Before & After Photos

Lori S. has lived and owned a home in Bishopville, SC for most of her life. She has always taken pride in her home as a welcoming place for family and friends. Being so social means she wants her home to be in great condition and a safe place for her guests. She began to notice part of her home sinking. Not knowing much about the foundation, she did not know who to turn to for answers to her questions. She searched online for a company that could possibly help and found Cantey Foundation Specialists. Lori was impressed with their website and the testimonials of other customers so she scheduled an appointment for an inspection. System Design Specialist Jamie Beresford arrived for the inspection and found that Lori did indeed need assistance with her foundation. Jamie told Lori that the lasting solution she needed was Cantey's Helical Pier system. Jamie further explained that the Helical Piers would be inserted into the ground at a depth that would reach the competent soil. This soil would have to be strong enough to hold the weight of the home. Once this level is reached, a metal bracket is placed on the bottom of the home. Then using hydraulics, the piers would push against the capable soil and use the bracket to lift the home back to its original position. Lori appreciated Jamie answering all her questions and decided this was the solution her home needed. Production Team Leader Juan Ramirez, Production Team Member Matthew Williams, and Production Team Member Robert Gardner came out and successfully installed the Helical Pier system. Lori is now worry-free about her foundation and tells all of her guests about the help she received from Cantey.

Before & After of this Bishopville, SC patio after getting concrete services. 

Customer Paul P. of Columbia, SC began noticing cracks inside and outside his home.  He also noticed that his floors were sloping in certain areas, which concerned him.  Calling Cantey Foundation Specialists for a free estimate, System Design Specialist Will Yarbrough inspected the home, and he advised Paul to replace his old crawl space jacks because they were no longer supporting the structure.  Cantey sent in Production Crew Foreman Matt Garcia and his crew to replace the jacks with our patented SmartJack System.  Our SmartJacks are made out of galvanized steel so they are strong and resistant to corrosion, and our SmartJacks also solve the issue of problematic soils which created the problem in the first place!

Customer Janet B. has owned and raised her family in this Columbia, SC home since 1989.  She moved to North Carolina over the past few years because of work reasons, but she wanted to fix the home now so that she can move back in when she retires.  After researching Cantey Foundation Specialists online, she called to make an appointment for a free estimate. System Design Specialist Jamie Beresford arrived at the house and recommended that Janet utilize our patented Polylevel process, which would lift and stabilize part of her slab foundation.  Jamie also recommended eight of our steel-galvanized Push Piers to stabilize her home. Production Crew Foremen TJ Harden and Ryan Shirley installed the PolyLevel and Push Piers to our high Cantey standard. The cracks are gone and the foundation is now stabilized so that Janet can fully enjoy her home when she retires.

Marshall M. and his wife owned their Columbia home for many years, and they noticed settlement issues becoming worse and worse.  They wanted to fix the issues now to mitigate future problems.  After seeing Cantey Foundation Specialists' advertisement in the local Val-Pak, Marshall called for a free estimate.  System Design Specialist William Yarbrough inspected their home, and he noticed numerous large cracks in the exterior of the home, settlement in the garage, and drainage issues around the home.  Specialist William recommended that Push Piers would be installed to lift and stabilize the exterior of the home, while our patented PolyLevel could lift and stabilize the concrete slab garage.  He also recommended that Cantey install a drainage system around the home to allow rainwater to bypass and continue past the house rather than flooding the home and crawl space.  The Production Crew was the "Dream Team," which consists of three foreman, Dallas Darity, Justin Wheeler, and Junior Tamaya completed the project in a timely manner so that Marshall and his wife can be confident in living in their home for many years to come.
