"Travis saved us a ton of money by giving us a straight answer on repairing the existing garage foundation versus tearing down and starting over with our detached garage. He certainly could have stood to make more money by just going with our original plan to repair the existing slab garage foundation, but he instead told us what he would do if it were his home. We really appreciate his honesty and will certainly hire CNT Foundations when we start over on this old garage!"

"I needed to add a bathroom and utility area, but did not want to increase a footprint of the house and decided to incorporate my carport into a living area. It allowed me to save on roofing and foundation, but created certain logistical difficulties in the project. Mike and his crew have creatively addressed all the issues which allowed me to maximize the living area while still being compliant with all the building codes. Work on the project was well planned and performed according to the schedule. In fact it took longer to wait for building permit from the county than the project itself. I also wanted to point out that Mike possesses a rare quality for contractor, he is very punctual and responsive. He had returned all my calls/e-mails within a day and had addressed all my concerns or requests in a timely manner. It was a pleasure to work with Mike and his crew and I would hire them for my next project without hesitation."

"Online advertisements for providers offering polylevel work for the Augusta, GA, region is quite sparse. I went with Cantey Foundation Specialists because their website appeared the most professional. I initiated contact through their website in early March. Due to a vacation and work schedule,I was unable to schedule an estimate until 4 weeks later, so the timeliness for the initial appointment was my fault. Nonetheless, a week before their representative's arrival, Cantey Foundation Specialists sent a package with a picture and bio of their representative in addition to some brochures on the polylevel process. The representative called to verify the appointment a few days before. 
On the appointment day, the representative drove over a 100 miles and was right on schedule. After introducing himself, we went to the backyard where we had a questions-and-answers exchange. Shortly after, he set about surveying the work area. This took some time as he was measuring the square footage of the area to be re-leveled which ended up being 396 sq ft total (area plus material costs). The initial cost estimate was $4,752 ($12 per sq ft), but, after an offer of reducing the price by 10%, the price was lowered to $4,276.80 ($10.80 per sq ft). Now, there's an upfront 20% deposit ($855.36), which is reasonable, but it turns out they're quite busy--actual work could only be scheduled in just over 7 weeks...mid-July. Until then, I hope there won't be too many stubbed toes and mama bear stink-eyes thrown at me.
Along with the contract, a warranty was included. It's a 5-year warranty which is transferable to new owners. Basically, if the worked area drops 1/4" or more, Cantey will fix the problem.

"They repaired the kitchen floor after a serious leak as well as repaired and replaced the subfloor foundational wood beams. We were stuck because we had to have the work done prior to an appraisal of the house in a week. Surprisingly they were able to move quickly and help us out. We were delighted with the professionalism of Chip and his foreman and all the workers! We were happy to share the house with them for a couple days and very pleased with the final work."

FAQs for concrete foundation raise projects in Charleston, SC

On average, it takes two to seven days to physically raise your house. However, this does not include the preparation work, which is often the most lengthy process. The entire project, including preparation, obtaining permits, disconnecting utilities, and any subsequent landscaping, can take four to eight weeks. This timeline ensures everything is done safely and that your home remains structurally sound.

If proper safety protocols are not followed, raising a house can cause severe damage, as the process involves applying controlled force to the home's structure. The risks involved make it crucial to hire a skilled contractor who uses engineered methods to secure your home and prevent any harm to your household.

If your foundation shows signs of instability after raising your home, you might need to add structural support. A structural engineer can assess your foundation and recommend reinforcements to ensure your house stays stable and safe for the long term. Available support options include installing additional piers or pilings, reinforcing existing footings, or using steel beams to distribute the load more evenly.

You will need a structural engineer to assess your home before you begin. These professionals determine whether your house is suitable for lifting and identify any issues that could compromise its stability. Their expertise ensures that the project is designed correctly and all risks are managed to achieve a successful lift.
