At Jet Foundation Repair, we believe it shouldn’t be that hard to find someone to fix your house and restore your sense of security. Your home is your most significant asset, and dealing with structural issues is stressful enough without having to worry about the reliability of your contractor.

Founded in 2024 by brothers Calder and Emmett Miranker, Jet was born from a simple thesis: St. Louis homeowners are tired of lousy contractors, and a local, responsive organization that prioritizes its employees, customers, and project quality - should kill it.

We decided to build something different. By combining high-level mechanical engineering with a 100% employee-owned business model, we’re able to ensure your project is done correctly, by people who genuinely care about doing it right.

Our core values

Safety F****** First!

Do right by the customer

Honesty & Open Communication

Don’t let your teammates down

Continuous Improvement

What sets us apart?

We Are Stakeholders, Not Just Staff Our crew members aren't just hourly workers - they are owners. This creates a culture of extreme accountability. Our customers feel the difference immediately in the cleanliness of our job sites, the transparency of our communication, and the precision of our work.
We Love the "Head-Scratchers" While many franchises steer away from complex structural issues, our engineering background means we enjoy the tricky projects.
Solutions, Not Surprises In the construction world, surprises are rarely good. We pride ourselves on clear, constant communication. Our goal is to provide an experience that allows you to relax, knowing your home is in the hands of verified experts.

The name Jet

Is a tribute to our late dog, a companion who represented the loyalty and protection we aim to provide for every home we service.

We believe businesses should strengthen the communities they serve. To honor Jet’s legacy, we’ve partnered with APA Missouri, donating a portion of our profits to local animal shelters.

Our mission

Is to restore peace of mind to our customers by delivering the essential services of foundation repair, basement waterproofing, and concrete stabilization in a more efficient, customer-centric, and socially responsible way.
