Kolden Kicklighter came to our house to inspect our crawl space. He showed us videos of the area, several moisture readings and pictures of our floor joists. He presented two options for encapsulating the crawl space that will permanently solve our moisture problems and prevent future foundation problems. Kolden was very prepared, very knowledgeable, very thorough and VERY professional. We were quite impressed. We got a 2nd quote that was considerably more and didn't provide the materials and warranty Mount Valley offers. We are sure we'll be pleased with Mount Valley.

Clint Weimann from the Greenville branch attended a meeting at my holiday home. Not only did he review issues that we have been experiencing with our foundations at the property, but he also highlighted additional defects and proposed suitable remedy. I was overly impressed by his promptness, attention to detail and knowledge. Well done Mount Valley! Highly impressed!

Robert Dunn, Ryan LevepRio Roberson, and Trel Pearson gave excellent service at my home on a 2 day work assignment. They all showed respect and enjoyable attitudes. We had a few laughs and I enjoyed their company. The 2 days, and about 12 hours each day , were extremely hot and humid! However, they prevailed and kept up the hard work with a smile and kind word! Very appreciative of their work ethic.

Absolutely the best experience I've ever had with contractors, start to finish. Our basement was flooding during every heavy rain. We called a few companies and settled on Mount Valley for their reviews and response. They came out, quoted us a great price for a lot of work, and a few weeks later showed up to do it. Upon arrival, the site supervisor noticed that the layout we'd drawn up might not work with the water issues we were having. He made the change on site, got everything where it needed to be, and was out on time. The work ended up being less, and Mount Valley submitted a change order to actually give me my savings. John, Jeremy, Desmond, and Marty were all excellent communicators, diligent workers, and I couldn't be happier. Truly a pleasure of an experience. I wish Mount Valley could do my electrical and plumbing work next.

Job was quoted, accepted, and then they followed through exactly as promised. Mike Zelewski went above and beyond my expectations getting the huge job done when promised. We have a 3 year old son so getting our basement fixed was #1 priority. MVFS made us feel like they respected that. I 100% recommend them for any foundation service needs. My job was 60 linear feet, 12 inches wide, about 5 inches deep. Closed gutter system into sump pump. All interior walk out basement. They also installed vapor barrier on all interior block walls.

It has been said that people don't remember what you did, but they remember how you made them feel: I remember both, and when it comes to my experience with Mount Valley Foundation Services, they were both Excellent! Phillip Maultbay (Technician) and Brett (Sales Mgr) are ABSOLUTE GEMS! I have experience as an HR Recruiter and I can tell you that they are BOTH the kinds of employees that ANY COMPANY would love to have on board! They were punctual, professional, knowledgeable, personable, thorough, they answered all of my questions, and they did it all while being KIND!!! Their commitment to, appreciation for, and pride in their organization simply exuded in their conversation, and overview of the organization's history, structure, qualifications, and future goals: in other words, they really LOVE and VALUE their organization, and they represent the organization VERY WELL! In fact, they were so enthusiastic, that if the job didn't involve crawling underneath houses, and the possibility of seeing "critters and varmints," I would be ready to join the Groundworks Team myself! I can only HOPE that the Groundworks/Mount Valley Foundation Organization is aware of the RARE GEMS that they have within your organization: Phillip Maultbay (and Brett) are now like family to me, and when I am ready to have the recommended work completed, I will most assuredly contact Mount Valley to perform the repairs! GREAT JOB GROUNDWORKS/MOUNT VALLEY!!!!

Mt. Valley foundation services just completed our crawl space encapsulation today. We are very, very pleased. Robert Dunn, foreman, and his crew, Ryan Lever abd Darryl Thorpe did an excellent job. They showed up on time and put in a full day's work. They were professional, polite and respectful. They showed us before and after pictures. It's amazing how different our crawl space looks. This will save us $ on electricity and prevent possible future foundation issues. If you need your crawl space encapsulated, you cannot go wrong with Mt Valley Foundation Services. We highly recommend them.

Jack Jeffords is THE BEST‼️‼️ He is very thorough and makes sure that you are well aware of what’s going on under your house. He takes his time and goes over everything with a fine tooth comb to ensure that every aspect of your home has been inspected and have been reviewed to ensure that there are no problems. And if there is a problem, you are aware of the problem and he gives you a plan of action to correct the issue. PLEASE GIVE THIS MAN A RAISE‼️ I only want to work with him because he is very knowledgeable about what’s going on with your home.

Foundation Experts in Columbia

Your foundation and crawl space supports can be weakened for several reasons, but the weather and soil conditions usually play an important role. Columbia, located near the geographical center of the state, has a hot humid subtropical climate. Columbia, and the surrounding areas of Imo, Cayce, West Columbia, are some of the hottest cities in the state. The areas relative low elevation, its location in the Sandhills region, and its distance from the Atlantic Ocean, all contribute to the areas inability to moderate its temperature. 

Your home’s foundation, basement or crawl space, and concrete can fall victim to these hot, humid conditions. Problem signs like uneven floors and musty smells are often the first sign of a crawl space problem. These issues occur when trapped moisture below your floors cause mold and mildew growth, weakening your homes structural integrity. The soil in the region is a mix of sand and clay. The soil with more sand has helpful draining properties, but areas with more clay, grab and absorb water. Clay soil saturates quickly and becomes heavy. Wet soil is heavy and causes hydrostatic pressure. This pressure against your foundation wall can cause cracking, bowing, and leaking.

You take pride your Columbia home, so protect it with the leading foundation repair products. The professionals at Mount Valley Foundation Services have proven foundation, basement, crawl space, and concrete solutions. Tested around the country and right in your back yard, you can rest assure you are in good hands.
