Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

Chris H. of Lugoff had a damp and dirty crawlspace that he wanted to clean up before trying to sell his home; Cantey Foundation Specialists had the solution to Chris' problems.  Encapsulating the crawl space assured Chris that he would not only have a clean and presentable space, but he would also have an airtight and mold free foundation.  This new crawlspace added value to Chris' home for an easier sell.  Cantey was happy to find the solution to Chris' problems!

Margaret M. has owned her Lugoff, SC home for quite some time but has finally decided she needs a change. She has always loved her home but she believes it is time to downsize. She no longer needed the space now that her kids have moved out. Margaret decided to get ahead of the game and make sure all would go well with the inspection before she sold the home. First, she wanted to make sure her foundation and crawl space were in good condition. She searched for a local foundation repair company and found Cantey Foundation Specialists. They looked like a trustworthy company with some great reviews plus the inspection was free. System Design Specialist, Scott Townsend arrived to do a thorough inspection of Margaret's home. He found that there were a few places that Margaret did need some extra support. Cantey's SmartJack system could provide the lift and stabilization that her home needed. Soil would be removed at the sites and then filled with engineer fill. A footing is then installed on top of the fill and underneath the steel beam installed above. The SmartJacks are then sized to be secured in place and then tightened. Margaret decided to hire Cantey so that she could sell her home with no issues. Production Team Leader, Aubrey McJunkin, Production Team Member, Oscar Mota, and Production Team Member, Francisco Lopez came out and effectively installed the SmartJack system. Margaret had no trouble selling her home and the new owner loves the fact that there was a transferable warranty with the SmartJack system.

Recently Cantey Foundation Specialists responded to a homeowner in State Park, SC concerned with sagging floors in their kitchen. The System Design Specialists performed a thorough, FREE, inspection and developed a permanent solution that would restore the floor to a level position using Smart Jacks and replacing a supplemental beam. The work was done in March 2023 and the homeowner could not be more pleased. 

Customer Janet B. has owned and raised her family in this Columbia, SC home since 1989.  She moved to North Carolina over the past few years because of work reasons, but she wanted to fix the home now so that she can move back in when she retires.  After researching Cantey Foundation Specialists online, she called to make an appointment for a free estimate. System Design Specialist Jamie Beresford arrived at the house and recommended that Janet utilize our patented Polylevel process, which would lift and stabilize part of her slab foundation.  Jamie also recommended eight of our steel-galvanized Push Piers to stabilize her home. Production Crew Foremen TJ Harden and Ryan Shirley installed the PolyLevel and Push Piers to our high Cantey standard. The cracks are gone and the foundation is now stabilized so that Janet can fully enjoy her home when she retires.

Marshall M. and his wife owned their Columbia home for many years, and they noticed settlement issues becoming worse and worse.  They wanted to fix the issues now to mitigate future problems.  After seeing Cantey Foundation Specialists' advertisement in the local Val-Pak, Marshall called for a free estimate.  System Design Specialist William Yarbrough inspected their home, and he noticed numerous large cracks in the exterior of the home, settlement in the garage, and drainage issues around the home.  Specialist William recommended that Push Piers would be installed to lift and stabilize the exterior of the home, while our patented PolyLevel could lift and stabilize the concrete slab garage.  He also recommended that Cantey install a drainage system around the home to allow rainwater to bypass and continue past the house rather than flooding the home and crawl space.  The Production Crew was the "Dream Team," which consists of three foreman, Dallas Darity, Justin Wheeler, and Junior Tamaya completed the project in a timely manner so that Marshall and his wife can be confident in living in their home for many years to come.
