Foundation Repair in Charlottesville, VA

If your home’s foundation needs repair, you can count on the experts at JES Foundation Repair to get the job done right the first time. To ensure that your home is structurally sound even if it is built on unstable soils in a rainy environment, our company provides unique solutions that are built to last. When it comes to foundation repair in Charlottesville, there are a number of factors at play, including the climate and the type of soil. Most of the soil in the Charlottesville area has a top layer of silty loam with a silty clay subsoil, leaving the top layer vulnerable to soil erosion and the bottom layer vulnerable to expansion.

Foundation Problem Signs in Charlottesville

Your home’s foundation is especially vulnerable to deterioration because of the humid climate and frequent rainfall found in Charlottesville and surrounding areas. When your home’s foundation is damaged, you should be aware of a wide range of problems that can occur. Cracks in your basement, along your chimney, and on your house’s outside brickwork are all symptoms that your foundation is settling.

Causes of Foundation Damage in Charlottesville

Damage to a foundation can be caused by many different things. For instance, soil erosion produced by a weak upper layer of dirt also damages your foundation as it sinks and settles into unstable soil. Depending on how much rain falls, the silty loam or silty clay soil below may also expand and contract, causing even more instability around your foundation. Because there are different types of soil in the area, being knowledgeable about both is very helpful.

Foundation Repair Solutions in Charlottesville

We have a variety of options for lifting, repairing, or stabilizing your foundation so that it can last for many years to come. Our solutions include helical and push piers, which are meant to stabilize your foundation by holding it in place and can potentially lift it back towards its original position. As a result of the area’s frequent summer rainfall and humidity, foundation waterproofing is strongly advised in Charlottesville. 

Why Choose JES Foundation Repair

In order to ensure the stability of your home, you should focus on repairing its foundation. There are no costs or obligations associated with having JES evaluate your foundation. You can rely on our nearly three decades of experience when it comes to Charlottesville’s silty loam and clay subsoil, as well as high levels of humidity.

Our home had some foundation issues and JES provided a very thorough assessment and fair quote for the work. They took care of all of the prework requirements (permits, soil samples, etc.) and showed up on schedule to execute the placement of half a dozen push piers along one side of our home. The crew (Mr. E. Aguilara, Mr. A. Fernandez, and Mr. J. Diaz) provided outstanding customer service, took great care to avoid our irrigation lines during the excavation process, and kept our family informed every step of the way. Upon completion of the work, they left the site in great condition and we couldn't be happier with the outcome. I highly recommend this team!

I contacted JES Foundation Repair to fix my sinking driveway and I was completely impressed by the professionalism and dedication demonstrated by everyone I met. Bryan Rutherford and Morgan Oakley arrived at my home right on time. They were friendly, knowledgeable and efficient. They started working right away, also took the time to thoroughly explain to me the entire process and gave me an accurate estimated time of completion. When the job was about 90% finished, unfortunately a piece of equipment broke down. They finished the remaining tasks as much as they could, cleaned the worksite and promised to come back a week later to complete the job, as soon as the faulty equipment was fixed. To my surprise, Bryan called me the next morning and told me that he’d be back on that day, as he was concerned about the unsealed area of the driveway and wanted to take care of it right away. He managed to find a workaround, drove to my house (out of his way) and completed the remaining job. They did such a fantastic job my driveway almost looks like a new one again! Thank you, Bryan, Morgan, Jesse for your help. I would not hesitate to recommend JES Foundation Repair to anyone in need of reliable and trustworthy concrete repair.

Chris and Ben did a very thorough job of inspecting and servicing my sump pumps and crawlspace dehumidifier. They also took the time to re-tape an area of my encapsulation which had been taken up by a plumber. They conducted a thorough inspection of moisture levels in my crawlspace and advised on my concerns about potential clogged drain tiles in my garage and what to monitor. They were very knowledgeable and professional. Highly recommend.

Mr. Rudy Gonzale, Superintendant at the JES in Bristow, VA, came to our rescue when my husband and I called about a foundation water problem. Rudy showed up in a very timely manner. He was very polite, professional, and very knowledgeable. He explained things in a way in which we could understand what was going on with the issue we were experiencing. Rudy listened to and understood our concerns and in a very professional manner he demonstrated empathy and assurance that everything will be alright. Even though my husband and I had never met Rudy before we felt he treated us like he would a family member. Rudy was a blessing to us. He was true to his word that "Everything would be alright". I highly recommend Rudy and his team who assisted us in resolving our problem. We could go on and on about Rudy with the highest accolades because the words Thank You to Rudy doesn't seem adequate.

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.
