Verified record
No state license for this trade. New Hampshire doesn't license or register waterproofing / foundationbusinesses, so there's no state registry to check. That's true of every waterproofing / foundation business in the state, not a mark against this one. Insurance is self-reported.
Highlights
- Honest assessments — one reviewer was told repair wasn't needed, saving money
- Redone work, no warranty — a reviewer said damaged work was never honored under warranty
- Employee conduct — a reviewer described being catcalled by company staff
- Dismissive estimate — a reviewer described a brief visit ending in a costly teardown recommendation
J Heaney Construction is a family-owned Mont Vernon, New Hampshire contractor that says it specializes in restoring antique barns and homes, sill replacement, and foundation and structural repair, alongside exterior renovation work. The company describes itself as owner-operated by Jeb Heaney, in business 25 years, and lists itself as a New Hampshire Preservation Alliance preferred contractor. The public record is thin and largely negative. One 2024 reviewer said work the company performed had to be redone and that a warranty was never honored. Another described company employees catcalling them from a vehicle — behavior unrelated to any actual job but troubling on its own. A 2025 reviewer said a five-minute estimate visit for a restoration project ended with a recommendation to tear the structure down instead, at an estimated cost of $30,000 or more. Against that, one reviewer in early 2024 described a more reassuring interaction: the company looked at a sill plate issue and told them honestly that no repair was needed, saving them money rather than selling unnecessary work. Given the mix — and the seriousness of the redo-and-no-warranty complaint in particular — get a second opinion on scope and cost before committing to a restoration job here, and ask directly about warranty terms up front.
