Rebecca R. moved into her North Augusta, SC home almost 10 years ago and has no plans to move. She has always loved the area being able to enjoy both South Carolina and Georgia. She has plenty to do between the two states and loves keeping herself busy. Often because she is away, household chores and repairs fall by the wayside. When she was at home recently, she noticed that her living room floor had begun to sag. This was a wake-up call that she needed to protect the biggest investment she has. She did some research on the internet and found Cantey Foundation Specialists. After reading some great reviews, Rebecca called in and made an appointment for an inspection. System Design Specialist John Adams came out and did an inspection on the entire crawl space. John found that Rebecca needed extra support that could be provided by Cantey's patented SmartJack system. The SmartJack system installation would start with soil being removed at the sites for the SmartJacks. These holes would then be filled with tightly compact crushed stone that would be the solid ground for the footing. The SmartJack would be specifically cut for Rebecca's crawl space and attached to the footing as well as the beam above. Once the SmartJack is secure, it is then adjusted to create lift and stabilization for the floor above. Production Team Leader Sixto Lopez, Production Team Member Jose Lopez, and Production Team Member Mariano Valdovines came out and effectively installed the SmartJack system. Rebecca is more involved now with her home repairs and recommends Cantey to others that are having crawl space issues.

London V. of North Augusta, SC scheduled a FREE inspection and estimate with Cantey Foundation Specialists. It was determined that the family home would benefit from helical piers. These piers are mechanically advanced into the soil using small construction equipment or hand equipment. As they are installed to appropriate depths and capacities, they prevent any future settlement issues. In many scenarios, these foundation piers will be able to lift your home back to level position by the completion of the installation.

With knowledge of local soil conditions, helical piers can be an ideal solution because the installing contractor will know exactly how deep to install the piers to reach a stable soil layer that can support your home. If your goals are the following, helical piers are a good choice:

• You need the best opportunity to lift your home back to its original position.
• Lighter structures, such as decks or stoops, are in need of stabilization.
• You'd like minimal disturbance during installation.
• You're looking for a fast, effective installation.
• Restoring your property value is a priority.

Once your helical piers have been installed, you can count on your problem to be solved -- once and for all!
