I had the opportunity to work with Don Lester from Mt. Valley, and I couldn’t be more impressed. Before contacting Don, I had another company come out to give me a quote, but they spent very little time onsite and barely pointed out any issues. Don, on the other hand, was incredibly thorough. He took the time to walk through every detail, identifying potential issues and explaining all of the available options. His expertise and dedication to ensuring everything was covered gave me complete confidence in his recommendations. If you’re looking for someone who is professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely cares about doing the job right, Don is the person to call.

Please see the earlier review (3/12) for context. I wanted to take a moment to share my experience with Mt. Valley Foundation Services regarding our sump pump installation. Overall, the team did an excellent job with both the initial installation and the subsequent repair of the discharge lines, which had come apart over time. They were professional, transparent, and truly seemed to care about the project. The only challenge I encountered was not with Mt. Valley Foundation Services itself, but rather with its parent company, Ground Works. From my experience, Ground Works has acquired many smaller foundation companies across the U.S., and it seems they may be struggling with logistical coordination. The call center they use is not very user-friendly, and I experienced multiple miscommunications and scheduling errors. Unfortunately, this puts Mt. Valley Foundation Services at the mercy of Ground Works' logistical issues. That said, I highly recommend working with Mt. Valley Foundation Services. My advice is to obtain the names and direct contact information of the service team when booking—this makes future communication significantly easier. Once I was able to reach the team directly, they went above and beyond to accommodate my needs. Living in a flood-prone area, I feel confident that the sump pump project they completed will be a tremendous benefit to our home and property. A big thanks to Danny (the manager) and his team for their outstanding work!

We are happy to leave an outstanding review for Kevin A and Harley for the work they did for us to stabilize our concrete slab. They went above and beyond to complete the work on a Sunday with very short notice. They were very willing to explain all of the procedures and answer any questions we had. They were polite and conscientious. They left everything clean and took careful attention to look out for walls and baseboards. We would definitely recommend them to others and use them again for any future needs.

Just had an inspection with Chris Weston regarding some cracking and spalling concerns. Chris was extremely professional, and paid attention to detail when explaining and addressing the foundational concerns I had in my home. He was thorough, honest, and made sure I understood the process and issues clearly. He provided a quote for the work on the spot, and informed me to contact him with any additional questions we may have.

The work was performed on my pool deck today by Austin and Michael and I am very happy with the work. As promised they called when they were in their way and arrived on time. Before the work was started we talked about my expectations and we were in agreement about the work to be performed. They explained the process and told me what to expect. I watched as they began the process and asked a few questions which they took the time to answer. When the job was completed I inspected the work and asked if they could fix something to my satisfaction. They happily agreed and added the few minor touchups. When they were finished I again inspected the work and was very happy with the final product. Austin and Michael explained the warranty and told me about the annual inspection. I was very pleased with the work that Austin and Michael performed along with the patience with all my questions and their professionalism. I would highly recommend Austin and Michael.

I recently had foundation work completed by Mount Valley Foundation at my property, and I could not be more impressed with the results. From start to finish, the team, Jarrod, Mason, and Kincade demonstrated exceptional professionalism, expertise, and attention to detail. They thoroughly inspected the issue, clearly explained the underlying problems, and offered a practical plan that fit both my needs and budget. The three man crew arrived on time each day, worked efficiently, and kept the work area clean and safe. They communicated progress throughout the project, which gave me a lot of confidence in the process. Once the work was complete, they walked me through everything they had done and made sure all my questions were answered. The quality of the repair is outstanding?my home feels more stable, the cracks have been addressed, and I have peace of mind knowing the foundation is solid for the long term. It?s rare to find a company like Mount Valley Foundation that combines skill,

I learned that 3 rooms were lower than the rest of the house and that Mount Valley had the fix! Austin and Michael promptly arrived and injected the polymer through the flooring into the ground. I found the pair to be quite knowledgeable and personable. They answered every question I had leaving me feeling very informed for the next house I buy. They were respectful of my home regarding routing their hose into my home and leaving the area as clean as possible afterwards. I'm very satisfied with Mount Valley's approach to foundation fixed.

Structural Repair Specialists in Charleston

Your home can be damaged for many reasons, but the most common are weather and soil conditions. Charleston, and the surrounding cities of Mount Pleasant, Summerville, James Island, and Goose Creek, have long, humid, wet summers. In fact, half of the annual rainfall occurs during June to September. Not to mention, the city of Charleston is located along the Charleston Harbor, an inlet of the Atlantic Ocean. Given its proximity to water, and the humid, wet weather, even with the best soil, homeowners in your region can experience serious foundation issues. 

Charleston has sandy surface soil and sandy loam sub-soils. These soils are well drained and moderately permeable, so damage from hydrostatic pressure is typically not a major concern. Homeowners like you do need to keep an eye out for crawl space problem signs. Uneven floors, musty or stinky odors, and high energy bills are all common problems when water and humidity enter the crawl space. Mold growth weakens the home’s structural support beams, causing sagging, sloping floors, and putting your health at risk.

If these issues seem more than familiar, we get it! The experts at Mount Valley Foundation Services know how to help. The sooner you allow us to repair your foundation, crawl space, basement, or concrete problem, the better. Foundation problems need to be addressed quickly, so the problem doesn’t get worse and become more costly to fix.
