Concrete Lifting, Leveling, & Repair in Charlottesville, VA
As a homeowner in Charlottesville, VA, it’s crucial to maintain the concrete around your house and foundation. Concrete is a durable substance, but it is nevertheless susceptible to damage. Structures like concrete driveways, sidewalks, and steps can crack, sink, and become uneven over time. This is largely due to Charlottesville’s problematic soil and weather.
Without having to completely replace the concrete on your property, concrete lifting with polyurethane injections is the best way to restore damaged concrete. You can trust our team at JES Foundation Repair to evaluate the concrete around your home because our specialists are fully aware of what to look for. We are also well-versed in Charlottesville’s hot, muggy, and rainy weather as well as the silty loam and silty clay soil and how these factors impact concrete.
The JES Process
Common Concrete Problems in Charlottesville
If there’s one thing that can be said about concrete damage, it’s that problem signs are usually pretty easy to spot with the naked eye. Issues you might notice with your property’s concrete include cracks, sinking and uneven slabs, driveway cracks, sidewalk cracking and unevenness, uneven concrete steps, and pitting, flaking, or staining. Not only do these problems make your property look bad, but they can be dangerous for anyone walking or driving over damaged concrete.
What Causes Concrete Damage in Charlottesville?
Concrete can sustain damage for a variety of reasons, but the most common reasons why concrete sinks have to do with concrete structures being exposed to the elements. The silty loam and silty clay soil common in the area can dry out in hot weather and swell when oversaturated. Charlottesville usually gets around 45 inches of rain every year, which is well above the national average. This can lead to soil washout and erosion that leaves concrete without proper support.
Polyurethane Foam Leveling Experts in Charlottesville
Instead of outdated, invasive techniques like mud jacking, JES offers a state-of-the-art concrete lifting solution. PolyRenewal™ polyurethane injections are lightweight, durable, easy to install, quick curing, and versatile. We can use this solution to lift concrete sidewalks, driveways, patios, pool decks, steps, interior slab floors, and more. Once the polyurethane foam is injected under the concrete, it expands to fill any voids, and this allows for the precise lifting and stabilization of the slabs.

I've now had JES complete two projects in my exposed crawlspace. Both times, they have added adjustable jacks on top of footers and either replaced a main beam or added a supplemental metal I Beam. I've been extremely impressed with their quality of work, timeliness, and efficiency. They show up ready to work and are sure to ask questions if needed. I spent time with both crews down in the crawl space and appreciated their professionalism and willingness to make things right.Foreman: Jaime CastilloAntonio CanalesJose Rafael GarciaThe only thing I was not pleased with was how little the office side of things kept in touch with me prior to pinning down this second date. I was told on multiple occasions I'd be receiving an update from the office and each time I had to call them. Again, overall I am very happy, hats off to the site workers and everyone I spoke to the in the office was very pleasant, I just wish they had provided more updates without being prompted. Would do business with again in the future.

JES Foundation Repair had the lowest pricing and the fastest response time–and I consulted with several other waterproofing companies that said there's no way any company would do the job at that price! I hired JES Foundation to waterproof the exterior of my home and install a crawlspace dehumidifier. The crew of Henry A. Portillo, Jose Rubio, and Jose R. Garcia did a great job of digging down to my footers, putting membrane and drain tile, and then backfilling the exterior. We had some miscommunication about the scope of the work, but Rudy made sure to send another crew and get the work done exactly as I expected it. And then Rudy sent both a mason and a handyman to fix any damage that was done by the Bobcat. I'd highly recommend JES Foundation Repair.

JES repaired 7 slabs of concrete around my swimming pool. The entire operation was professional and timely from estimating and project management to scheduling and work performance. I received a written estimate for the work with a comprehensive scope followed by a contractual agreement including payment terms. Once I accepted the job, the company scheduled the work and maintained communication with me regarding the work. The day of the repair their crew showed up to the site led by Seth. They were courteous and knowledgeable about this work. They got busy immediately with great results. The slabs were jacked into their proper positions and then structural foam was injected through the slabs to support them in their correct locations. Seth and his crew completed the job and cleaned up the work area as if they were never there. The slabs look perfect and we couldn't be happier. Thank you JES!!

We had some differential settlement on our house’s foundation in the rear half. Our fix was 16 piers to stabilize. We also installed a water management system to get all of our down spout water away from the house. Jaime, Jose, Cesar did a great job and Jeanne B. Did a great job on the initial assessment. There was a bit of confusion on the job scheduling but that was overcome.

The entire JES team needs to be commended — Rafael Garcia, Jose Lovato, and Wilton Mendoza — the very fine crew — arrived on time and ready to do the work; they worked efficiently, effectively, and knowledgeably as a well-oiled team and "machine." They informed us of each step along the way and explained everything thoroughly and completely. They used pictures from their phones to help explain the process and what they were doing. After they finished their work, they cleaned up the work area, gave us all the written information we needed, explained everything — they were so informative, helpful, knowledgeable, kind, WARM and FRIENDLY! It's so nice to work with friendly, happy, smiling people! What an amazing staff — Ally at the office — thank you for answering our questions, being so efficient, providing assistance, and being so warm and friendly, too. The JES crew gave us the invaluable peace of mind that our basement will stay dry. No more worries about rain or mold or mildew or critters getting in! We give you 100 stars! All As, 100%! Thank you so very much!

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!
