Jeff at 1-800 Water Damage was very responsive and professional. I had rain water leaking into my living room and coming down the wall. The outside repairs are my association's responsibility. I have complained 2 times about this and they came out, said they had fixed the problem, but the same leak would start back the following year. Plus I felt there was some black mold starting to form due to this leak. Jeff was incredibly informative, did an air quality test and mold test, and sent me a detailed report. I was relieved to see that the mold was not something super dangerous, and the report helped me make a case to my association to repair the outside and do it properly. I am still waiting for this work to be completed before I get 1-800 Water Damage to come in and fix the inside wall where the leak is occurring. I highly recommend Jeff and his company for any water damage issues. Instead of just saying he can tear down the wall and fix it, he took the time to assess the damage and make thoughtful recommendations that earned my trust.

Jeff was extremely responsive and very professional. His assessment no mold after a visual inspection and smell test was confirmed by other professionals that came in after him. He was very thorough, didn't charge anything, and offered optional services (that I may take him up on later) if I wanted to make absolutely sure there wasn't any mold. Great to work with!

We thought we had a mold problem so we wanted to get the air tested correctly. Jeff responded quickly on Thumbtack, was available when I called and was able to work the testing in the same week. He provided explanations throughout his process and provided a written report when it was completed. I would definitely use this company in the future if the need arises.

FAQs

  • What is your typical process for working with a new customer?

    It is important for our new customers to know that we never charge a fee to come out and do an initial evaluation of their problem. On a mold remediation quote we will always provide you with a detailed estimate that explains exactly what we will be doing to remediate the mold from the affected areas. We don't have any vague or general estimates that leave a potential customer wondering what exactly is included in the quote. Everything is spelled out from the onset. On a property restoration evaluation (water damage, sewage backup, and fire and smoke damage) we will provide you with a ballpark figure of what a typical emergency mitigation cost might be. That way you can decide if your issue is worth filing an insurance claim over. Please note that this is an inspection that is based on what we can see and can be subject to change if we run into a situation that might be more complicated to deal with. If that is the case we will always communicate that issue with the property owner and discuss their options with them at that particular time.

  • What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?

    We are fully accredited by the IICRC and follow their professional standards.

  • What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?

    I would urge all customers looking at property restoration or mold remediation services to do their homework. Our focus is to do the job right. Will we be the least expensive company on the block providing these services? The answer to that probably is no. However you can be assured that the job will be done correctly and according to all of the professional standards that are currently in place.
