Crawl Space Encapsulation and RepairCrawl Space Encapsulation

Nobody wants mold and rot in their home, especially considering it causes structural and air quality problems for the entire house.  Any trace of mold or rot is a problem that needs a professional solution, not a DIY or quick fix.  In fact, if ventilation in the crawl space is not executed properly, it will create more problems than are solved.  

At Cantey Foundation Specialists, we use expert, trusted solutions for crawl space repair and encapsulation by utilizing the CleanSpace system.  Depending on your home’s specific needs, we will install a combination of a crawl space vapor barrier, thermal insulation, dehumidifiers, or drainage matting.  At your FREE, no obligation cost estimate, our service expert will assess the needs of your home and determine the necessary course of action.  

If rotted or sagging support joists are your problem, we will install galvanized steel crawl space support jacks.  Your crawl space supports the weight of the floors above, so if that area is compromised, your floors will be too!

CleanSpace Creates a Healthier Home in Sumter, SC

Peter and Theresa F. have owned their home for 26 years. It is the home they raised their children in and where they plan to enjoy their retirement. During a routine termite inspection, they were alerted to the moisture in the crawl space under their home. Previously Peter had gotten beams replaced under the home because they were riddled with wood rot. Peter has allergies and Theresa suggested that they look for a permanent solution that would give them a healthier home. Peter and Theresa noticed a truck in their neighborhood that had a logo advertising Cantey Foundation Specialists. Theresa called in and made an appointment for System Design Specialist Michael Scott to inspect their crawl space. Upon inspection, Michael suggested that Peter and Theresa install Cantey's CleanSpace system. This system would create a barrier between the soil and the crawl space to prevent moisture from damaging the wood around the crawl space. Production Team Leader Israel Santana, Production Team Member Jonathan Lowder, and Production Team Member Dakota Daugherty came out and effectively installed the CleanSpace system. Peter and Theresa now have the peace of mind that their home is healthy and they are too.
