Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

This Charleston home had a frightening crawl space when Cantey first layed eyes on it.  Years of stagnant water allowed living organisms to prosper throughout the wooden beams and piers.  The insulation had crumbled and fallen under such humid conditions.  Cantey encapsulated the whole basement, and installed a sump pump to ensure that any additional water would drain out of the crawl space.  This decreased the humidity and practically eliminated the production of mold.  Susan G. is now worry free about her crawl space!

Customer Ralph E. of Charleston, SC was unsure as to why his floors were unlevel and squeaky; after searching on Google for answers, he stumbled upon CanteyCanFixIt.com and decided to get a free estimate.  When System Design Specialist Grayson Forehand inspected his home, he told Ralph that the cause of his sloping floors were because of settling crawl space support posts, which in this case were cement block posts.  Cantey's recommendation?  Replace the old heavy cement posts with our strong, durable, and adjustable SmartJacks!  Production Crew Foreman and Service Manager Trey Dukes not only lifted Ralph's floor back into place, but he also will no longer have to worry about his floor settling again!

Audrey R. is a homeowner in Charleston, SC who has had some issues with her walls cracking. The main issue is the wall between the kitchen and the dinning room. She is worried that her home might be settling since that is a big issue around where she lives. After hearing about Cantey Foundation Specialists from a friend she decides to give us a call. Specialist Kendall Moore went to Audrey's home for a free inspection and found that her suspicions are correct, the home is settling. Kendall explains that Cantey's patented Smart Jack technology is the solution she needs. Smart Jacks act as the support that your home needs and that your stone piers may not provide anymore. Smart Jacks are built on a 2x2x2 hole filled with stone in order to displaces that weight caused by the home and decrease settling. Team Leader Dallas D. and Team Member Dallas E. quickly came to Aubrey's rescue and installed her Smart Jacks. This ensured Aubrey that her home's wall would be stable and prevent further cracking. Aubrey said she was pleased with the work done and was happy that Cantey did the job right.

Jerry S. of Isle of Palms, SC wanted to sell his home in the next few months, but he knew he couldn't achieve this without fixing the retaining wall. Because the heavy soil was constantly pushing against the wall, the retaining wall had bowed and moved over the past few years.  After hearing about Cantey on the radio, Jerry called to set up a free estimate and inspection.

After his inspection, System Design Specialist Kendall Moore explained to Jerry that Cantey's patented GeoLock Wall Anchors would attach to the outside of the wall and connect to a bracket that could be tightened in order to correct the bowing retaining wall.  Knowing this was the best solution, Jerry hired Cantey to complete the work.  Jerry said in his testimonial that, "the crew worked efficiently and quickly to get the job finished."  

Cantey Foundation Specialists Team Members recently restored this wall into it's original position in a Shaw AFB, SC home that had been displaced by yeas of foundation settlement.
