"We were in need of a repair to our front porch/sidewalk landing which had developed a crack at the connection point, and would require a lift of the sunken portion. I reached out to two repair companies for an inspection and free quote. The first appointment was with JES Foundation Repair and their representative, Blake Snidow. From the wording and "tone" of his very first text, I was already impressed with Blake. The phone call with him that followed was as equally professional, pleasant and kind. We set up the appointment for him to come to the house. He assessed our situation, suggested the probable cause and explained how it could be properly fixed so that the possibility of it reoccurring would be slim to none. He clearly explained the process, the product to be used, the anticipated time of repair and answered our countless questions. He did an exceptional job of diagraming, photographing, inspection of the entire perimeter of the property, the yard soil itself, and probably more that we didn't even pick up on, all so that the repair team would have the best possibility of knowing what to expect upon arrival. He listened ever so patiently and was very sensitive to our concern about a possible exorbitant cost, since we are retired seniors now on a fixed income. He led us ever so patiently (without pressure) down the path of all considerations and possibilities, including various payment options. He was not in a mad rush to price and run, but took time to not only ensure that we were completely comfortable with every aspect of the job to be done, the contract wording, and payment arrangement, but to also allow us time to get to know one another. I cannot say enough about how impressed we were with this young man. It was so refreshing to see such maturity, honesty, superb communication skills, respect, patience, sincerity and kindness at his age. What a remarkable representative for the company Blake is! We felt so comfortable with the whole process (which ultimately led to the signing of a contract for the work to be done) that we decided to cancel the appointment with the other company that was scheduled to come a week later. Our job is set to be done in a couple weeks, so we cannot yet speak to our satisfaction or dissatisfaction with the completed job; however, we both feel very confident that it will be done right and to our standards. And we are both VERY picky. It was so wonderful to meet you Blake! Keep up the great work!!"

Types of Concrete Damage in Glen Allen

Common Causes of your Concrete Problems in Glen Allen

Have you noticed your driveway or sidewalk starting to shift, dip, or crack? Homes in this area are often subject to soil dynamics that can lead to concrete settling problems. In and around Glen Allen, a blend of clay-rich soils and seasonal moisture fluctuations can significantly impact the stability of your concrete surfaces. When rain infiltrates these soil types, it can cause them to expand, while dry periods lead them to contract. This cycle of expansion and contraction creates voids beneath concrete slabs, making them vulnerable to settling and cracking over time.

In response to these shifting soils, many homes locally exhibit signs of stress on their concrete surfaces. These include visible cracks, uneven walkways, and pooling water. Slightly uneven slabs might seem like a minor nuisance, but if ignored, they can escalate, potentially leading to structural damage to your property. Acting early to address these issues is crucial, as timely intervention not only enhances safety but also preserves the appearance and longevity of your concrete surfaces. Awareness and early detection of these common foundation signs are key to maintaining the integrity of your home's concrete structures.
