Omar was the JES representative who did our basement evaluation. He arrived exactly at the appointment time which I appreciated. He was thorough in his assessment of what was needed to resolve our humidity issues and gave us several options to remedy the problem. He is very professional and knowledgeable and explained the benefits of each option. I recommend speaking with Omar if you have a choice.

Joe A. and his team crushed our crawlspace encapsulation. They came out the start day and walked the job site with me and put my mind at ease. Joe worked late the first day to make sure the job got done but had to return to install a pump to the dehumidifier. They did it this morning which took them no time. I would recommend JES and Joe’s team to anyone in need of waterproofing or encapsulation.

Chad Bishop was incredibly helpful. He did a very thorough inspection and helped us figure out exactly what we needed without selling us on things we didn’t need. He was friendly, helpful, calm and chatty. He answered all of our many questions. I highly recommend him.
