Foundation Repair Photo Album: Rim Joist Replaced in Campobello, SC
Lawrence B. is a homeowner in Campobello, SC who is having foundation issues. Lawrence is a hands-on kind of guy, so he crawled under his house and noticed what was wrong right away. His floor joists were rotting and deteriorating causing major issues. However, the job seemed too much for Lawrence to handle alone so he called Cantey Foundation Specialists. Specialist Luke Stemple came out to Lawrence's home and confirmed his suspicions. Lawrence asked Luke what his recommendation would be, and Luke explained to him that we could replace the joist with our treated lumber. This would ensure that the foundation issue would be corrected, and it would prevent future rotting issues. Team Leader Matt, Team Member Estevan, and Team Member Jason were quickly dispatched to the home, and they efficiently installed the Rim Joist. Lawrence was very thankful that Cantey was able to help especially because "Matt answered all my questions and walked me through the entire process!"
