Foundation Repair Before & After Photos

This home in Florence, SC was showing signs of foundation settlement as cracks were appearing along the outer bricks. We used our patented Push Piers outside the home and Smart Jacks under the home to provide full support and lift the home back up to its original position. 

Cracking in the exterior bricks of your home is usually one of the first signs of foundation settlement. The soil around your home starts to contract and expand, worsening with ground water. This compromises the stability of your home and starts to cause exterior and interior cracking from the pressure of the soil. Cantey crew members used helical piers, which extend far into the ground to provide structural support to the home, to close the cracks in the bricks and stabilize the house. 

SmartJacks were assembled along a 9' supplemental beam under this home for proper stabilization and leveling because as you can see, the stability of this home is scarcely supported by older pieces of wood. SmartJacks are used to raise sagging floors and provide support to areas of the home that may be lacking posts or piers and need reinforcement.
