Gene and Melissa R. are homeowners in Liberty, SC and have been for a while. They currently plan to stay in their home as they still have two teenagers at home. Having two young boys is not easy as homeowners that want to take care of their home. Gene and Melissa have had to do many repairs to their home due to their rough and tumble boys. When the bathroom door would not shut, Gene and Melissa imagined it was just more damage that their children had caused. They had someone come out and look at it that told them that the problem was actually foundation related because the floor was sagging. While watching the news, they saw an advertisement for Cantey Foundation Specialists and decided to give them a call for a free inspection. System Design Specialist Ryan Holloway arrived for the appointment and did an inspection of the crawl space and problem area. Ryan found that Gene and Melissa just needed some extra support which Cantey's patented SmartJack system could provide. The SmartJack system installation would start with soil being removed at the sites for the SmartJacks. These holes would then be filled with tightly compact crushed stone that would be the solid ground for the footing. The SmartJack would be specifically cut for their crawl space and attached to the footing as well as the beam above. Once the SmartJack is secure, it is then adjusted to create lift and stabilization for the floor above. Gene and Melissa felt like this would be a lasting solution and scheduled the installation. Production Team Leader Israel Santana, Production Team Member Jonathan Lowder, and Production Team Member Austin Boan came out and effectively installed the SmartJack system. Gene and Melissa are back to making sure their boys do not tear up the rest of the house but with the peace of mind that their foundation is strong.
Chuck H. is a homeowner in Roebuck, SC who noticed that his house was starting to settle. Knowing that this was going to be an eventual problem, Chuck wanted to fix the problem now before it got worse. Chuck called Cantey Foundation Specialists, and within a few days Specialist Jerod Tafta came out to Chuck's home for the free inspection. Specialist Jerod explained to Chuck how SmartJacks could lift and stabilize his floors and make all the difference in his home. Cantey's Lifetime Warranty SmartJack solution was perfect for Chuck's settling house issues. Chuck says he bought the SmartJacks because, "I believe in your product more than the solution Ram Jack tried to give me." Production Team Leader Dallas Darity, Team Member Austin Strong, and Team Member Junior Tamayo came to Chuck's house and installed eight Smart Jacks to stop and reverse the settling done to his home. Now, Chuck can rest easy knowing he stopped the problem before it caused too much damage.
Dianne S. moved into her home in Roebuck, SC many years ago with her husband. A year ago, her husband passed away and she was left to take up the responsibility of taking care of the home. The floors had been unlevel for quite a while and since Dianne was getting older, she knew they needed to be fixed. Being a woman who has never worked with a contractor was scary for Dianne, she wanted to work with a company that would respect her. While watching the evening news, she saw a commercial for Cantey Foundation Specialists and gave them a call the next day to set up an inspection appointment. System Design Specialist Laurence LaBruce came out and did a thorough inspection of the crawl space to determine a plan to permanently solve Dianne's sagging floors. When Laurence finished up, he sat down with Dianne to explain Cantey's process to fix sagging floors. The SmartJack system would begin with a steel beam being installed for extra support. Then a hole would be dug under the beam and filled with engineer designed gravel. Then a bottom plate would be placed on top of the gravel to hold the SmartJack. The SmartJack would also be attached to the steel beam above. When the jack is level, the crew then tightens the jack to create lift and stabilization. Dianne felt comfortable with Specialist Laurence and the fact that he explained the process to her. She believed that Cantey was the right company to help her achieve her goal of fixing her floors. Production Crew Leader Jonathan Lowder, Production Crew Member David Herbert, and Production Crew Member Phillip Sullivan came out and successfully installed the SmartJack system. Dianne now has those level floors she wanted to achieve and would recommend Cantey to anyone looking for a respectable company for foundation or crawl space repair.
Norvell P. noticed settlement issues and sagging floors throughout his mother's home in Fort Mill, SC. He said, "The kitchen floor seems to have spots where I can feel it dipping down and sinking down." In order to protect their investment, Norvell researched online and found CanteyCanFixIt.com. Shortly after, System Design Specialist Jamie Beresford inspected the home, and he found rotten wood beams throughout the crawl space. Knowing the structure was weakened because of the wood rot, Specialist Jamie advised that Norvell replace the wood rot right away so that the house would be structurally sound. The Production Crew led by Foreman Matt Garcia replaced the outer rim joists and joist sisters with our treated lumber, and then pushed 3 Piers to stabilize the foundation from any future movement. Norvell and his mother can now relax knowing that the home is safe to live in for many years to come!
