Living in Savannah and noticing cracked concrete? It’s likely due to humidity and the high water table. Explore repair options with Mount Valley on this page.
Savannah is a beautiful city filled with rich history and lovely architecture. Unfortunately, the weather and climate of the city doesn’t always follow suit. Often, the summers are hot and humid, and the high water table puts the area at risk of damage. Moisture can damage more than the exterior of a building and can also wreak havoc on concrete. Damaged concrete becomes a safety hazard to both you and your loved ones as it cracks or becomes uneven. Here, we’ll explore all the problem signs, causes, and solutions related to concrete damage. Mount Valley is here to serve Savannah homeowners!

Concrete problem signs are easy to identify for residents of Savannah. When concrete becomes damaged, it often shows up on the surface. Look for cracked or uneven sections of concrete. Furthermore, you should keep an eye out for pitting, flaking, and staining, as these indicate a deeper issue with the concrete’s structural integrity. Be aware, these issues may also show up on concrete steps and pool decks – places where injury is more likely to happen.
Since Savannah is a mostly humid place, soil is often saturated with moisture. Mix this together with the high water table and heavy rains of the southeast, and you have the perfect conditions for concrete damage. When soil gets too wet, it can experience soil washout. This is when soil becomes eroded and muddy, making it harder to support the weight of concrete structures. Concrete may sink into the soil under these conditions which causes it to crack. Also, since much of the soil in Georgia contains clay, rain can actually cause the soil to expand and push up onto the concrete. As it continues to grow, sections of your home’s concrete may become uneven.
Concrete Leveling Solutions in Savannah
Mount Valley uses PolyRenewal™, a polyurethane foam injection system that lifts and stabilizes any cracked, uneven sections of concrete around your property. PolyRenewal™ is a better concrete lifting solution than other methods due to its lightweight yet durable design. This solution can easily support the weight of concrete as it expands into the voids below. Even better, the material is water-resistant, so heavy rain and humidity in Savannah won’t cause it to break down. PolyRenewal™ can also be used to repair pool decks and unlevel steps around your property with the same great results.

My termite bond company alerted me to an extremely high humidity problem in my crawl space. Mold and wood rot were going to be a problem if we did not get it under control so an encapsulation was needed. I called 3 different companies to come and quote the job. Jack Jeffords from Mount Valley came and gave me a no nonsense estimate of what needed to be done. He proposed exactly what was necessary and didn't pad the quote with a bunch of extras that would drive the cost up. MTVS has a low price guarantee stating that they will match any other competitors quote for like for like work and beat it by $100. Encapsulation done properly is not an inexpensive situation. That being said they beat one of the competitors quotes by $10,000 and met the price of the other lowest price that I had received. Jack and his manager worked with me to get the lowest possible cost and I felt really confident with Mount Valley as a organization.A deposit was paid and the work was scheduled about a month away. I got a phone call from the office asking if I would like an earlier date and I said yes. They had a job that had gotten postponed and I was able to take that slot about 3 weeks earlier than scheduled.On the morning of my appointment I was greeted by the job foreman Alex and his assistant Roderick. These guys were great in every respect. My crawl space is quite low and difficult, only 2' at it's tallest point. These two guys attacked it without a complaint and in quick order had the old vapor barrier pulled out and the trash and debris removed and bagged up. They began to wrap the 21 piers and cover the foundation walls with their 20 mil plastic. Then they covered the crawl space floor and the taping process began. On the third day David came and was part of the work crew as well. These guys were all very friendly hard working sharp fellows and were a joy to work with!I am 100% pleased with the whole experience and highly recommend Mount Valley Foundation Service. They will do a great job for you and won't try to oversell or take advantage of you.Thanks MVFS for fixing my problem and protecting my home.

We had Mount Vally come out to fix some of our floor joists and subfloor under our master bedroom and bathroom after we had water damage from a broken water pipe. Everyone I spoke with was super helpful and friendly from John who came out for our quote to Chris who helped get us financed to pay for the project. I am kicking myself for not being able to remember the Forman and his crewmen’s names that came out to do the work because they were awesome! They worked efficiently and quickly to get the job done and when a problem came up, they let me know immediately and we got it worked out quickly to keep the project going. I thought there would be a ton of noise and in and out of the house but these guys were so quiet I had to check on them from time to time to see if they were still here only to be amazed at how much work they got done. They made sure everything was cleaned up when they were done and put back the way it was. Will definitely be referring people to Mount Vally and more than likely hiring them to come back out for more projects! Thanks guys! If I could give more than 5 stars, I would!

Mount Valley Foundation did a wonderful job on our crawl space. From the beginning, Clint was very easy to understand & gave us affordable options. The encapsulation only took 3 days & the crew finished up the third evening at 7:00 pm, just in time before Helene came. Our home usually would have flooded during a storm like this, but with Mount Valleys installation of the draining pipes, the water was pumped out successfully. The crew that did the installation was wonderful as well, thank you to Donovan Rougeaux, Isaiah Davis, & Cory Phillips for the quick installation.
