Replacing rotten wood in your crawl space is essential for maintaining a healthy and structurally sound home. This process involves removing the damaged wood, treating the area to prevent future rot, and installing new, pressure-treated lumber to ensure long-lasting stability.
When her tenants moved out, Pauline L. of Goose Creek, SC inspected her rental home for any surface damages, but she found foundation issues instead. While walking throughout the home, she realized that the floors were sagging and unlevel throughout the first floor. After researching online, Pauline called Cantey Foundation Specialist for a free estimate. System Design Specialist Kendall Moore further inspected the home in not only the interior of the home, but also the exterior and crawl space areas. Specialist Kendall suggested to Pauline that she allowed Cantey to install our patented SmartJack solution. Pauline chose Cantey Foundation Specialists because she trusted that we would complete the job correctly and in a timely manner. Production Crew Foreman Sixto Lopez and his crew came out to install twenty-four SmartJacks to lift and stabilize the rental home. Now, Pauline has the confidence to rent to new tenants without the worry of settlement or foundation issues.
Adam H. is a homeowner in Adams Run, SC. Over the past year or so Adam has slowly noticed that his home's floor is getting lower and lower. It has been slowly arcing inward creating a small slope for him and his family. "It's become a real nuisance anymore", Adam said. "At the time I just didn't know what to do with it". Adam likes to get on Facebook and look around from time to time and one day he noticed Cantey Foundation Specialists' Facebook page and decided to give us a call. Specialist Michael Scott came out for a free inspection of Adams home. After the inspection Michael explained to him that the problem was in the wall not the floor. Over time the wall had sunk and due to that pressure on the floor it created a ripple effect which caused his floor to drop in that particular spot and rise in another that Adam hadn't noticed. Team Leader Israel, Team Member Jonathan, and Team Member Austin came out to Adam's home and installed the Smart Jacks. "I couldn't believe it was the wall that was the problem and not the floor, I'm glad I called Cantey because that could have been a real mess", Adam said. Now Adam can go back to enjoying his home once more knowing that Cantey did the job right.
This is a home in North Charleston that had an old vapor barrier that over time came up and now they were noticing dust and musty smells in their home. Much of the air that you breathe in your home comes from your crawl space. They had us come out and replace their vapor barrier and also some of the wood damage that was found as a result of the inspection.
Walter Z. is a homeowner in Charleston, SC who spends plenty of time in his garage fixing and woodworking through many projects. He began to notice a crack forming above his garage door. He attempted to fill it several times, which would hold for a while but eventually get right back to the way it was. His neighbor had used Cantey Foundation Specialists for a similar problem and was happy with the work they did on his home. Walter decided he would give them a call and schedule a day for someone to come out and inspect. System Design Specialist Kendall Moore came out to do a free inspection and estimate. Walter explained to Kendall that his expectation for the project was to just have peace of mind that these cracks would not continue to get worse. Kendall did an inspection of the garage and the areas around it concluding that Walter needed to lift his garage with Cantey's SmartJack system to give his garage lift and stabilization. This would give him lift to fill the current crack and prevent any others from forming. Production Team Leader Sixto Lopez, Production Team Member Jose Lopez, and Production Team Member Estevan Lopez came out to Walter's home and installed the SmartJack system which lifted the garage, effectively filling the worrisome crack. Walter is now satisfied with how his garage is looking and tributes Cantey with restoring his favorite place in his home.
