Clifford S. has lived in his Clover, SC home for 20 years and has decided it is time to sell. After his wife passed last year, he decided it would be best for him to be closer to his children and grandchildren. Before moving, he knew that the concrete wall in his driveway needed to be fixed. It had started to lean and crack which he knew would be the first concern potential buyers would have as they pulled up in the driveway. Clifford received an advertisement in the mail that showcased local companies and one of them was Cantey Foundation Specialists. He decided to call in to see if Cantey could help him find a solution. System Design Specialist Alex Lovette arrived for the scheduled appointment and assessed the situation. Alex found that the best solution would be Cantey's Geo-Lock Anchor system. These wall anchors would be installed on the interior of the wall then a steel rod would be placed through the wall. This rod would anchor the wall using the most competent soil underneath the surface. This anchor system would stabilize the wall and stop the leaning. Production Team Leader Aubrey McJunkin, Production Team Member Francisco Lopez, and Production Team Member Oscar Mota came out and successfully installed the Geo-Lock Anchor system. Clifford is thankful to Cantey for helping him find a solution just in time for him to put his home on the market.
Terry T. was concerned about his front steps. They seemed to be sinking and uneven, causing a tripping hazard for friends and family. Terry called Cantey Foundation Specialists interested in a PolyLevel lift. The Cantey Crew were able to dramatically lift and fix Terry's sidewalk and now his steps and entranceway is safe and inviting.
Terry K. has lived in his Duncan, SC home for about 15 years now. He takes great care of his home because it knows it is his largest investment. He often checks in on his crawl space but this year was different. There seemed to be a high moisture content and mold growth was starting. He had no idea who to call so he decided to search HomeAdvisor for a local company. Terry found Cantey Foundation Specialists and saw the great reviews they had. He called in and was scheduled for an appointment with System Design Specialist Jerod Tafta. Jerod arrived and did a thorough inspection of the crawl space before sitting down with Terry. Jerod found that Terry was right, the moisture content was out of control but Cantey's CleanSpace system would solve this problem. The CleanSpace system would begin with the installation of drainage matting to help moisture flow to a SmartSump. The SmartSump would pump all excess moisture out of the barrier. Then a thick liner of CleanSpace material is installed across the floor, piers, and walls of the crawl space. This creates a strong barrier between the ground and outside away from the crawl space as well as the home above. Terry was confident in the solution that Jerod had planned out and scheduled an installation date. Production Team Leader Israel Santana, Production Team Member Austin Boan, and Production Team Member Zenen Dominguez came out and successfully installed the CleanSpace system. Terry is no longer having any moisture issues and feels like his home is the most protected it has ever been.
This crawlspace had high moisture causing a mildew smell in the home. The homeowners were interested in dehumidifier, vapor barrier, french drains to permanently find a solution to their moisture problems.
