JES did wonderful work for our home. The team we had for the outside work was Agustin Morales, Eduardo Morales, and Jorge Duron. They were very professional in every aspect of the job. I was impressed how they took the time to lay plastic down in our flower beds to keep from disturbing the mulch. This seems small but means so much, especially since we just put it down recently. They let us know when they were arriving via text which was great. Agustin explained everything that was being done and did a walk around with us after the work was complete. He even took the excess dirt and filled some low lying areas in our back yard. We truly appreciate the professionalism and care you took of our home.

I recieved Basement waterproof services 1/28-1/29/26. I dont know when but the sunk pump became disconnected and materials used started to come off the wall. Corey Griffin and Bryen Hailey visited my property 4/14/26 and thoroughly addressed every issue I was experiencing. Their customer service was exceptional, and they were both professional and pleasant throughout the visit. I genuinely appreciated their company while they serviced my home. All concerns I raised were resolved, and I am very satisfied with the results. Corey was so kind to my outsid

Desmond, James, and Eric came out to install a window well drain and vapor barrier. They were polite, professional, friendly and got the job done quickly. They were also just over all great guys to have working on my house. If I ever need any other foundation work I'll be requesting them. If anyone I know needs work I'll be sure to recommend JES and make sure to they request Desmond K, James M, and Eric T.

JES is helping me sleep better at night knowing that my family can sleep in a healthier home. The process was quick and painless. I would recommend JES to friends and family. If you can request your JES assessor ask for "Joey". He explained everything in detail and patiently.

I contracted with JES to have my Foundation repaired a Sump Pump and a full basement Dehumidifier installed. The onsite foreman Mr. Jaime Castillo was timely with keeping to the set work schedule JES provided. The work crew, Mr. Noel Larios, Mr. Erik Morales and Mr. Antonio Canales show strong work ethic in preforming their duties. Mr. Castillo explained each step of the job in layman’s terms as they worked. I myself have the habit of asking the same questions repeatedly and the foreman Mr. Castillo would take his time and re-explain the task as they worked. Mr. Canales was also knowledgeable with helping me understand the Sump Pump drainage process.The clean up was excellent paying attention to every detail.

Scott Ashmore came out and gave us an estimate today for fixing our cement patio. What a nice guy. He explained everything about the job from start to finish. He's very knowledgable and answered all our questions. He left us with a feeling that they will really do a great job but we'll find out. I'll have to leave an update when the job is finished. But I'm confident it will a good one!
