"Removed old water heater and installed new water heater and brought water heater up to code. They arrived on time and performed the work efficiently and neatly. The price for the direct vent water heater plus installation was about $250 less than another local quote. Overall I am very satisfied with the price and quality of the installation."

"I have nothing negative to say about the whole process from the initial inspection to the completion of the project. Their quoted price for the project was not the highest or the lowest I had received, but I selected Mount Valley because I never felt pressured to agree to a discounted price valid only for a short period of time, and the solution that they proposed to take care of my crawl space made the most sense to me. The installation crew was efficient and cleaned up any debris. You might found a cheaper company, but pay attention to the specification of the material used and the overall proposed solution. For such a project I got three quotes, and found very comfortable working with Mount Valley Foundation from start to finish."

"Water supply line to house burst in the front yard, sending a geyser of water over two story house.  Single plumber from company arrived earlier than promised the next morning and quickly provided several options for solving problem:
1) Replace section of water line with break
2) Replace water line from water meter to break and add pressure regulator (our water pressure was over code-level).
3) Replace entire line and add pressure regulator.
Originally chose option 2, but when line was unearthed was found to be sub-standard plastic line with several older patches.
Entire line was replaced with copper and pressure regulator added. 
During job, improperly repaired section of broken sewer line was found.  This section was replaced and clean-out valve added . 
Plumber was knowledgeable, gave us several options and was frank about developments as the day went on.  He worked very hard all day to get our water and sewer back in working order, including digging the entire line by hand (trencher was not available) and getting the work inspected and the trench covered by the end of the day.  Very happy with the speed and quality of work.  20 year warranty included.
Obviously not happy about having to spend this amount of money for a repair.  It is infuriating to pay to repair the substandard work that was apparently done or endorsed by the house's previous owner.  However, with no other estimate to compare this price to, I cannot knowledgeably comment on the price, so have marked it N/A.  With that qualification, the price does NOT seem excessive for quality, speed and amount of work done.

Septic Repairs
Holy cow!! We found it!
Almost looks like we didn't just install 400' of 4'' Storm Drainage to save the septic system from near total failure.

Sometimes excessive storm water can wreak havoc on a septic system and cause the system to break down prematurely. 
The septic system was drowning, we suggested diverting the storm water to protect the septic tank & field lines. Problem Solved.

"Tuck & Howell was responsive and timely in both the initial service call and in the repair work. They were cooperative when we had to delay the work multiple times. The repair work was done for half of the estimate we got from another company and we have had no problems since the repair. The workers were professional and considerate."

FAQs for sump pump or interior foundation drains installation projects in Pickens, SC

Most residential pumps draw approximately 1,300 to 2,900 watts when they first start, then settle at roughly 800 to 1,050 watts during normal operation. The exact number depends on the motor’s horsepower and how often the float switch tells the pump to run. Even at the high end, the electricity cost is minor compared with the expense of cleaning up a flooded basement.

Grab a ruler and an empty 18‑inch‑wide pit. During a steady rain, time how much the water rises in one minute. Multiply that depth (in inches) by 60 to calculate gallons per hour, then add 50% for safety. If the result tops 2,100 gallons per hour—about 35 gallons a minute—you’ll need a 3/4‑horsepower unit. Anything lower, and a 1/3- or 1/2-horsepower pump should do the trick.

Loud rattling, constant cycling, or shuddering vibrations are the pump’s way of telling you it’s on its last legs. Musty smells, higher electric bills, and visible rust are other red flags. If the unit is 10 years old or older and exhibits any of these symptoms, replace it before the next heavy rain turns your basement into a wading pool.

You don’t have to hire a licensed plumber, but you should still bring in someone who installs sump pumps for a living—whether that’s a plumber, basement‑waterproofing specialist, or experienced handyman. They know the local codes, can wire the pump safely, and will test the system before they leave. Skipping professional help might void the warranty and could leave you with a pump that fails when you need it most.

Not every basement needs a pump, but if your home sits in a floodplain, has a high water table, or has ever taken on water during a storm, a sump pump is inexpensive insurance. For basements that only struggle with condensation or the occasional damp spot, sealing cracks and improving drainage may be all that is needed.
