"JES left my home in worse shape and will not return my calls to come repair the damage left. I reached out to them to install a joist support system under my kitchen so that I can renovate this year. There were floor joists under the back door that had been cut during a renovation about 30 years ago. JES installed a jack system but then left my foundation under the door where you can literally see daylight from the basement. I brought this up to the crew before they left late Friday night (they worked long hours just to ?finish? without even asking me if it was okay to trap me at home that late), and the lead just shrugged at me. Shortly after they left, it rained, and sure enough, water poured into my electrical room and all over the freshly poured concrete. I called Friday night, sent an email and text with videos, and called today 3 times. Each time the ?production manager? is ?busy.? Before this, they were perfectly capable of blowing up my phone to see if I could schedule sooner."

"Review for G&G Landscaping (G&G Landscape, LLC) – Owners Derek & Amanda Gardner, MHIC# 155902 In 2024, I hired G&G Landscaping to complete a patio and fence project at my home, totaling $44,000 ($9,800 of which was for the fence). While I was initially satisfied with the patio installation, the quality of their work quickly came into question. Just 11 months after completion, the patio began to sink in several areas, creating large and noticeable gaps between the pavers. This is extremely disappointing, especially considering that the project came with a 5-year craftsmanship warranty, which was a major reason I chose G&G over other (less expensive) contractors. I reached out to Derek Gardner through the contact information provided. He responded at first, apologized for the issue, and assured me that someone would come to inspect the patio by the end of that week. That was over two weeks ago—and no one has come, nor have I received any further communication. I’ve followed up multiple times by phone and email with no response whatsoever. It’s unacceptable that a patio of this cost and supposed quality is already failing in less than a year, and even more troubling that the company is now unresponsive and failing to honor their written warranty. If I could go back, I would choose a different contractor. I strongly caution others against hiring G&G Landscaping—they do not stand behind their work."

On average, it takes two to seven days to physically raise your house. However, this does not include the preparation work, which is often the most lengthy process. The entire project, including preparation, obtaining permits, disconnecting utilities, and any subsequent landscaping, can take four to eight weeks. This timeline ensures everything is done safely and that your home remains structurally sound.
If proper safety protocols are not followed, raising a house can cause severe damage, as the process involves applying controlled force to the home's structure. The risks involved make it crucial to hire a skilled contractor who uses engineered methods to secure your home and prevent any harm to your household.
If your foundation shows signs of instability after raising your home, you might need to add structural support. A structural engineer can assess your foundation and recommend reinforcements to ensure your house stays stable and safe for the long term. Available support options include installing additional piers or pilings, reinforcing existing footings, or using steel beams to distribute the load more evenly.
You will need a structural engineer to assess your home before you begin. These professionals determine whether your house is suitable for lifting and identify any issues that could compromise its stability. Their expertise ensures that the project is designed correctly and all risks are managed to achieve a successful lift.
