Rafael Garcia and his crew Jose Louato and Wilton Mendoza were very professional. They explained everything and communicated with engineer when they discovered a problem. They fixed the problem quickly and finished up the same day. I'm very pleased with the results and would recommend Rafael's team.

My new 'water control system' (drains, sump) were installed yesterday as Hurricane Helene visited the Blue Ridge Mountains. My crew (Jason Butler, Raijohn Metcalf, Stacey Scott, and Joel Woodley) met the storm head on! What a fantastic job. They were there on time (this is a big deal for me), knew the job, had everything needed to do it, and got it done! They were courteous, careful, and tremendously hardworking – even as the water seeped in through the foundation. Amazing. I would totally recommend this crew and JES Foundation repairs. This hopefully solved a 30 year problem and the new system will give me back a big section of my basement – soon to be a Man Cave. If it handled a hurricane, it will handle anything.

I was having moisture issues in my basement. I scheduled appointment. Jes showed up on time and carefully inspected the damage. I had stage 2 wall failure. I scheduled appointment to get it repaired. They called and moved appointment up. Then 1 day before canceled it. The work was done when originally scheduled, so I have no problem with that. When Reed Norvell showed up, he and his crew did a great job. It was evident from the beginning that he had been well trained. Reed took charge and instructed his crew with ease and precision. He did his best to protect my stuff from being covered with concrete dust. He was very kind,. He knew I was sick and offerd to pick us up lunch. When the job was done, they cleaned up. I appreciate the effort because I realize foundation repair is a noisy, messy job. I am not normally comfortable with workers in my house. Reed made me feel at ease . I even fell asleep amidst all the noise. It has only been a few days since job completion, but I'm confident that I will have no more moisture issues. It is a lot of work and frustration on my part, but the end product is worth it.

John Stone did the initial assessment and explained our options including financing. Alfonso Cobos and Mihail Gadjelor installed basement gutters and supports to stabilize our front porch. They were responsive and kept us informed of schedule adjustments. All JES employees were clearly experienced and answered any questions we had.

Thank you JES for a job well done. The crew, led by Foreman Charles Byers, were very professional, conscientious, courteous, hard working young men. Charles explained everything they needed to accomplish as they went along. This was not an easy job, running into several unexpected problems due to inadequate, unstable, unusual footing work done by the builder of 20 years ago. Our pier issues were solved due to the diligent hands on hard work performed by this crew, along with the JES engineers and supervisors that were consulted. They were calm and considered this job just another problem to be solved. This two day job became a labor intensive five day job. We are so very pleased with the final outcome, knowing our house is now safe due to this wonderful crew. Thank you Charles Byers, Chris Weddel, Garrett Williams and Reed Norvel.

Couldn’t be happier with the project quality and communication from the workers on sight. The crawl space encapsulation looked very meticulously combed over and done with care and skill, the drain lines dug outside were also done with superb quality but the highlight of the project was without a doubt the workers. Reed Norvell, Charles Simmons, and Darin Harris were incredible workers that were extremely polite and transparent about the state of the job as they relayed regular updates. They were all hospitable, and great at making sure we actively understood what was going on every step of the way not to mention how pleasent and enjoyable they were to talk to. Even with a project this vital and expensive it’s really the quality of the people and how much you can tell they’re putting in that make it a great job and these three workers were truly great, really couldn’t ask for more.

It was a difficult and anxiety provoking situation finding out that my basement needed structural repair and a sump pump system. But I owe a huge thank you to the JES crew that worked on my project. Nick Garst, David Lombard, Greg Elmore and Matt Ireland were highly professional, took time to answer my questions and worked efficiently. They told me each day what they planned to accomplish and left the job site clean and tidy. I would recommend this team to anyone that needs repair to their home. Thanks, JES

Home Repair Specialists in Danville

Frequent summer rain and high humidity in Danville, Martinsville, South Boston, and surrounding areas does more than just ruin day plans. Improper drainage and the wet climate can work together to affect not only integrity of your basement or crawl space, but your overall health. Mold, mildew, rotten smells, poor air quality, and higher energy bills are a few symptoms of bad water and moisture management in your home—and it can feel unfixable. 

The way climate interacts with your region’s soil can also have a major effect on a home’s foundation. Many structures in Danville, Martinsville, South Boston, and surrounding areas are built on a sub layer of clay and loam. While soil type may seem insignificant, it can negatively impact your home’s foundation. The mixture of clay and loam can be cause for concerns when paired with high precipitation. As clay absorbs water, it swells, cracking, shifting, and compromising your home’s stability. During dry spells, clay contracts—settling your home and exacerbating existing issues. 

Don’t feel defeated. JES can work with you to accurately diagnose your home’s issues. Our experts have years of experience in facing these problems head-on, and have the wet basement, crawl space, and foundation repair solutions that your home needs to stand strong.
