JES Foundation Repair

Your trusted, local foundation repair, crawl space repair and basement waterproofing contractor, serving VA, DC, MD and N.E. NC. With Professional Engineers on staff, free inspections and estimates, and over 50,000 residential and commercial properties repaired since 1993, JES is "Known Best For Being Better" for a reason.

There's a good reason why we're known best for being better. And it starts with integrity: we don't believe in hard sales and pushy salesmen. We're here to help you find the best solution, not force you to purchase a product that you don't need. We want to help you, even if we don't need to do the work!

A company is only as good as the people it hires. And we hire only the best. Every inspector has experience in construction, engineering or some other area of the housing industry. We don't hire sales people, we hire experts who know how to find the source of the problem and provide you with the best solution.

We have Professional Engineers on staff: Your home is your largest investment. And you wouldn't trust your foundation, crawl space or basement repairs to just anyone. We understand, and agree! This is why we have Professional Engineers on staff to evaluate problems and recommend the best solution for your home.

Your call is answered by a person: Your call is important! When you want help, you want it now. And you want to talk to a person not an answering machine. Our office is staffed to answer your call and help you when you need it.

Your free inspection appointment is confirmed: Your time is important and we don't want to waste it. We confirm your appointment time with you via email and a phone call. If there's a scheduling conflict, we'll work with you to find the best time to come out and help.

You're introduced to your inspector: It can be nerve wracking to invite a contractor into your home. You want to know about their training, experience and what they look like so that you can feel more comfortable. Before your free inspection, you'll receive information on your inspector, with a photo, and some of the solutions we offer.

Precision is key: When your foundation, basement or crawl space is inspected we use precision tools to find the source of the problem and provide accurate information. After all, you don't want someone to just look at the problem and offer a solution without taking measurements and performing tests.

The inspection is comprehensive: The inspection involves more than just looking at the problem sign. It's a comprehensive evaluation of your home by a professionally trained foundation repair and waterproofing expert. The inspector will look at your foundation, from inside your home and outside, inspect your home's living area for other problem signs, and look around your property to determine if the source of your problem is drainage or large trees.

We explain the problem: If your foundation, basement or crawl space needs to be repaired, we'll explain why there's a problem and provide you with all of the information you need to make the best decision for home. We use a state-of-the-art computer program that creates a model of your home: it shows the problem and the solutions available for that problem. So you can see the solution before making your decision.

You're in control: After the inspection, the inspector will work with you to determine the best solution for your home. We're here to help and don't want to pressure you into purchasing a solution that you're not comfortable with. You're in complete control over the final estimate. And we're happy to work with you to make sure you're comfortable with the entire process. We can complete part of the job now, and then complete the rest of the job later, when the time is right for you.

You get the quote and proposal at the inspection: At the end of the inspection you'll have the estimate and proposal in hand – if your home needs repairs. It's important that you have the estimate in hand so that you can make an educated decision. You don't want to waste your time tracking down a contractor so you can get an estimate and proposal. We respect your time and don't want to waste it, so if your home needs repairs, we'll always provide you with the information you need.
