Our top priority is providing high-quality home repair solutions and personalized service across Virginia and Maryland. With fully trained technicians, industry-leading products, and nationally backed warranties, JES is here to restore your foundation or crawlspace.
"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."

"We were absolutely thrilled with the driveway and walkway installation by R&R Construction And, Restoration Services, Llc. From start to finish, the experience was seamless and exceeded all expectations. The team leader Richard demonstrated incredible professionalism, punctuality, and attention to detail. First off, the initial consultation was thorough and informative. Richard took the time to understand exactly what we wanted and offered expert recommendations that enhanced the final design. The project timeline was adhered to perfectly, and the crew worked diligently, maintaining a clean and organized worksite throughout. The quality of the workmanship is truly outstanding. The new driveway looks fantastic—smooth, sturdy, and beautifully finished. It's clear that R&R Construction And, Restoration Services, Llc, uses top-notch materials and craftsmanship. The transformation has not only improved the curb appeal of our home but also added significant value. What really stood out was the commitment to customer satisfaction.

Mudjacking and foam jacking differ significantly in both materials and methods. Mudjacking uses a cement-based slurry to fill voids beneath a slab, while foam jacking uses expanding polyurethane foam delivered under high pressure to achieve superior structural support. This material distinction enhances load-bearing strength and overall stability in your repair.
Mudjacking takes between one and three days to dry completely. During this time, it's important to avoid putting weight on the slab until it's fully cured. The drying time depends on the project size and environmental conditions. In contrast, polyurethane foam used in foam jacking can cure in as little as one hour.
No, mudjacking is not a permanent fix for sinking concrete. While it effectively lifts the slab and can last five to 10 years, it doesn't address underlying soil issues that may cause future sinking. For a more permanent solution, you might consider foam jacking or complete slab replacement, which can address deeper structural problems.
