Basement Waterproofing Before & After Photos

Calvin W. is a homeowner and structural engineer in Columbia, SC. Calvin has always had a passion for engineering and building different kinds of structures. His own home was no exception, he designed his home to be exactly what he wanted. Calvin takes pride in taking care of the home he put so much of himself into. Every year he does repairs or renovates different areas of the home to keep it in top shape. He went down to check on his crawl space and to his dismay found a great deal of moisture. Calvin knew that this moisture was a danger to the structural integrity of his home. In order to keep his home in the perfect condition, Calvin searched for a company that was trusted to waterproof crawl spaces. While watching the morning news before work he saw a commercial for Cantey Foundation Specialists and decided to call in. He was set for an appointment with System Design Specialist Brandon Privette. Specialist Brandon arrived for the scheduled appointment and did a thorough inspection of the crawl space. Brandon finished up his inspection and sat down with Calvin to explain Cantey's CleanSpace system. The CleanSpace system would begin its waterproofing magic with drainage matting that would relieve moisture from the crawl space. A thick liner would be installed along the floor, walls, and posts of the crawl space for a total encapsulation. This CleanSpace liner would then be secured with spray foam adhesive for total waterproofing. This system effectively creates a moisture barrier that protects the crawl space and home above from damage. Production Team Leader Matt Garcia, Production Team Member Nick Riddick, and Production Team Member David Herbert came out and successfully installed the CleanSpace system. Calvin now has the peace of mind that moisture is not going to cause his home harm.

Keith S. is a homeowner who really knows his way around a home. From renovating and repairing, to complete restructure Keith can do it all. However, Keith lacks the knowledge he needed to solve his homes water absorption problem.  His basement walls have been soaking up moisture from the ground and bringing it into his home. After hearing an advertisement on the radio for Cantey Foundation Specialists he decided to give us a call.  Specialist John Adams came out to Keith's home for a free inspection and found that the solution he was looking for was a Sump Pump. Sump Pumps are designed to pump out excess moisture and liquid that could be damaging to your home. Team Leader Aubrey, Team Member Oscar, and Team Member Frank were sent out to Keith's home and installed the Sump Pump for him. Keith was so happy that Cantey was able to help him when he was unable to do it himself. "This isn't the first time I've hired Cantey, I had them fix my retainer wall with wall anchors before. They're a company that I've come to trust to get the job done right."

Elizabeth knew her crawlspace under her home in Lexington, SC was not in very good condition and with summer coming she wanted to be proactive. Cantey crew members completely encapsulated her crawlspace, removed her old insulation, and installed a dehumidifier system with a sealed vent to help keep her home nice and cool this summer. A clean crawlspace and dehumidifier can help save money on energy bills by lowering the amount of water vapor in the air, as wet air takes more time and energy to cool. 

Jerry B. has owned his home in West Columbia, SC for a few years now. He loves his quaint home on its quiet street that makes for his perfect home. Jerry has done several repairs to the home but never thought about the condition of his crawl space. He had a routine check for termites which determined that there were no termites but extensive termite damage to the beams under his home. He called his brother to see what he could do and he recommended Cantey Foundation Specialists. Jerry called Cantey and set up an appointment with System Design Specialist Jamie Beresford. Jamie came out for the scheduled inspection to find that there were quite a few beams that needed to be replaced. Jamie assured Jerry that Cantey often does wood replacement in crawl spaces and could have the damaged areas fixed like new. Production Team Leader Israel Santana, Production Team Member Jonathan Lowder, and Production Team Member Matthew Kelley came out and successfully replaced all the damaged wood. Jerry has a better understanding of his crawl space health and is now doing regular checks to make sure it is in great condition.
