Mike came to carry out the annual inspection of our house to ensure no settlement had occurred since JES had fixed our foundation issues a few years ago. He explained everything very clearly and made sure I could see for myself how the laser showed perfect alignment still. He was very thorough and most personable. I look forward to seeing him again next year.
Description of Work: The work for this visit was part of the warranty coverage for the foundation underpinning performed a few years ago. There was no additional charge for this visit.

Abdul Jalloh is a tremendous field inspector. He is professional, courteous and a good communicator. He carefully explained the big scope of the job and the details. He continued to answer all my questions to my satisfaction. Abdul has a strong knowledge of the housing and engineering areas of the project. He provided options. Abdul provided the trust factor I needed to have JES perform the work needed. I highly recommend the company and you would benefit from having Abdul as your field inspector.

Mr John and Jeremiah were absolutely fantastic! Today they just had a small job but they did it really well and they were extremely polite! They even took some extra dirt that I had and put it to the side for me to use in my yard. I look forward to having them back to do some other work. I would most certainly recommend Jes based off this experience.

For years, I've dealt with water infiltration in my basement, which unfortunately led to black mold due to delayed repairs. Recognizing the need for change, especially with plans to replace the flooring, I sought solutions and contacted JES along with another company. JES's proposal appeared to offer a more permanent fix, and Howard Glancy's professional, detailed explanation of the underlying issues convinced me of their expertise. Despite the higher cost and complexity, I chose JES. The team, comprising Daniel Yacila, Alexander Falcon, and Pedro Llontop, was exceptional. They diligently executed Howard's plan, addressing my concerns with care. When complexities arose, they brought in supervisor Manny Chavez, whose calm and clear explanations provided the reassurance I needed as a woman living alone. The project is now complete, backed by a lifetime guarantee, and the crew's meticulous cleanup left my basement looking better than ever. I am thoroughly satisfied with the outcome.

Today I met with Howard Glancy from JES Foundation Repair regarding the outside water seepage problem in my house. The water is coming in the bottom-level of my 3-story townhouse (end unit). My townhouse is the last unit located on the bottom of a hill. I also have standing water in my back yard every time it rains. Howard has very impressive credentials and is an expert in his field. After an inspection of the problem area, Howard gave me a very detailed explanation of what needed to be done to fix the problem. The water is coming in up from the ground underneath my house. The previous day I had a meeting with a representative from a different company who said it would be a simple fix with just a french drain on the side of my house. Howard explained why a french drain would not fix the underlying problem. I have decided to go with JES Foundation Repair and feel confident that I made the right choice.
Description of Work: Foundation issues. Water seepage on the lower level of my house. I also decided to address the standing water issue in my back yard for an additional cost.

The job JES started in our home in June remains unfinished. We have tried emailing and calling the company's "production department" which never responds or simply hangs up on us when we call. We are disappointed that we never received the full services we paid for and our original concern, a mildew smell in our crawlspace, remains completely unaddressed after they convinced us to pay for an industrial-strength dehumidifier. JES Foundation talks a big talk, but they do not perform. Hire someone else.

We hired JES to stabilize the footers, slab floors, and a very large stone fireplace in the center of our home. This was a major project due to the age and structure of our home and it involved a considerable amount of work inside and outside of the home. Our salesman, Howard Glancy spent a considerable amount of time with us going over every detail and carefully explaining what needed to be done in order to achieve the results we desired. Our project manager, Moises Paz did an outstanding job informing us about what we should expect during the project as well as answering questions along the way. The foundation repair team (Jose Lopez (foreman), Victorino Joya, Daniel Yacila, Irvin Franco) that were responsible for installing the 13 push piers and 19 slab piers needed to stabilize the footers, slab floors, and a fireplace were always very professional and accommodating. This hardworking team arrived each day as scheduled, they answered questions, kept us informed on each stage of the job, and always left the job site neat. JES could not have assigned a better team to complete this portion of our project. I can’t thank them enough for helping make the experience manageable for us. The team responsible for injecting the poly filler under our home’s slab (Austin Hicks and Caleb Barron) were also very professional. They too arrived as scheduled, explained the process and answered questions. They even went above and beyond by injecting some poly filler under a small portion of my driveway that had sunk – free of charge! If I could give JES more than the 5 stars allowed, I would. We will definitely hire JES for any future projects should they arise.

Efficient and professional. Rudy's team kept attention on details while installing the push piers required to shore up part of our home. We also had Brian and Austin doing some excellent work raising the concrete in the addition.
Description of Work: Multiple push piers needed to be installed and concrete needed to be lifted. Unfortunately to do this we had to remove and later rebuild a very long deck at the side of the house. Because of that, our total cost ended up close to double what we show paid to JES.
