Water and mold collecting in your crawl space will only continue to get worse and cause damage to both your health and your home. After the rain water enters under your home, the relative humidity in the air creates the perfect environment for mold growth and critters. The wood beams under your home become infested with termites, causing damage and compromising the structural integrity of which it stands. Cantey can fix it! In this home in Bishopville, SC, Cantey crew members installed a CleanSpace Solution, which includes a moisture barrier and dehumidifying system that keeps the water out of the air so that you can breathe cleaner, healthy air.
Basement and crawl space flooding can be caused by a variety of reasons and can become very problematic. This crawl space in Columbia, SC, needed maintenance as it had leaking pipes and an old sump pump, which became clogged and started to overflow. When sump pumps stop working, they allow the water vapor to rise from the ground, providing the perfect conditions for mold and mildew to spread throughout the space, into the HVAC and ultimately through the vents of the house. Cantey Foundation Specialists has specifically designed a high-quality Sump Pump that sits deep into the ground and is covered by a perforated liner, containing a reliable pump and an alarm system that will alert you if water vapor is released. The alarm acts as a safety precaution so the homeowners will know if the air becomes compromised by mold and mildew. A proper discharge line is attached and is custom fit for each home to flow in a direction away from your home and keep your property clean and free of groundwater.

This crawlspace had exposed dirt, loose debris, and unprotected structural and mechanical components, creating ongoing moisture concerns beneath the home.
