Suzan M. bought her home in Irmo, SC after years of living in an apartment. She decided she wanted more space for her and her two dogs. Since buying the home Suzan has had to do little to repair it which she counted herself lucky for. She began to notice the corner of her home sinking and cracking. Not knowing how serious this could be, she did not pay it much mind. As the cracks got worse, Suzan began to worry more about the state of what was to be her forever home. She called a company to come out and take a look but after hearing their solution, she was not certain. She needed a second opinion and after doing an internet search found Cantey Foundation Specialists. She called in and was scheduled for an appointment with System Design Specialist Brandon Privette. Brandon did a thorough inspection and found that the optimum solution for Suzan would be Cantey's Push Pier system. The Push Piers would be installed deep enough to reach competent spoil underneath the footing. The bracket of the Push Piers is then installed below the foundation's footing. Then hydraulics are used to drive the piers causing the weight of the home to be transferred through the pier to the competent soil below. This would then raise the home back to its original position. Suzan was impressed with Brandon's presentation and trusted that Cantey would fix her home properly. Production Team Leader Aubrey McJunkin, Production Team Member Oscar Mota, and Production Team Member Francisco Lopez came out and effectively installed the Push Pier system. Suzan is beyond relieved that her home is finally stable and she can get back to relaxing with her dogs.

James and Gwen D. moved into their Irmo, SC home when their children were small. They have made many memories there and the home means a lot to them. Even though they are getting older, they try to take the best care of their home. They fix what they can and make improvements here and there. Over time in the bedroom, the floor started to feel weak in certain spots. This was concerning to both James and Gwen because they wanted to take care of their home but they felt helpless. James could not get under the house to even take a look. While watching the news one night, they saw an advertisement for Cantey Foundation Specialists and decided to call in the next day. They made an appointment with System Design Specialist Brandon Privette. Brandon came out and did a thorough inspection for James and Gwen, even taking pictures for them to see the damage. Brandon then sat down with James and Gwen to explain that the wood under their home had been damaged over the years and was causing the floor to be weak. He mapped out a plan for the wood to be replaced and told the couple that one of the crews could have all of the wood replaced in two days. James and Gwen were impressed by Cantey and really felt comfortable having the Cantey team help them with this repair. Production Crew Leader Aubrey McJunkin, Production Crew Member Francisco Lopez, and Production Crew Member Phillip Sullivan came out and effectively replaced all the rotten wood. James and Gwen have peace of mind that their home is in much better condition and have already recommended Cantey to their friends.
Jack A. called Cantey Foundation Specialists because his crawl space needed to be encapsulated; he was worried about the probability of rotting wood joists, mold growth, and the fact that he could be potentially breathing in all the dirt. "It's just a mess!" Jack said.
Within a day, Production Crew Foreman Jonathan, Project Manager Sean, and Production Crew Members Ethen and Israel removed his insulation and debris, added a drain, and completely encapsulated his crawlspace.
Now, Jack can enjoy a cleaner, healthier crawl space!
