Sister Joist Reinforce Home in Batesburg, SC
Challenge
James M.'s home in Batesburg, SC has been having some foundation issues. His home has become unsteady because the floor was rotting, and he was worried about a potential accident causing him or his loved ones to get hurt. James called Cantey Foundation Specialists because he believed that Cantey could provide the most detailed and long term solution. Specialist Jason Hardage went out to James's home, and he explained to him that the best solution would be to replace the rotten wood beams, or joists, underneath his home. Specialist Jason also recommended that Cantey should add sister joist to provide the structural support that James was looking for.
Solution
Replacing the old rotten beams with our treated lumber provides a lasting support structure for the home. Sister Joists add to that support and protection by running along the side of the existing joist and supporting the foundation even more. Production Team Leader Dallas Darity and Production Team Member Junior Tamayo were dispatched to James's home and efficiently worked on his foundation issues. James exclaimed how happy he was that Cantey was able to install replacement joists. Now that Cantey's work is done, James can enjoy a stable home and have peace of mind that the job was done right and with a transferrable warranty.
