate and level various surfaces, including sunken concrete slabs. This process entails injecting a specially formulated expanding foam beneath the affected area to gently raise the sunken slab back to its original position. Unlike traditional methods like complete concrete replacement, PolyLyft offers a cost-effective and long-lasting solution. Choosing PolyLyft not only saves homeowners time and money but also ensures a durable fix for their concrete sidewalk.
