Jeff and Linda W. just moved into their Chapin, SC home a year ago. They had previously lived up North but decided to relocate to South Carolina after they retired. They chose just the right home in a quiet neighborhood that even included a basement. They decided to use the basement as a storage area. When they moved in, they put some things in the basement like holiday decorations that they did not need at the moment. A few months later when Linda went into the basement, she found that water had ruined some of their things. They had no idea that this was a problem but knew they needed to find a solution. Since they did not know the area very well or what company they could call, Jeff did a search online. He found Cantey Foundation Specialists and gave them a call to set up a free inspection. System Design Specialist Jason Hardage arrived for the scheduled appointment and did his inspection in the basement. Jason determined that Jeff and Linda needed Cantey's SmartSump system and a French drain installed to rid their basement of water. Jason explained that the SmartSump would be installed by removing a section of the floor in the basement. It would then sit below the surface and collect the water in the basement with the assistance of the French drain. As the water runs into the SmartSump, it is pumped to the outside. Jeff and Linda felt confident in the solution Cantey had provided them and scheduled an installation date. Production Team Leader Jonathan Lowder, Production Team Member David Herbert, and Production Team Member Matthew Kelley came out and successfully installed the SmartSump system. Jeff and Linda no longer have to worry about their storage area being filled with water thanks to Cantey's lasting solution.

Bill B. is a homeowner in Chapin, SC. Bill would do anything for his wife, who lives with COPD. COPD stands for Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease. This condition makes it hard to breath and gradually gets worse over time. Bill wants his wife to be as comfortable as she can at all times. Bill knows that most of his homes air comes from the crawl space and he would like to be able to make it as clean as possible. After hearing about Cantey Foundation Specialists on the radio and the CleanSpaces we offer, he decided to give us a call for a free inspection. Specialist John Adams came out to Bill’s home and completed the inspection. Afterwards, John explained to Bill that his home would be a great candidate for a CleanSpace because he also had a lot of standing water present and a CleanSpace would help eliminate that. He also recommended that Bill install Sump Pump and a Dehumidifier to pump that water out and dry the air to make it cleaner. Team Leader Matt, Team Member Robert, and Team Member David came out to Bill’s home and efficiently installed the products for him. After the work, Bill and his wife noticed a clear difference in the quality of the air. Now Bill and his wife can enjoy the clean air of their home thanks to Cantey Foundation Specialists.
