United Structural Systems (USS)
Keeping Homes Dry and Stable. We Guarantee Our Best!
We address various foundation-related issues with precision. Our services include stabilizing sloping floors, sealing foundation cracks, and correcting foundation settlements.
Our waterproofing solutions, including efficient drainage systems, powerful dehumidifiers, and reliable sump pumps, are designed to keep your basement dry and damage-free.
Our comprehensive crawl space services include encapsulation, waterproofing, structural floor support, and mold remediation, creating a healthy and secure base for your property.
Mold and mildew thrive in the damp, humid conditions found in crawl spaces. The best way to prevent microbial growth is to encapsulate the crawl space with a vapor barrier and install a dehumidifier.
The goal of sinkhole repair is to stabilize the area and prevent the sinkhole from reappearing. That means finding and eliminating the cause of the sinkhole. If water caused the sinkhole – and it usually does – then we need to get the water under control.
Moisture accumulation, pest infestation, and soil settling can compromise the stability of your home which can lead to damaged beams or joists and uneven floor support. USS is known for having the best structural repair contractors — Contact Us
Sunken, tilted, or cracked concrete detracts from your property’s appearance and presents safety hazards. Our concrete lifting services address these issues head-on, restoring the functionality and safety of your concrete structures.

At United Structural Systems, we bring extensive industry insight to structural repairs, making us a trusted partner for commercial property owners. With years of experience, our team has addressed various structural issues, contributing to the safety and stability of commercial buildings throughout Chattanooga and beyond.
One of the most effective solutions we offer for commercial structural issues is polyurethane foam injection. This technique is a non-invasive, cost-effective method for stabilizing and lifting foundations, addressing uneven floors, sinking concrete, and foundation settlement. Polyurethane foam injection is a practical choice for business owners who need efficient, lasting results with minimal disruption to daily operations.
If your Chattanooga commercial property is experiencing foundation or structural issues, call (423) 320-8883 or message us online to schedule an appointment.
Ensuring the structural integrity of commercial properties is essential for businesses across Chattanooga, especially those in the city's key industries, such as manufacturing, automotive, aerospace, and chemicals. Many of these facilities rely on large concrete structures particularly vulnerable to moisture damage and foundation issues. Without proper maintenance, these issues can compromise the safety and longevity of the building, impacting business operations and financial stability.
Chattanooga's heavy rainfall presents additional challenges for commercial properties. The area experiences significant groundwater pressure and soil erosion due to frequent storms, which can weaken foundations over time. As groundwater builds up, it creates pressure around the foundation, potentially leading to cracks, shifting, or settling. Over time, large structures can destabilize, making the property susceptible to further damage if not promptly addressed.
Structural issues also pose serious safety concerns, which could lead to legal and financial liabilities for business owners. Problems like foundation settlement, cracking, or bowing walls can put employees, tenants, and customers at risk. A failure to maintain the building's structural integrity endangers occupants and could result in costly lawsuits, regulatory fines, or increased insurance premiums.
In addition to safety concerns, structural problems can disrupt daily business operations. Necessary repairs or, in severe cases, structural failures can halt productivity, causing a loss of revenue. These disruptions can impact industries where downtime can be extremely costly, such as manufacturing. Maintaining the structural integrity of your property allows your business to run smoothly, avoiding unnecessary interruptions.
At no additional charge, we offer transferable lifetime warranties on our foundation repair and waterproofing services.
Polyurethane foam injection is an advanced, non-invasive method designed to help lift and stabilize the foundations of commercial properties.
The process involves injecting a two-part polyurethane foam mixture beneath the concrete slab. Once injected, the foam expands to fill voids and gaps in the soil, helping stabilize the ground beneath the foundation. As the foam rises, it lifts the concrete slab back to an optimal level, helping provide a strong foundation. Within minutes, the foam hardens and cures, forming a durable and long-lasting support system that helps prevent future settling or shifting.
Polyurethane foam injection offers a versatile and highly effective solution for various structural concrete issues that commercial properties commonly face. Its unique properties make it ideal for small-scale repairs and more extensive stabilization efforts, helping businesses maintain the integrity of their buildings while minimizing operational disruptions.
Some of the key applications where polyurethane foam injection proves most beneficial include:
At United Structural Systems, we recognize that no two buildings are alike. That's why we take a personalized approach to every project.

We then develop customized repair plans to address immediate issues and contribute to the building's long-term stability. Whether it's foundation settling, crack repair, or soil stabilization, we can provide targeted solutions to meet the specific needs of your property.
