Concrete & Foundation Repair, Basement Waterproofing & Crawl Space Repair Contractor in Charlotte, NC

Alright, picture this: the Burke family, a wonderful bunch, just trying to enjoy their beautiful home in Charlotte, NC. But underneath it all, literally, was a silent intruder: moisture. That dampness creeping into their crawlspace was causing all sorts of headaches – musty smells, maybe even a little worry about the air quality in their home. It's the kind of thing that nibbles away at your peace of mind, right?

That's where we, the team at Cantey Foundation Specialists, stepped in. Think of us as the home's best friend, the ones who know how to tackle those hidden challenges. For the Burkes, Phase One of their home's refresh was all about saying goodbye to that unwanted moisture.

Our solution? The CleanSpace system. Now, this isn't just some flimsy plastic sheeting. This is a heavy-duty, durable vapor barrier – a superhero cape for their crawlspace! Imagine a clean, bright space instead of a damp, dark one. That's the transformation CleanSpace delivers.

We carefully and meticulously sealed off their crawlspace, creating a barrier against the moisture rising from the ground. Think of it like putting a lid on a pot – the dampness can't get out and cause trouble anymore. This not only helps to improve the air quality in their home, making it a healthier environment for the whole family, but it also helps protect the structural integrity of their home in the long run.

For the Burke family, this wasn't just an installation; it was the first step towards a drier, healthier, and more comfortable home. It was peace of mind knowing that we, Cantey Foundation Specialists, were there to take care of this crucial first step. And trust me, seeing their smiles and knowing we made a real difference? That's what drives us every single day. This is just the beginning of their home's journey to being its absolute best, and we're honored to be a part of it.

Cantey Foundation Specialists recently helped D. Powell of Charlotte, NC with quality of life while restoring his family home. He started building the forever home at the end of 2019. COVID hit shortly after, and lumber prices forced him to put the build on hold. He is now picking up where he left off and is getting closer to being done. That being said he noticed some cracking and sinking of some of the slabs of the back porch. We used our PolyLevel Lift on the sinking slabs to stabilize and attempt to lift the porch to its original position. 

We recently helped the Balcerzaks of Charlotte, NC with peace of mind. Last week their existing maintenance company informed them they had high moisture levels.

Our liner is thicker, and we have a sump where the other guy's quote did not offer this added protection. Even still we came out 1k cheaper, so it was an easy decision to move forward with Cantey.
