Alexis, Osman, and Alejandro were courteous and professional during the five days I observed them onsite. Our house needed a wall support system installed and a clogged french drain replaced and we are completely satisfied with their work, however, the true test will be when the Spring and Summer rains hit. The original french drain used to run like a river during the wet season but then last year it stopped draining water. Then the water started coming through the wall. We're looking forward to the french drain sump working again this year and no "crying" walls. I'd add some photos of the beautiful work they did but Google has restrictions for upload source – shame on them. Just one of MANY reasons I'm not a google fan.

Alan and Aldo did an outstanding job with my crawlspace encapsulation installation. From start to finish, they were friendly, polite, professional, and extremely hardworking. Their attention to detail and quality of work truly exceeded expectations. The job site was kept clean throughout the entire process, and all debris was completely removed before they left. It’s clear they take pride in their work and care about customer satisfaction. Very pleased with the entire experience and would highly recommend Alan and Aldo to anyone needing crawlspace work completed. Five-star service all around!

I had a great experience with Michael Reeves during his inspection visit. His attention to detail, professionalism, and dedication to the project really stood out from start to finish. He took the time to thoroughly explain everything, presented multiple options, and walked me through all the possibilities so I could make informed decisions with confidence. What I appreciated most was how patient and knowledgeable he was throughout the entire process. Michael didn’t just focus on the immediate project — he also provided valuable recommendations and ideas for future improvements and projects, which showed he genuinely cares about delivering long-term value to his clients. I highly recommend Michael Reeves to anyone looking for someone who is skilled, detail-oriented, communicative, and truly invested in achieving the best possible outcome for your foundation needs with JES Foundation.

PERFECTION all around. Zach Cannon Is absolutely ? great. Best inspection I've had. He's courteous, respectful and when it comes to his job, he's very thorough. He inspects the interior of the home as well and explained why he was asking permission to do so. In the crawlspace he actually checked the jacks and made sure the dehumidifier was clean. It's hard to have a great customer experience these days or receive good customer service. You can tell Zach has pride and takes pride in his work. I'll be requesting him for next year's annual inspection.

Mike, Marquis, and William installed a new sump pump after an issue arose with the prior. They were super quick and efficient, and went out of their way to clean up after they were done. They were extremely professional and did great work. They are an excellent reflection on the company. I would not hesitate to recommend JES to our neighbors based on their work and professionalism.

JES Foundation Crew of Brian Swain (Foreman), Gio and David arrived on site and were all very friendly, professional and knowledgeable of the job. Brian performed a walk through of the project before and after the word explaining what would be accomplished and the final walk through to show the excellent workmanship. I truly appreciate their work and the benefit the installation will bring. Please send this crew again if and when I need more foundational work. I also want to thank Brian Ventura for his excellent and professional annual inspection of my house and recommendation to have this work completed. JES, keep serving the residents happy in maintaining safe home with solid foundations.

We had a great experience with JES! They came out and encapsulated our crawl space we have had ground water issues for a long time. Our crawl space was covered in water, mud, and mold. We have even had other companies come to give us a quote that refused to go down there. The work crew was amazing we had Cory m, Shaine C. And Chris jr out they were hard working on time and kind and very communicative. We even had questions after the job was complete they always responded. I was on the fence about hiring this contractor because of the mix reviews but I am happy we did I am no longer freaking out because I smell mold in my home. However this was a very expensive fix JES is not cheap but they got the work done

We contacted JES to come out to give us an estimate for spray insulation in the crawl space to help with the cold floors in our home. Blake Snidow came out to meet with us. He went in the crawl space and did an inspection. He found we had several issues under there that he suggested we take care of first. Blake came back after reviewing and gave us several options to correct our issues. He did a great job explaining everything. Unfortunately at this time being on a fixed income we are not going to fix the issues. When we can do it we will definitely call JES.

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.
