"Our experience with Mt Valley Foundation was outstanding. Patrick E., the Ceritified Field Inspector, conducted a very thorough inspection of our crawlspace. Then he presented us with all of the details and photographs of his inspection. He spent an hour answering all of our questions and then presented us with our options for our sagging floors and foundation structural repair. His expertise was invaluable. The installation crew, Joe and Stephen, were prompt, courteous and very professional. Joe, called and texted us to let us know that they were arriving soon. Upon arrival, he posted the work permit and then discussed, in detail, including pictures, what they were about to do. After installing the steel beams and IntelliJack support system, our sagging floors and baseboards were returned to normal. When they were finished, they discussed what they had done and provided pictures of the completed work. Great job Joe and Stephen! We highly recommend Mt Valley Foundation in Charleston."

"The service was great. They were very good. They put everything behind. I would recommend them. They were thorough. They were well dressed. They went above and beyond removing the appliances, lockers, and heavy things. They replace the toilets without extra cause."

"Matt and his team did a great job encapsulating my crawl space. He is very professional and offered several solutions in order to help me get the project done within my budget. He is extremely professional and was very flexible when we had to change our work date due to an unforeseen issue on my end. They showed up on time, did excellent work and when they left you could not even tell that they had been here. His price was by far the best of any of the other companies that I contacted and I HIGHLY recommend him if you need work done. He is a great American who has served our country in the military!"

"Craig Fine kept me updated on progress and any problems found along the way. We had termite damage which he repaired but then we had several other projects done by Craig such as replacing the asphalt roof with metal. Will be hiring Craig again."

"Mr. Barney was booked up and wanted to fit me in sometime next week but told him that my grandmother had passed away and I would be out of town so we can plan for the following week but Mr. Barney said no he would fit me in this week and came and did the great job that he did on Saturday.. That really touched my heart.. When he got here he took down and replaced the microwave in no time, then onto my closet, he was able to reuse the rack that had fell initially and he made sure that everything I needed to replace the rack he had with him so I wouldn't have to get anything. He put the rack up made sure it was anchored into the studs this time and fixed all the holes in the wall that the other rack had caused. Also upon coming into the door in the kitchen through the garage he noticed my door frame was loose and needed to be fixed he repaired this for me at no extra charge.. Mr. Barney is the best handyman ever and from this point forward he will be the one I use. Thanks Angie's list for having such great deals and people that carry them out. Again thank you Mr. Barney for the great job you done and the compassion you showed me by fitting me in due to the passing of my grandmother, I'm very satisfied customer!!!! <br />"

"I feel Commonwealth Contracting is very easy to work with. Mike Eippert always responds to any questions we may have had during the process of the work. This is the second major renovation we have had done with "Commonwealth" and both times we were very happy with the results. I will say you need to be patient with how long the project may take. We realized all of these contractors are extremely very busy at this time. However, quality was much more important to me than speed, and all of the work we had done is outstanding. As far as price they are not the cheapest nor the most expensive, however, I feel comfortable that what we paid for the complete renovation was very fair. To me "Quality" of work done is most important and that is what "Commonwealth" provides."

Mr. Edward was prompt, professional, knew what they were doing and made me feel comfortable and confident in their work if I knew this company before I would had done my entire kitchen renewal that how amazing they are. I highly recommend this company, Mr. Ed and his team for any job, nothing to big to tackle you won’t be disappointed. ~A. S."

FAQs for basement remodeling projects in Sullivans Island, SC

Finishing a basement turns unused square footage into livable space and returns up to 70% of what you spend when you sell your home. Beyond that resale boost, you gain a playroom, home office, or guest suite you can start enjoying right away. That mix of daily comfort and solid return on investment (ROI) makes basement finishing one of the smartest upgrades you can tackle.

In some parts of the country—especially lots on swamps, high water tables, or other wetlands—local codes prohibit basements. Saturated soil puts constant pressure on foundation walls and lets water seep in faster than any sump pump can handle. 

If your property sits on waterlogged ground, building on a slab or crawl space is often safer, more affordable, and code-compliant.

Most basements wrap up in four to eight weeks. Framing takes three to five days, with electrical and plumbing rough-ins following over the next week. Add five days for drywall, two to three for flooring, and another week for paint, trim, and punch-list items. 

Delays can happen if materials run late or your contractor’s calendar is packed, so build in a little cushion when you plan.

Whether a finished basement counts toward your home’s official square footage depends on local rules. Many areas only include below-grade space if it has code-approved egress, fully finished walls, ceilings, and floors, plus consistent heating. 

Check with your local assessor or building department before you start; meeting those standards can affect taxes, appraisals, and resale value.

Building codes require a checklist: dedicated heat and electrical service, a code-approved stairway, and at least one egress window or exterior door. Walls, ceilings, and floors must be fully finished and meet insulation, ventilation, and fire-separation standards. If you add a bedroom, you’ll also need a closet, proper clearances, and safe exits. If you change the layout later, be ready to update the space so every new room still meets today’s code.
