Absolutely love these guys! Very professional, friendly and knowledgeable. They made sure we understood our system and they saved us so much money. The job is perfect. We are under a flood watch right now and before they fixed the basement it would be full of multiple feet of water. Finding them has been such a blessing. Sofia Gick, Stacey Scott, and Daniel Johnson were absolutely amazing. I would refer them to anyone needing service. Perfect experience.

We bought a nice home in the town of Wytheville VA. It is an older Historical House. It has a dirt basement and crawl space. After a few months living here myself and my wife found ourselves coughing ever now and again. We wondered if it was coming from the basement. We never owned a home with dirt. So we called JES to come out and perform a test and oh my goodness we had hidden mold. They set down with us and explained how it could be eliminated. Gave us a price to wrap the whole basement and beams put a Humidifier in and sump pump in case we took on water. They were in and out in a day and a half and we have not coughed again. And I'm not ashamed of our dirt basement now because you can't see any dirt . We highly recommend these folks and I mean the field guys office personnel all Reps. And every now and again they either call us or come bye to see if everything is going good. Unbelievable Thanks Again JES

We had a service visit from Garrett Williams, and he was so helpful! Even though I've had a hard time getting in touch with the rest of the company (and frankly some frustrating experiences that I hope will be resolved soon so I can change this review!), Garrett has been very responsive and thorough in answering my many questions. He is definitely a great asset to the company. Thanks Garrett!!

I had some work done to resolve water collecting under an addition of our home late last year. Crew did a great job, were professional, and was happy with the end product. Recently had some rain and some concerns came up. Stopped by local shop and JR and his crew were unloading from another job. Talked with him about concerns and he followed me out to my house immediately. Checked everything to make sure it was working properly and did some additional work to resolve some other issues not covered under warranty/service plan. JR and his crew also hung around to discuss some other concerns not related to their work. Extremely helpful, professional, and would definitely recommend them.

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.

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.

Nathan came out to assess a potential problem. He was very professional and very thorough. He clearly explained his findings and did NOT try to sell us something that was NOT needed. Nathan was not high pressure and was not out to just make a sale. He demonstrated great integrity and character. Nathan, we truly appreciate your honesty.

Christian, Zachary and Paul were great to work with on the full encapsulation for my crawl space. They also installed an air system and duct kit in my crawl space and explained it thoroughly. They kept us updated on the job and were very friendly and great working through this process. I would highly recommend this company and will use the service again. Thank you!

Structural Repair Specialists in Roanoke

Roanoke and neighboring places like Blacksburg, Bristol, Radford, and Charleston, WV, are predominantly built on a top layer of silt, and mid layer of silty, gravely loam. Sinkholes and unstable foundations are common with gravely soil, and when it comes to your foundation, the damage can slowly take effect. Silt in soil tends to heavily absorb water and expand, while gravelly soil is prone to erosion and instability. As both soils interact with water, you can see the damaging effects through cracks, settling, and sloping in your foundation.

Blue Ridge and surrounding areas tend to experience muggy, wet summers with frequent rain on a weekly basis. This climate can leave your home vulnerable to mold and mildew in your basement or crawl space, which can lead to rotten floor joists, bad odors, and even higher energy bills. 

While these issues are common for Roanoke homeowners, JES recognizes that every home tells a different story. That’s why we provide permanent basement, foundation, crawl space, and concrete repair solutions uniquely tailored to your situation, so you and your home can have the happy ending it deserves.
