Settling foundation around the front porch of this home in Irmo, SC caused the porch to separate from the home, which in turn created cracks in the bricks as the weight of the front porch was sinking away. Helical piers were installed to raise the weight of the porch and lift it back toward its original position. Helical piers are great for stabilizing lighter structures, such as porches, decks and stoops.

This crawlspace in Irmo, SC, was retaining water over long periods of time causing mold and fungus to spread through the vents from the relative humidity in the air. As breathing moldy air can have harsh effects on the body, the homeowners were very much in favor of installing Cantey's CleanSpace Encapsulation system. The CleanSpace solution encapsulates the entire crawl space and keeps the water at bay using a SmartPump sump pump and dehumidifying system.

Experienced Foundation Repair Contractor Serving Irmo & Nearby

Are you worried about the state of your home's foundation in Irmo? Over time, changing soil conditions, rainfall, and other factors can impact the area around your home, resulting in a sinking, settling foundation. When that happens, your home will display a range of symptoms, such as bowing walls, sagging floors, sticking windows, and more. These common foundation problems not only make life at home uncomfortable but are potentially dangerous.

While foundation problems tend to develop slowly, you will find yourself investing in costly repairs down the line if you don't keep an eye on them and make improvements when necessary. Additionally, when it's time to sell your home, you'll either have to resolve all foundation problems or take a hit on your home's overall value.

The good news? Cantey Foundation Specialists offers a variety of affordable, proven solutions for all of your foundation repair needs. Our specialists can inspect your foundation, pinpointing all problem areas and coming up with the best plan of action.

Foundation Problems We Fix:

  • House settling and sinking
  • Windows and doors sticking
  • Tilting chimneys
  • Tilting and bowing walls
  • Floor and wall cracks
  • Collapsing retaining walls
  • Sagging crawl space
  • Uneven floors

Our Foundation Repair Products:

  • Crawl space support posts
  • Push piers and slab piers
  • Wall anchor covers

Using a variety of equipment built for commercial and government projects, such as helical piles and anchors, helix piers, tieback anchors, and more, you can trust Cantey Foundation Specialists for all of your foundation design and restoration needs.

Crawl Space Encapsulation & Sump Pump Installation Contractor

Humid crawl spaces are breeding grounds for mold and rot, causing structural and air quality problems for the rest of your home. What's even worse is that traditional methods of keeping crawl spaces dry, such as venting, have been proven time and time again to create more problems than they solve.

Cantey Foundation Specialists offers complete crawl space repair and encapsulation services using the CleanSpace® system. By installing a crawl space vapor barrier and additional products like thermal insulation, dehumidifiers, drainage matting, and a crawl space sump pump, you can create a fully enclosed, arid crawl space that won't allow for any moisture to enter.

If your crawl space has rotted or has sagging support joists, we can also assist by installing our galvanized steel crawl space support jacks. Your crawl space bears the weight of the floors above, so having stable supports is crucial!

Crawl Space Problems We Fix:

  • Buckled or cold floors upstairs
  • Humidity & condensation
  • Mold or moisture damage
  • Musty odors
  • Pooling water
  • Wood rot around framing & floor registers
  • Insect & pest infestations
  • Soggy, hanging, or fallen insulation

Our Crawl Space Repair Products:

  • CleanSpace® Crawl Space Encapsulation System
  • Crawl Space Sump pump installation & repair
  • Energy-efficient dehumidifiers
  • Crawl space supports
  • Crawl space insulation
  • Drainage systems & access wells
  • Vents, doors & access wells
  • Crawl space structural repair

Contact Cantey Foundation Specialists today to talk to learn more about our crawl space encapsulation and repair solutions. We proudly serve Irmo, SC and the surrounding area in Richland County.

Professional Aluminum Gutter Installation in Irmo

Your gutters are more important than you may think. Healthy gutters help maintain a healthy home, transporting water and debris from your roof and safely depositing it away from areas where it can cause damage. While you might think faulty or ineffective gutters limit damages to the roof, think again. Foundations can be at risk as well. Without properly-fitted, high-quality seamless gutters, you might find yourself with a wet basement, leaky roof, or other avoidable household issues. You need a gutter contractor you can trust to make sure the job gets done right.

Cantey Foundation Specialists installs durable seamless gutters constructed from single pieces of high-strength aluminum. With this construction technique, our aluminum gutters avoid the pitfalls of traditional seamed gutters, like debris clogs. Seamless gutters are just one component of our fully-customized gutter systems. We install innovative gutter guards as well, which permanently eliminate the need to clean your gutters. We can guarantee a clog-free seamless gutter experience with safe water evacuation for years to come!

We are the Irmo area’s premier gutter contractor, specializing in aluminum gutter installation, gutter guards, downspout extensions, and more. Call us today for your no-cost, no-obligation gutter replacement estimate!

PolyLevel Gives Homeowners Their Porch Back in Irmo, SC

Homeowners Robert and Amy B. from Irmo, SC love using their porch for relaxing. They sit out on the porch on afternoons after work and weekend mornings with their coffee. They began to notice that porch was starting to sink and they worried that it could possibly cave in. Due to their concern they did not want to use their porch but soon enough it was something they started to miss. Robert and Amy did not want to have to replace the porch entirely so they searched the web for different solutions that would be more affordable. They came across Cantey Foundation Specialists in their search and gave them a call. System Design Specialist Alexander Lovette came out and did an inspection on the porch. He sat down with Robert and Amy after his inspection and told them about Cantey's PolyLevel system. Alexander explained that Cantey's crew would drill small holes into the concrete then inject the PolyLevel which comes out as a liquid so that it can fill all the voids underneath the concrete. The PolyLevel would harden within 15 seconds and create lift for their porch. Production Team Leader TJ Harden and Production Team Member Jeremey Wilson came out and effectively installed the PolyLevel system as well as filled in the injection spots. Robert and Amy are back to relaxing on their porch and thankful to Cantey for the work they did to give them their oasis back.

Lake Murray Pool Deck Lifted with PolyLEVEL

Chuck R. has a beautiful home in Irmo, right on Lake Murray.  His picturesque back yard almost matched the exquisite home... almost.  The gorgeous two-tier pool was surrounded by a cracking and moving concrete slab patio.  Not only was it displeasing to the eye, but it also created functionality problems and safety hazards.

Chuck called in Cantey Foundation Specialists to fix the problem.  TJ Harden, our PolyLEVEL Specialist, and assistant Ryan McPherson arrived unto the scene and detected that over ten slabs needed to be lifted to a level position.  After a few hours and setbacks with the rain, TJ and Ryan finally finished the PolyLEVEL process.

Chuck is now worry-free about the aesthetics of his back yard and pool, and he also does not have any concern that someone will hurt themselves tripping or falling in by the pool!
