After deciding to stop using the plumbing company that I had been using for many years, due too many recent bad experiences, I found A1 Sewer and Drain on the Thumbtack app. After sending them a message on Thumbtack, I received a call from A-1 within about 10 minutes. They scheduled a next day appointment for me. The next morning I got a text message from A-1 that the tech was on his way and it even included a photo of the tech, Matthew. Matthew was professional and polite. He got the small job done quickly. I appreciate the entire experience and customer service that I received from A-1 and will continue to use them in the future.

Our inspector, Joey was very thorough in his review of our foundation. He took the time to explain in detail the options that would work for our situation and helped us put together a plan that would address our needs and our budget. Highly recommended.

We had the pleasure of working with Jeanne from JES Foundation Repair, and I couldn’t be more impressed. As an inspector and sales associate, Jeanne’s extensive knowledge was evident from the start. She thoroughly explained everything in a way that was easy to understand, making me feel confident and comfortable throughout the entire process. Her communication skills are exceptional, and she answered all of my questions with patience and clarity. It’s rare to meet someone with such a strong combination of expertise and people skills. I highly recommend Jeanne to anyone in need of foundation services—she truly goes above and beyond!

I posted a complaint about 4 months ago regarding an issue I was having with the system installed by JES a few years ago. I want to provide an update. The JES team of Rick, Matt, Dalton, Davonte, and especially JR, we're excellent in resolving the issue. They effectively evaluated the situation, took ownership of the problem, and quickly established a plan to remedy the situation. They were efficient in executing their plan and I am beyond satified with the end results. Everyone exemplified professionalism, were courteous, and respectful. JR's follow up was on point and I am so glad that he was spearheading the effort. Thank you JES. You definitely exceeded my expectations.

Troy, was an excellent first step into our journey with your company. He did an excellent job of assessing our needs and wants and was quick to provide paperwork and a contract. Luis, Eduardo and Jose C were the on-site crew and were nothing short of amazing. When unknow issues were found they were quick to talk to those in your office and provide multiple solution choices. Luis and his crew were prompt in their arrivals, wonderfully polite, task driven, detail oriented, always had time for our questions and concerns, very hard workers, efficient in their use of time and left the job site as tidy as possible each day. JES should be thrilled to have such a topnotch crew that represents the company so extraordinarily well. They are absolute gems in this modern day world of home repair High praise for your subcontractors as well. The pest control and brickmasons were top shelf and easy to work with. JES, you have a great thing going with all of these men, they all take pride in the quality of their work and represent you well. Leslie Davis

I rarely write reviews but I just had to rave about Ajeet Ryatt of JES Foundation. I'm experiencing interior cracking and was afraid there was a foundation issue. From the moment he arrived Ajeet was the model of professionalism. He explained the evaluation process and answered all of my questions. Thankfully, my issue was not related to the foundation. Of course I would never wish foundation issues on anyone but in the event you need foundation repair, I highly recommend JES and Ajeet.
