Walter Z. is a homeowner in Charleston, SC who spends plenty of time in his garage fixing and woodworking through many projects. He began to notice a crack forming above his garage door. He attempted to fill it several times, which would hold for a while but eventually get right back to the way it was. His neighbor had used Cantey Foundation Specialists for a similar problem and was happy with the work they did on his home. Walter decided he would give them a call and schedule a day for someone to come out and inspect. System Design Specialist Kendall Moore came out to do a free inspection and estimate. Walter explained to Kendall that his expectation for the project was to just have peace of mind that these cracks would not continue to get worse. Kendall did an inspection of the garage and the areas around it concluding that Walter needed to lift his garage with Cantey's SmartJack system to give his garage lift and stabilization. This would give him lift to fill the current crack and prevent any others from forming. Production Team Leader Sixto Lopez, Production Team Member Jose Lopez, and Production Team Member Estevan Lopez came out to Walter's home and installed the SmartJack system which lifted the garage, effectively filling the worrisome crack. Walter is now satisfied with how his garage is looking and tributes Cantey with restoring his favorite place in his home.
The Cantey crew is careful to leave this North Charleston, SC yard in top order after installing a drainage system.
This Charleston home had a frightening crawl space when Cantey first layed eyes on it. Years of stagnant water allowed living organisms to prosper throughout the wooden beams and piers. The insulation had crumbled and fallen under such humid conditions. Cantey encapsulated the whole basement, and installed a sump pump to ensure that any additional water would drain out of the crawl space. This decreased the humidity and practically eliminated the production of mold. Susan G. is now worry free about her crawl space!
Customer Ralph E. of Charleston, SC was unsure as to why his floors were unlevel and squeaky; after searching on Google for answers, he stumbled upon CanteyCanFixIt.com and decided to get a free estimate. When System Design Specialist Grayson Forehand inspected his home, he told Ralph that the cause of his sloping floors were because of settling crawl space support posts, which in this case were cement block posts. Cantey's recommendation? Replace the old heavy cement posts with our strong, durable, and adjustable SmartJacks! Production Crew Foreman and Service Manager Trey Dukes not only lifted Ralph's floor back into place, but he also will no longer have to worry about his floor settling again!
Audrey R. is a homeowner in Charleston, SC who has had some issues with her walls cracking. The main issue is the wall between the kitchen and the dinning room. She is worried that her home might be settling since that is a big issue around where she lives. After hearing about Cantey Foundation Specialists from a friend she decides to give us a call. Specialist Kendall Moore went to Audrey's home for a free inspection and found that her suspicions are correct, the home is settling. Kendall explains that Cantey's patented Smart Jack technology is the solution she needs. Smart Jacks act as the support that your home needs and that your stone piers may not provide anymore. Smart Jacks are built on a 2x2x2 hole filled with stone in order to displaces that weight caused by the home and decrease settling. Team Leader Dallas D. and Team Member Dallas E. quickly came to Aubrey's rescue and installed her Smart Jacks. This ensured Aubrey that her home's wall would be stable and prevent further cracking. Aubrey said she was pleased with the work done and was happy that Cantey did the job right.
