At first, she didn’t think anything of it because it didn’t bother her that bad. As time went on, however, she noticed it more and more. The more she noticed it the more it bothered her. She finally gave in and got someone from her church who had a contrition back ground to come look at it. After he had finished his look around he told her that her floor joist was beginning to give and that she needed them replaced. This didn’t surprise her because that’s exactly what she thought as well so she got them replaced and thought nothing of it. Once again as time goes on she started noticing the sagging again. Frustrated with her floors she calls back her construction friend to look at it once more. This time he tells her that he doesn’t know what it could be, that it’s beyond his understanding at this point. After venting to her friends at church about how aggravated she is with the floors one of her friends recommends she calls Cantey Foundation Specialists to check it out so she does. Specialist Richard Early came out to Sara’s home and gave her a free inspection. After the inspection was done Richard explained to her that it wasn’t her floors that was the problem but her wall. “My wall!?”, she said. “Yes, your wall”, Richard replied. “Sagging walls can often cause rippling effects such as high and low points in your floors.

First, he needed to completely rebuild the floors and needed to find the right company for the job. An internet search brought him to Cantey Foundation Specialists home page and he called in to schedule an inspection.

SmartJacks Restore Childhood Home in Johns Island, SC

Jeremy M. has lived in his Johns Island, SC home for as long as he can remember. He inherited his childhood home from his parents and could not imagine living anywhere else. He loves living in the low country and having the ability to enjoy the beach. The only downside to the low country for him has always been the toll it takes on his home. He had noticed that his living room floor was beginning to slope and knew that soil had washed out underneath his home. He had previously had some wood replaced by Cantey Foundation Specialists so he gave them a call for a new solution. System Design Specialist Kendall Moore arrived and inspected the crawl space and found that Jeremy’s home just needed some extra support. Kendall recommended Cantey’s patented SmartJack system to Jeremy as a lasting solution. The installation would start by removing sections of soil where the tightly compacted crushed stone would fill to create a stable base for the footing to be placed on top. A steel beam that would be specifically cut to fit Richard’s crawl space would then be placed on top of the footing and attached to the top of the crawl space. These steel beams or SmartJacks could then be adjusted to lift the kitchen floor to its proper position. Production Team Leader Juan Ramirez, Production Team Member Matthew Williams, and Production Team Member Robert Gardner came out and successfully installed the SmartJack system. Jeremy is thankful to Cantey for restoring his childhood home and recommends this company to anyone in need of foundation repair.

Are all floor cracks a sign of a serious problem?

Not all floor cracks are serious. Small, hairline cracks are often a normal result of concrete drying and shrinking. However, if cracks are widening, uneven, or extending into your walls, or if your floors feel bouncy or sag, they could indicate more significant issues like foundation settlement, expansive soils, or crawl space structural problems, and should be professionally inspected.
