"The team, led by Trevor, and assisted by Kenny, Terrell and Garrett, worked very well together to accomplish the work we needed done to alleviate water coming into our crawlspace. They were courteous, friendly, professional, and did not hesitate to answer all our questions and explain the process thoroughly. Trevor and team brought other problems to our attention which we have decided to have Mount Valley repair also. Trevor and Shawn helped us get the process going to replace floor joist damaged by water. I would recommend Mount Valley if you have foundation issues that need expert repairs!"

"Richard came out to our house less than 30 minutes after I called for help. He was professional, quick, knowledgeable and friendly. He even installed our new garbage disposal in the kitchen while he was here. I can not thank him enough for rescuing us."

"We had a pool installed in July. Now we are creating our outdoor living space. Other than time management its been great working with Bryan. He stays late to get the job completed and his pricing was the best I got out of 7 quotes. I then hired him to install a pump in my backyard and that too has went well. Currently, he is working on my filtration/aggeration issues to stop the rainwater from washing away my backyard. Bryan is always polite and patient to explain our choices and the cost benefits of them. I appreciate his text of photos & website for clairty. He's very thorough and always cleans up after himself. He recently hired an office assistant, so hopefully that will make a huge difference in his scheduled appointments & communication."

"Called him on a Monday and the job was done by Thursday. Courteous and honest. Used his $425 roof inspection plan. Inspected my whole roof along with the repair work I needed. Buttoned up some siding issues that we also needed. Got the job done for way less than I thought it would be."

Basement Waterproofing questions, answered by experts

Regular inspections, maintaining proper grading around the foundation, and keeping gutters clear are advisable. Vapor barriers and sealants may need checking for wear after several years.

External pressure on the basement wall can cause it to bow inward. Soil, heavy with water saturation, is commonly the main culprit. The soil exerts immense pressure on the wall, causing it to fail, at least partially. This is known as hydrostatic pressure—these situations can occur after rainfall or simply due to regular groundwater presence and may be temporary or more permanent.  

Preventative measures, such as maintaining drainage systems, installing sump pumps, inspecting roofs regularly, and crafting comprehensive emergency plans, can help mitigate future risks.

A plastic vapor barrier should completely cover your basement to prevent water from penetrating through the walls. This typically goes before installing insulation to prevent moisture from building up and becoming trapped on the inside of your insulation, where it can collect and lead to mold damage. Installing insulation after the vapor barrier allows for any moisture to exit the walls for better ventilation.

Waterproofing or encapsulating protects against moisture, preventing mold growth and structural damage. These services also enhance energy efficiency and improve air quality by keeping humidity levels in check.
