"I will start by saying that the work they did waterproofing our basement looks good, and I am hopeful that it has fixed our problem. We've had a good bit of rain recently, and so far, so good. That, of course, is the most important thing. That said, I chose this company, even though they were on the high range of the quotes I received, because I did not mind paying more for a professional experience and great customer service. I was disappointed with this aspect of the experience. The day they were scheduled to begin they never showed up, and I ended up calling them three times that day. The woman in the office was responsive, but she said that they did not know where they were. The next scheduled appointment was for the morning, and they did not end up coming until 2pm, again without any communication. Both instances were due to car issues, but a phone call to keep me updated would have been appreciated to allow me to better plan my day. When they did start the work the crew leader was friendly and appeared to know what he was doing, but he offered little information about the job unless I asked. Prior to the work being done, I also had to keep after the sales representative to put their warranty in writing. Twice he promised to email it to me, and only after contacting him a third time did he send it through. If I had not paid so much (over $11,000) I would have given them another star, but at this price point my expectations were high."

"The team of Will S,, Brady M., Louis F., and Darrell D., provided SUPERIOR service. They were prompt in arriving, courteous, professional, knowledgeable, and friendly throughout our installation of spherical piers to stabilize our sinking foundation. Cleanup was excellent and pace of work was amazing. My ENTIRE experience from my first phone call to the completion of the job was without flaw or drama. I will definitely use them again, if necessary, and I will DEFINITELY recommend Mount Valley to anyone who needs any of their services. Special Kudos to Willâ s team!!"

"This was a detached garage and I only wanted some blown in insulation, but the sales person did not mention baffles to keep insulation away from soffit vents. Installers were prepared, courteous, professional and had enough material to do the job right, but the installation was more than I had expected since the baffles were left out of the quote. Installation was done well and has performed great on these hot days."

"I got 3 estimates for encapsulating my crawlspace;  Two of the estimates were similar in price (Inc Crawlspace Doctor) and one was out of consideration (10K+).   I decided to go with Crawlspace Doctor for Three main reasons 1) Greg provided very detailed information about the process and spent a lot of time answering any questions  2) Greg encapsulates the space with foam board vs. spray foam which I preferred  3) Price was competitive to the other bid I had for similar service.
My home is 2400 sq ft ranch style, and I decided to encapsulate the space after I noticed some mold growth on the floor joists in the crawlspace.  Greg's team offers a cleaning and sanitization of the joists which was a top priority for me in having this work done.
Greg's team was on time, and they did an incredible job preparing the crawlspace for the liner (raking, leveling, digging the two trench lines to the drainage sump that was installed as part of the job).  They sprayed and lightly scrubbed the joists and the joists look 90% better.  They installed the liner on the walls and then the foam board and sealed all of the vents.  After that, the liner was installed on the floor including an area of double liner where we store a few things in the space.  Finally, the dehumidifier was installed (Greg's team built a platform for the unit so it's in the air and I have to say the unit is very quiet and seems well built).
Greg has taken care of a few extra issues when promised (sealing the door and taking care of one issue with the dehumidifier). 
Greg and his team did an excellent job overall.  I am very pleased with the work.  I also believe from working with Greg that he will help with any future concerns associated with the work (he takes a lot of pride in these installations).  I would recommend this group to anyone considering having crawlspace work performed.

"Travis saved us a ton of money by giving us a straight answer on repairing the existing garage foundation versus tearing down and starting over with our detached garage. He certainly could have stood to make more money by just going with our original plan to repair the existing slab garage foundation, but he instead told us what he would do if it were his home. We really appreciate his honesty and will certainly hire CNT Foundations when we start over on this old garage!"

"We found Cantey Foundations to be the solution to our sagging floors and cracking walls - even after speaking with some of the other popular alternatives. Our team, consisting of Dallas, Corey, David, Dallas and Alex((2 Dallases),were professional, knowledgeable, polite and efficient. Not only did we see a definite change in the sloping floors, but the cracks closed up and doors stopped sticking. When the crew was done, they cleaned up everything. Although it is only a week since the work, we do not have any concerns because of Cantey's warranty, which guarantees the work for 25 years. We were able to put off other recommended work for a later date, and plan to take advantage of that when our pocketbook allows. I will have no problem calling them back."

FAQs for foundation, basement or crawlspace waterproofing / encapsulation projects in Charleston, SC

Yes, crawl space encapsulation is a good investment. It improves your home's energy efficiency and air quality, boosting its value. With routine inspections and maintenance, encapsulation provides a long-lasting solution to moisture and pest issues. Regular check-ups protect your investment, enhance energy efficiency, and maintain your home's structural integrity. If your home is prone to pests or moisture seepage, encapsulating your crawl space is definitely worth it.

A vapor barrier is a thin sheet of plastic that prevents moisture from seeping into your crawl space, while insulation prevents unconditioned air from entering. Combining both insulation and a vapor barrier creates a dry, temperature-stable environment. Some insulation products serve both purposes, enhancing energy efficiency and protecting against moisture and temperature fluctuations.
