MVFS did a great job eliminating my moisture issue in my crawlspace on Hilton Head Island. I was getting significant subfloor and joist rot due to the ongoing moisture problem being trapped by the insulation. Daniel, Nathan, and their teams were very professional and worked tirelessly to remediate the issue before it turned into a major issue.

Nathan, Tevin, and Darnell worked hard under my house to install metal beam and three jacks to fix a sunken piling. They also did a great job putting French drain around entire perimeter with pump to pump any water out after big rains. Nathan answered all my questions and put me at ease with the process. I would definitely recommend this company and Nathan’s crew!!!

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.
