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. 

The JES Process

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.

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.

I recently understood what the cracks in the walls meant. *sigh* I did some research and contacted JES Foundation. I got an immediate response and inspection date. The team sent Michael Kim to assess my issue. Now, finding out that your house is shifting is not good news. Why? Cost? Fear? Is my house going to sink? However, Mike (Michael Kim of the Manassas office in VA) (hope he doesn't mind if I call him Mike) was very good at keeping me calm. He was very knowledgeable, kind and patient. I appreciate his dedication to his clients and his attention to detail and overall professionalism. I appreciate everything that has happened up to this date. I suspect I will be happy with the overall service. Greatly appreciated.

Booked an estimate for some work in a crawl space at a home in WV. Rick Smith showed up but was unable to provide an estimate due to clearance within the crawl space. He was able to answer a few questions and provide some guidance on how to move forward. It was unfortunate that we were unable to obtain service from this company.

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!
