Supportworks Push Piers are made of steel and are driven deep into the soil beneath a foundation to solve settlement problems.

Push piers can be installed inside or outside your foundation walls and are not visible once the repair is complete.

In many scenarios, push piers not only stop settlement but lift the foundation back to its original position, closing cracks and improving window and door operation.

If you have a crawl space and the floors above are out of level, you may have a structural problem in your crawl space. Crawl space jacks can address the structural problems.

If a concrete slab is uneven, it could be because of settlement or foundation heaving. Foundation settlement can be solved by installing foundation piers.

Experienced Foundation Repair Contractor Serving Charlotte & Nearby

Are you worried about the state of your home's foundation in Charlotte? Over time, changing soil conditions, rainfall, and other factors can impact the area around your home, resulting in a sinking, settling foundation. When that happens, your home will display a range of symptoms, such as bowing walls, sagging floors, sticking windows, and more. These common foundation problems not only make life at home uncomfortable but are potentially dangerous.

While foundation problems tend to develop slowly, you will find yourself investing in costly repairs down the line if you don't keep an eye on them and make improvements when necessary. Additionally, when it's time to sell your home, you'll either have to resolve all foundation problems or take a hit on your home's overall value.

The good news? Cantey Foundation Specialists offers a variety of affordable, proven solutions for all of your foundation repair needs. Our specialists can inspect your foundation, pinpointing all problem areas and coming up with the best plan of action.

Foundation Problems We Fix:

  • House settling and sinking
  • Windows and doors sticking
  • Tilting chimneys
  • Tilting and bowing walls
  • Floor and wall cracks
  • Collapsing retaining walls
  • Sagging crawl space
  • Uneven floors

Our Foundation Repair Products:

  • Crawl space support posts
  • Push piers and slab piers
  • Wall anchor covers
  • Street creep system
  • Channel anchor

In addition to our residential foundation repair services, we also provide support for commercial foundations. We offer reliable repairs for existing foundations and can also take on end-bearing deep foundations for new commercial construction. Using a variety of equipment built for commercial and government projects, such as helical piles and anchors, helix piers, tieback anchors, and more, you can trust Cantey Foundation Specialists for all of your foundation design and restoration needs.

Crawl Space Encapsulation & Sump Pump Installation Contractor

Humid crawl spaces are breeding grounds for mold and rot, causing structural and air quality problems for the rest of your home. What's even worse is that traditional methods of keeping crawl spaces dry, such as venting, have been proven time and time again to create more problems than they solve.

Cantey Foundation Specialists offers complete crawl space repair and encapsulation services using the CleanSpace® system. By installing a crawl space vapor barrier and additional products like thermal insulation, dehumidifiers, drainage matting, and a crawl space sump pump, you can create a fully enclosed, arid crawl space that won't allow for any moisture to enter.

If your crawl space has rotted or has sagging support joists, we can also assist by installing our galvanized steel crawl space support jacks. Your crawl space bears the weight of the floors above, so having stable supports is crucial!

Crawl Space Problems We Fix:

  • Buckled or cold floors upstairs
  • Humidity & condensation
  • Mold or moisture damage
  • Musty odors
  • Pooling water
  • Wood rot around framing & floor registers
  • Insect & pest infestations
  • Soggy, hanging, or fallen insulation

Our Crawl Space Repair Products:

  • CleanSpace® Crawl Space Encapsulation System
  • Crawl Space Sump pump installation & repair
  • Energy-efficient dehumidifiers
  • Crawl space supports
  • Crawl space insulation
  • Drainage systems & access wells
  • Vents, doors & access wells
  • Crawl space structural repair

Professional Aluminum Gutter Installation in Charlotte

Your gutters are more important than you may think. Healthy gutters help maintain a healthy home, transporting water and debris from your roof and safely depositing it away from areas where it can cause damage. While you might think faulty or ineffective gutters limit damages to the roof, think again. Foundations can be at risk as well. Without properly-fitted, high-quality seamless gutters, you might find yourself with a wet basement, leaky roof, or other avoidable household issues. You need a gutter contractor you can trust to make sure the job gets done right.

Cantey Foundation Specialists installs durable seamless gutters constructed from single pieces of high-strength aluminum. With this construction technique, our aluminum gutters avoid the pitfalls of traditional seamed gutters, like debris clogs. Seamless gutters are just one component of our fully-customized gutter systems. We install innovative gutter guards as well, which permanently eliminate the need to clean your gutters. We can guarantee a clog-free seamless gutter experience with safe water evacuation for years to come!

We are the Charlotte area’s premier gutter contractor, specializing in aluminum gutter installation, gutter guards, downspout extensions, and more. Call us today for your no-cost, no-obligation gutter replacement estimate!

Cracks in walls on one end of the house. Doors are dragging in frame. Since we've had so much rain, distinct odor of mildew coming from underneath the house. We had the house checked within the last 2yrs and of course it hasn't gotten better because we didn't do anything. I know we need foundation repair, which is minor I believe, duct work that's effecting the foundation, and abatement. We need good work that has warranty, as well as a good price.
