By Thad
I asked the installer to pitch the sidewalk slightly away from the house and he did exactly that. It rained yesterday and the water flowed away from the house.
By Yuriy Dovba
Thank you
By Allen
Will recommend you to others with positive recommendations.
By Danny
Hope to use company again in future to repair cracked concrete carport, when funds are available.
By James
My only complaint is that if you open a window, let the occupants know it is open. This is not a reflection on CANTEY. Just an observation and something to address.
By Tom
I called William and told him what a great job the guys did. The process was minimally intrusive and this was very important to us. Thank you

They were amazing, they didn't even have to go through the floors and achieved everything I hoped for. They ran into a issue with a water line and fixed it too. They certainly went above and beyond for me!

The installation crew were very polite and professional, same with the office staff.  Mr. Grayson pitched a "hard sale," and was very professional and helpful.  Clean up after the job was finished was extremely satisfactory.  I felt that your company holds a high standard with integrity.  I am also very pleased with the results and was very impressed with the crew and Mr. Lopez.

We have had our floor problems for awhile now. We were using recommendations from friends and family. Couldn’t get a call back, no shows, excuses…. It was horrible!! We had lost faith in all contractors!! We talked with the Canty rep at the home show and from that moment forward, the process was wonderful!!! Canty restored our faith in contractors and I would highly recommend them to anyone!!! Make Canty your first call!!!

The phone contact staff are professional and the technical lead (Sam) was personable and technically sound in every way.Highly recommend Cantey without reservation.In summary, they are the Chick-Fil-A of foundation repair businesses :)

Incredible customer service. Alex, Travis, & Tyler just finished 3 days of foundation work under our house and they were incredible!! Extremely professional, polite, and respectful of our home. Crazy hard workers. Very good at what they do. My entire experience with this company has been positive start to finish, but I am particularly impressed with the actual work crew. Thank you guys very much!

Cantey Foundations provides a level of expertise and knowledge in their field which is rivaled by few if any. I could not be more impressed with their professionalism and their customer service is second to none.
Wayne R.
Forrest City, NC
My driveway repair had cracking. One call and it was repaired within 10 days. (As soon as a crew was free to repair)
Julie K.
Linwood, NC
The sales rep was very thorough & spent over two hours at my home explaining the process and answering all of my questions. The technicians were very professional and considerate. Each one introduced himself to me then went right to work. It took them about a day & a half to complete our crawl space encapsulation. We were very impressed with this company. They even sent us a $50 check for referring another family to their company. We highly recommend Cantey!
Trent W.
Cornelius, NC
Sixto, Caleb, and Nykeem worked like a well-oiled machine during our foundation instillation. My husband and I were a little nervous leading up to the morning our work was to begin. But, after prayer, meeting the crew, and witnessing their care, diligence, and skill we became relaxed and knew we selected the right foundation company. Caleb closely explained the work to be done and answered questions along the way. The crew treated us with respect and made us feel like we were their top priority. They worked hard but kept the work area clean. They were even careful when they pulled up our newly laid sod and relayed it after the foundation was completed. Our thanks is given to the crew for making our home safe and sound. Give them a raise...or at least a firm handshake for well-representing Cantey Foundation Specialists.

    To stop moisture from passing through your floors and porous concrete walls, a crawl space vapor barrier should be installed. A durable liner will allow for servicemen to use the space without damage while transforming your crawl space into usable storage space. This is also the best time to install crawl space insulation on your walls or floors. Installing crawl space drainage matting underneath the crawl space liner will help direct water to the drainage system and sump pump.
