JES Foundation Repair

Great! Vince and Nick were fantastic. They exceeded my expectations. They were friendly, punctual, and professional. I’d asked to add on a service but that info wasn’t given to them before they arrived and they were accommodating in giving me an estimate and getting the work done while they were here.

Vince Gardner and Nick Pike did an awesome job.

JES did an efficient and effective job of raising our driveway and front steps. Excellent results.

The team was courteous and they kept me informed during every step of the process.

Great experience from the initial inspection to the final inspection. Crew was friendly, arrived on schedule and completed the job early. No complaints.

The project went very well. I did not know what the problem was so I contacted JES. They sent an estimator to diagnose the problem. He asked me questions and then analyzed the site. He explained there were no signs of damage to the outer foundation wall and that the cracks in the floor suggested that space had developed between the bottom of the slab and the dirt below. He showed me the "tilt" (my term) in the floor on either side of the cracks. I scheduled a concrete lift package. Another company did the internal utility marking. The project was conducted by Vince, who was punctual, professional, hardworking, and helpful. Overall, I rate this as a very successful engagement. There is a 5-year warranty, which I won't need if the solution proves to be as good as the service.

They did a great job and saved my porch and house from what could have resulted in severe damage.

I am still waiting for them to get it right and fix the issue . The structure foundation is not completed, Failed inspection for 4 to 5 times. The walls and the floors cannot be completed my kitchen and bathroom because its not secure. They started the job September 2020 and its already May 2021. I have no functional kitchen and bathroom since September 2020 to present and this really an inconvenient. This is the first time to put a review because I have more than patient to them.

My first experience with JES was exceptional and superb. Howard Glancy was able to give me a meticulous and comprehensive overview of what needed to be done to my home in order to rectify the dire situation it is currently in. I have great hopes that JES can resolve my home's foundation issues.

Went excellent. Concrete slabs at garage doors had settled 3 to 6 inches. I had to build ramps in order to pull cars into garage bays. The concrete jacking has solved that issue. No more ramps needed. Excellent JES staff provided the service. And the work is guaranteed for 5 years. How often do you see that in this industry?!

JES has done multiple projects (inside and out) at our Capitol Hill home for 20 years, and we continue to go back to them due to employees like James Teixeira, the JES General Manager in the Manassas, VA, location. James is exceptional. His professionalism, and his extensive knowledge of construction and of waterproofing are impressive. James was instrumental in fixing a complicated issue at our house. Equally important to us was his personal character - his integrity, kindness, and incredible patience (again, it was a complex and time sensitive project). He is respectful towards everyone. We have dealt with dozens of contractors/vendors in the DC metro area, and James Teixeira is truly one of the best. He is thorough, very responsive, and he goes above and beyond. Construction and water issues can be extremely stressful, but when you are in James' care, his competence and commitment to customer satisfaction give you peace mind. We are most grateful for James and JES.

03/15/21 RUN FROM THIS COMPANY! Horrible customer service and bad reviews. Our neighbors used them, very dissatisfied with the work, and can not get them to return their phone calls or make good on the BAD work. We signed a contract with them and cancelled within the 3 day period. They would not issue the refund until we spoke with the salesperson. When I said there was no reason to speak with the salesperson, they transferred me to him anyway. The sales personal was rude and unprofessional and wanted to argue about the cancellation and then he hung-up. We called our credit card company and filed a dispute to get our deposit refunded. Please read the reviews, they will tell you all you need to know about JES. Below is an example of the unprofessional, irresponsible culture of the JES company. When a certified, return receipt requested letter was mailed to JES Company requesting a full refund of our deposit, the signature on the delivery receipt is “COVID19.” Just another example of the way JES does business. The deposit was received, but only after threatening JES with a law suit and contacting our local TV station.

Our front stoop was sagging a bit and our neighbor referred JES. Bryan and Austin were very professional and knowledgeable. They knocked out the job in about an hour. I would highly recommend them!

Bryan Rutherford and Austin Rutherford was on time for the job. They were very professional. They explained the job to be done and performed it with ease. Very pleasant encounter.

had front porch lifted with injected foam. Bryan and Austin Rutherford led the work and did a great job explaining what they were going to do, and walking through the results and answering any questions i had afterwards. In addition, had underground drain pipes installed on all four corners of house, great job.

I used JES once before this for crawlspace encapsulation and they did a great job, so I called them again when I needed structural work under my house and a new dehumidifier for my large crawlspace. The team was led by Rafael and Kendall who did an excellent job and left the area cleaner than it started when they were done. Overall I was very pleased with the service.

Two sets of piers (one on front side and other on the side) were installed 4 months a part. Both installations went well. One side of the house was 1 3/4" lower than the other. JES was able lift that side 1" to reduce asymmetry. Jaime and DeShawn were incredibly professional and detailed in their explanations when we had questions.

Jes was actually more expensive then a couple other proposals we received, but my wife and I were most imprest with their presentation and their proposed engineering technology fix. They spent 3 hours reviewing/accessing the basement issue and drafted cost and contract during this initial visit (no waiting for call back with a proposal). The team who did the work were highly knowledgable, polite, unobtrusive, and left the basement spotless after completing their work. We were extremely pleased with the entire process and happy we went with the more costly proposal.

Excellant service from beginning to completion. Entire project explained on initial visit and then again by the service technicians.

Marvelous. Expectations were set with the initial visit. Follow up was provided. Work started as schedule. The team was wonderful and answered all of my questions. They were as careful as possible to keep my house clean beyond the expected dust and dirt. I would recommend them to anyone.

Very good, they came in worked hard to do what they said they were going to do and left everything well done. All professionals and very respectful. Thank you!

Wonderful. They did a fantastic job.

I was express at first when they came out the gentleman was very professional and very nice. I was told he would get back with me in a couple days cause the problem I was having with my foundation he need to discuss it with peoples in the company and he was going to a class within a couple of days and he was going to use my house fir advice on correcting the problem... I waited over week and he never called or email me so I called him and left a message he never replied so I then called the company and they’had him to send my proposal over and no one never follow up on the proposal and discuss how we would address the foundation problem or to discuss any questions I might have... NEVER HEARD FROM THEM AGAIN.... I gave a review to soon on this company. I gave my review on the initial first visit and nothing had been done besides taking measurements and survey the property... I don’t feel comfortable I wouldn’t use this company due to lack of communication and no response and no follow up....

I've had four previous foundation contractors come to the house who performed inspections of the foundation and all gave different answers. Howard Glancy with JES was the first to expertly use laser measurements and moisture readings to accurately diagnose the problem. His detailed explanations of the issues matched the readings and physical signs of the problems(cracked bricks, drywall, some mold, and bowing basement wall). He certainly gained my trust where the others did not and although extremely expensive, the costs did not seem unreasonable given the work that needed to be done to properly secure and waterproof my foundation and I signed the contract with JES. Hopefully the job will be as effective and professional as the inspection.

My consultation was with Howard Glancy. He spent a great deal of time and my house, took detailed measurements and photographs, and thoroughly explained his findings to me. He offered advice on prioritizing the work to be done, pricing options, and a same-day estimate and contract. I called back within a day two to schedule JES for another project on my list. Since this initial consultation, he has been very responsive to my emailed questions and concern.
