Photo Album: Woodwork Restores Homes Integrity in Bishopville, SC
Dan A. is a homeowner in Bishopville, SC. Dan, over the past few years, has noticed that his floors have begun to sag and the support he used to feel was no longer there. Dan is in the middle of renovating his house so he can turn it into a home office for his company. However, with the sagging floors and lack of support his floor offers, it would be hazardous to him and his home if he made to many changes on unstable floors. Knowing this Dan decided to call someone to repair his floors and preserve the structural integrity of his home before he started. He decided to call Cantey Foundation Specialists for a free inspection. Specialists Ryan Holloway came out to Dan's home and completed the inspection. Afterward, Ryan explained that Dan's home had a major structural problem. Dan's floor joist had rotted and was compromising the integrity of the floor. Team Leader Matt, Team Member Nick, and Team Member David came out to Dan's home and efficiently replaced the wood joist and reinstated the floors integrity. After the work, Dan was so happy to be able to safely walk along his floors again. Now Dan can begin his renovations thanks to Cantey.
