Lowcountry Basement Systems

Lowcountry Basement Systems didn’t start off in a very traditional way. In fact, the founders, Rob and Nancy Videon of Rincon, Georgia, started their very first business in 2000 to help support their family. Rob spent hours cleaning windows, and soon, Clean USA Inc. was born. Rob and Nancy worked their way up to branching into the cleaning business, learning everything they could about pressure washing, construction site cleaning, and more to help cater to their community. While their business grew, they began to take on heavier roles – Nancy ran the office, while Rob handled sales and production. Eventually, the couple noticed a larger problem their clients were facing – mold.

Moisture is the archenemy of your home’s structural integrity, particularly in the humid climates of coastal South Carolina and Georgia. Nowhere is it more diabolical than in the crawl space — the space between the ground and the subfloor of the house.

When a young child draws the familiar figure of a house, it’s typically a simple triangle for the roof and a simple square for the frame. Adults know a house is much more complex than this - and, one of the most important aspects of a building is the foundation, a part that doesn’t show up in kindergarten artwork.

It’s an inevitable situation for homeowners: cracks in the driveway, sidewalks, garage floor or in the concrete patio near the pool. Cracks in the concrete can occur for a number of reasons from routine settling to encroaching tree roots.

Whatever the reason, cracks are an annoying eyesore and, if the pavement is particularly uneven, it can create a tripping hazard. Redoing the concrete is expensive and neglecting repairs can lead more damage down the road.
