Our pathway to the house had partially sunk over the years. We also had some sinking in our driveway. We hired JES to raise the concrete slabs so as to remove what was a pretty serious tripping hazard. Austin Hicks and Seth Hensan were on time, polite, personable, knowledgeable and extremely efficient. They explained everything they were going to do. They were done in less than 90 minutes. Everything looks great. Will definitely use them again! It's safe to walk up to the front door again!

I had an inspection today as I was curious about my new house and the way it was Settling and the fact that it was built on a swamp. Jeff from JES foundation repair came in and do the thorough inspection. He gave me good advice and suggestions. Explained everything wonderfully. If I could’ve hugged him, I would have. Great personality, honest.

I just received a visit from Inspector Andre Williams. I was happy to receive a text message to confirm the arrival time. I also received an arrival text. This heads up allowed me the opportunity to move my feisty dog to another room. Andre's visit was due to a request I put in for a warning signal that has been repeating for the last week. Andre explained the reason for the signal, and immediately resolved the problem. That definitely put me at ease. Thank you so much Andre. The signal was driving me crazy, but now I feel sanity returning. Wonderful!

Blake Snidow came over to inspect our crawlspace and boy he did an outstanding job. First- he was on-time, courteous, caring of our property, and friendly. Second- Blake was a true professional, explained what he was going to do, asked along the way, if we had questions. He spent a good amount of time with us going through the process..we are were so impressed, he made the sale. In my opinion, he deserves an award and I'm a hard person to impress! Thank you Blake for being a great representative for JES.

We needed a replacement barrier for our crawlspace entrance. While other companies deemed our job too small for them, JES provided a timely and professional service for our home. They also followed up on their work by checking back with us a few days later to ensure we were satisfied. I'd especially like to thank Chaun and his crew for their exceptional work. A clear master of his trade, Chaun ensured our concerns were met beyond expectations. His professionalism was matched by his crew's quality workmanship, and it was clear that he excelled in the role of both leader and mentor by coaching his teammates throughout the project. We would absolutely go with JES for any additional work on our property; 10/10 would recommend.

JES / Greg Shock is the real deal. On time to Avon North Carolina, dialed in, and incredibly knowledgeable. He took the time to explain everything clearly and made sure we were comfortable with the entire process. The results? Outstanding. Our boat ramp looks phenomenal after the concrete lift—solid, clean, and like new again. True craftsmanship, attention to detail, and zero shortcuts. Couldn’t be happier with the outcome.

JES was super professional, clean and accommodating. They clearly understand customer needs and put the customer first.
