Cantey Foundation Specialists Before & After Photos

Russell S. has owned his home in Greenville, SC for almost 20 years. He and his wife purchased the house after they got married and have since raised a family. Now that their children have moved out, Russell and his wife have been working on making the home their own. Russell now has office space and his wife has room for her embroidering business. Doing renovations has proven to be a more difficult process than Russell originally anticipated. The contractors are never on time and never complete the job when they say they will. So when Russell noticed a moldy smell coming from the vents he worried he would have to work with yet another difficult contractor. He asked a neighbor for advice and was told how wonderful Cantey Foundation Specialists are. Russell got the number and called into Cantey to make an appointment. System Design Specialist Jerod Tafta was on time for the scheduled appointment and got right to work. After surveying the crawl space and taking some readings, he sat down with Russell. Jerod explained to Russell that the moldy smell was from mold growth that had begun because of the high moisture content in the crawl space. The CleanSpace system was the solution that Jerod suggested for Russell to rid his crawl space of the moisture that was causing issues. The installation would start with drainage matting being placed on the floor of the crawl space to assist all the moisture to flow to the SmartSump. The SmartSump would pump all the excess moisture outside to keep the area underneath the CleanSpace material dry. The CleanSpace material would be installed over the drainage matting, piers, and walls of the crawl space. Then a spray foam adhesive is installed along the edges of the material to secure the bond between the CleanSpace and crawl space. Russell really believed in this solution after getting this information 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. Russell is beyond impressed with Cantey, System Design Specialist Jerod, and the Production crew. He never imagined he could have such a great experience with a contractor.

Jan and Tom S. have lived in Greenville, SC for many years. They recently bought a beautiful home in a subdivision that was close to their grandchildren. Everything was perfect about this home except that Tom noticed some mold in the crawl space when he was moving things down there for storage. Tom wanted to take care of this problem before it eventually got worse. Jan went online and searched for local companies that could help with crawl space repair. They found Cantey Foundation Specialists and gave them a call right away. They were scheduled for an appointment the next week with System Design Specialist Laurence LaBruce. Laurence arrived on time and got right to the inspection after introducing himself. As soon as the inspection was complete, Laurence sat down with Jan and Tom to show them pictures and explain how best Cantey could help them. He suggested Cantey's CleanSpace system which would create a barrier to ward off moisture and pests from the crawl space. The CleanSpace system starts with a liner being installed around the walls and piers. It is then laid across the floor of the crawl space and then secured at the top using spray foam adhesive. This creates a barrier that keeps all of the moisture and pests out. Jan and Tom were impressed and wanted to have the CleanSpace system installed to prevent any other moisture issues. Production Crew Leader Israel Santana, Production Crew Member Stephen Halsall, and Production Crew Member Nick Rish came out and effectively installed the CleanSpace system. Jan and Tom can breathe easy now knowing that mold will never again be an issue in their crawl space.

Here you can see the cracks in this homeowner's bricks. The foundation was settling on the left side of the house. Our call center made an appointment with the owners to meet with our specialist Will who was able to diagnose the problem and come up with the best solution for them to repair the problem. Push piers were installed on the settling side of the house making the home safe and sound.

Estelle M. of Easley, SC inherited her mother's home many years ago, and now Estelle would like to leave the house for the third generation to inherit: her son Tom.  Worried that the front porch is going to fall in, Estelle decided to fix the problem before it became her son Tom's problem.  After seeing Cantey's commercial on TV, Estelle decided to call and receive her free inspection and estimate on her home.  Specialist Nathan Bailey visited a few days later and inspected her home, and he had the solution for her front porch.  He suggested that we connect brackets to the two corners of her front porch, and then drive two helical piers into the ground until it reached steady bedrock.  This would lift the porch back into place, and support it for many generations to come.  Now, Estelle can confidently leave the home to her son without any fears!
