Description of Work: They put in 14 Smart Jacks in 2008 and then didn't follow up with to make adjustments. Then when I finally called them because of cracks continuing in my walls (which was the original reason I had them put the jacks in) they sent a technician out who just "tightened the jacks" by feel and whom didn't check for height or level of the floor joists. I called back and they said the tech didn't do it right and they'd call me back; they didn't. I called them back two weeks later and they said...oh...we're sorry, let me get someone there. They stood me up and I had to call to back to get another appointment. This tech seemed to at least check the level and found more than 4 of the 14 jacks loose...not holding the house at all (only 3 weeks from the other tech). Bottom line, I think I've been scammed and I paid over $12K for nothing. I still have seasonal cracks and wall to ceiling separation; nothing seems to have changed with $12K expended.

Description of Work: Jes Installed drain tray,all around the basement, installed two sumps in landray room,They moved outside location sump to the inside. dug a new drain outside to route sub surface foundation water and pipe it to the inside sump pumps. Filled in old sumpwell and resurface area. I had have my elect/mech put in to seperate plugs for sump pumps. Crew removed flooring by walls dug under paneling walls, installed water trays, they removed shelving in closets,and flooring to install tray. Concreted area and had to cure for week. checked out system. Came back in one week and relayed floor and put shelves back in closets, Cleaned up area.Crew did great job. Considering that dilling was a dusty job, they cleaned pretty well. My sons came back put the place back in order and cleaned up the the area. I didn't expect JES to do all the clean up as the furniture was out of place. Also JES put two 1 1/2 pipe to carry the water to the side yard where there is a natural path to Street. The job was done about two years ago and every thing is working ok, I've aready gave Jes a possible customer and I'm not afraid to recommend JES to new people.

Estimated Cost: 2000.00
Description of Work: Called JES for inspection of crawl space and received a quote of about 2000 to install two Smartjacks to prop up one of the main beams supporting the house. The shims of both major beams actually needed to be repaired, which the inspector didnt notice, so it would have been closer to 4000 to support both beams. Feel that the inspector rushed through the inspection a bit and missed the main cause of the foundation issue which was able to be resolved for much less. Inspector did show up on time, provided the quote quickly, was willing to answer questions and had a video demonstrating the smart jack system.

Thank you for inviting us into your home for your FREE inspection. Its unusual for a customer to feel that our Inspector "rushed" through his inspection, as they normally a lot at least tow hours or more for meeting with the customer and providing a thorough inspection. However, we would be happy to return for free and discuss the issues you feel we had overlooked.

[member name removed], thank you for inviting us into your home to help find a solution.We're so happy you took the time to post your positive experience and results working with JES! We install thousands of jobs per year and have equally as many happy, satisfied customers that we have been able to help. However it seems the very small number of customers that might have an issue are the ones that normally post on Angie's List, not the large majority of satisfied customers. Its refreshing, and encouraging, to see your testimony to the high level of service that JES works to achieve with every homeowner.
