Basement Problem Signs in Northern Virginia

Basement problems aren’t just inconvenient — they can put your home and family at risk. It’s important to recognize signs of trouble, and even harder to determine if there’s damage to the foundation. Keep an eye out for leaks, efflorescence, mold, musty smells, and other issues like condensation, humidity, wet drywall, and flooding in your Northern Virginia home. Don’t wait for a small problem to turn into a major hazard. Get the help you need, and contact our team for a free estimate today. We’re here to help ensure your home is safe and sound.

Causes of Basement Damage in Northern Virginia

If you’re experiencing basement problems in Northern Virginia, chances are the clay and silty soil around your home might be the main cause. When a home is built, the dirt that was removed is placed back around the foundation, creating a clay bowl effect that can lead to an artificial water table – causing cracks, leaks, and bowing walls. Faulty equipment like your sump pump, water heater, or plumbing could also be to blame. Let us help you diagnose and solve these issues for a safe and dry home.

Basement Waterproofing Solutions in Northern Virginia

Ensure your Northern Virginia basement, and consequently, your entire home, is safeguarded to the best of its ability by enlisting the expertise and equipment of a reliable basement waterproofing team. Following a thorough inspection by JES, viable solutions such as an interior drain, sump pump, dehumidifier, wall vapor barrier, or a combination of these options will be proposed. While each solution brings unique advantages, they collectively function as a comprehensive waterproofing system that guarantees your basement the ultimate protection it deserves.

This five star review is for Ethan Mooney, the JES repair person who recently helped us with our JES project. Over 6 months after having JES complete installing a liner, dehumidifier and pump under our family room addition, we still noticed water. The service repair person, Ethan Mooney, recently came and found that the pump was never plugged in! Ethan was professional and not only fixed that easy problem but installed new equipment and inspected the liner. He was wonderful.

JES has completed two separate jobs on my home. Recently, we had them encapsulate our crawl space due to excessive moisture and a budding mold problem. Rudy González expertly conducted an in depth inspection of the area and showed us all the existing and potential issues. He quickly arranged for a quick response team to do our job while the weather was dry. Osman, Alejandro and Roverto worked extremely hard to complete this project in one day. We now have an encapsulated crawl space that can now serve as additional storage. it is super dry and has a humidifier installed to maintain a dry environment. These guys work hard and our very easy to work with. Please note that "encapsulation" is a real "dirty job" but these guys are true professionals.

I was extremely pleased with the work that the men from JES foundation did. We had water seeping into our basement and they came and installed a french drain and also did some work with our gutters to extend them far out. Abdul W. found a root from a bush that was pushing against the wall and cut it off so it would not be an issue. He was very informative and educated me as the work was being done and pointed out problem areas they were going to fix along the way. The other men, Nilhon R. and Walter F. The men did a great job overall and cleaned up all of the mess afterward and I would highly recommend them.

I had a nagging issue with my home that had been causing me a lot of worry, so I contacted JES Foundation Repair. They promptly sent out a technician, Mr. Palmer, and I couldn’t be more impressed. Mr.Palmer was extremely professional and took the time to conduct a thorough review and analysis of the problem. His insights were well thought out and logical, giving me a clear understanding of both the situation and the best course of action. Throughout the process, he was patient and answered all my questions, ensuring I felt comfortable with the recommendations. His knowledge and expertise were evident, making me feel confident in the solutions he proposed. I would highly recommend JES Foundation Repair and specifically Mr. Palmer to anyone in need of foundation services.

Jaime Castillo (foreman), and Antonio Canales were absolutely AMAZING! They stayed in communication with us throughout the process, and made sure that everything was up to par. I highly recommend this crew! They are courteous, kind, and cleaned up well after they finished. This team came in after a previous team made a hot mess the week prior. The concern they showed was amazing. Give this team a raise!

We had our outside walkway lifted today as it had sunk to a dangerous angle. JES gave us a thorough inspect and estimate. They arrived early and did an excellent job being very respectful of the lawn and gardens. Bryan Rutherford and Austin Hicks were the technicians on the job. Very pleasant to deal with and explained everything. Thanks JES.

I met with Vincent Palmer to get my estimate. He explained all the details clearly. He responded to all the questions we asked. On the installation day the foreman Joel Lugo and his team members Jose Garcia Roberto Lemus and Jose Alejandro Vazquez showed up. They were very skilled and knew a lot about their work. They explained how the process works. They ensured that I was happy with the service we got. "

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.
