Basement Saved in Laurens, SC
Challenge
Kevin Q. of Laurens, SC called Cantey Foundation Specialists because his home had terrible flooding issues. Kevin's foundation is a concrete slab, and his home is located midway on a hill. The water was supposed to flow underneath his home and continue down hill; however, all the excess water from the recent floodings remained steadfast underneath his foundation. The water then began to seep past the concrete floor of his basement, and it began to flood. After calling Cantey Foundation Specialists, both System Design Specialist James Davis and Sales Manager Luke Stemple visited Kevin to inspect his home and find a solution to his problems.
Solution
After some debate over which kind of drainage would help Kevin best, Cantey decided on sending in Production Crew Foreman Israel Santana and Production Project Manager Sean Hawkes with a game plan of creating a French Drain throughout the interior basement room and installing sump pumps. This insured that the water had better drainage and ability to continue rolling down the hill instead of flooding Kevin's home. The sump pumps also safeguarded any possibility of too much water and possible damage in Kevin's home if a tremendous storm came through the area. With this unique solution, Cantey was able to help Kevin with his flooding issues!
