  I am a mother of three young children. My husband and I recently bought a “new” (200-year-old) farmhouse that we fell completely in love with. We had a home inspection performed which told us that asbestos was likely found, but we needed further clarification. The home inspection also found evidence of mold in the basement crawlspace. I soon called a specialist (he also performed lead inspections) who expressed much further concerns with potential lead due to the age of the home and the ages of my children. He came out to my home with a “lead gun” (I’m sure there is a formal name for that) and left me with a report that was very scary and daunting. “Where do I go next?” - was the question I asked myself late at night trying to figure out a strategy. I spent the next several weeks calling asbestos, lead, and mold contractors. It was extremely overwhelming and I felt way in over my head. My youngest son suffers from asthma, allergies, and a heart condition – so making sure our home was safe BEFORE we moved in has always been the priority. I was getting nowhere and more and more confused with different vendors coming out to our “new” home and providing all different options that left my head spinning. I almost gave up, and then I found Charles. Charles is so much more than I can even express in words. He truly cares, he’s meticulous, he’s knowledgeable, he’s informative, and he’s passionate. The first time he came out to our home he did baseline testing to break down for us where everything was at its current state. This was extremely helpful in proving that the remediation experts indeed made the problem much better instead of making it worse. Please be careful that there are many remediation companies out there that perform their own testing themselves AFTER their job has been completed. The tests are nowhere near as specific as what Charles performs. Charles put everything into perspective for me and took the time to actually teach me about all of the tests that he would be performing and why they are specific and important in determining the baseline. We spent hours together on the first visit. He took the time with me to go through the entire house and provide his own visual inspection AND even help me start the project planning process in accordance with my very tight 5-week timeframe. I can still recall driving home that evening and finally feeling a sense of accomplishment and ease that I was now in the right hands and we would be getting the proper guidance in this journey towards make our home safe for our family. Charles is extremely responsive and hard-working. I swear the guy works around the clock and never stops! It’s so appreciated when you’re under such time constraints and need answers and planning. There is never any hesitation with him. We began the project planning together and I started bringing in vendors to evaluate the scope of the work and keep us on our timeline. He was always one step ahead – creating detailed reports / scope of work and very specific details even down to the exact make / model / size of the dehumidifier that should be utilized after the mold remediation was completed in our crawlspace. Now let’s talk about his inspections – where do I start. If you’re looking for someone to cut corners or turn a blind eye, Charles is NOT for you. If you do indeed want to feel confident in the fact that the contractor that you hired performed their job sufficiently and remediated all underlying issues than Charles IS the guy for you. Charles left no stone unturned in checking the work of my contractors and that is an understatement. Our initial Mold / Asbestos Remediation team provided me with a certificate of completion and “tests” showing that the issues were resolved. The asbestos immediately failed the visual inspection from Charles and the air quality test for mold showed that the levels actually increased after uncovering more mold during the remediation and not treating properly. They came back a second time and passed the asbestos test, but the testing from Charles indicated that the mold worsened yet again. Charles worked with me to hire a new Mold Remediation team with more experience in this arena. Charles spoke with the Project Manager throughout the scope of the remediation which lasted four days and as a result, all mold was remediated and all air quality tests were phenomenal. The due-diligence did not stop here. Charles worked directly with my lead cleanup team to organize when he would be performing his testing after their work was completed. He took all of the weight off my shoulders which allowed me to focus on other parts of the project and prepare for our move. Finally, Charles worked with my environmental company who performed our duct cleaning after everything else was completed. Due to negligence, Charles had failed the visual inspection three times before bringing another company in to perform the job adequately and to professional standards. Without Charles, I would have been naive to have assumed that the job was completed properly and would have exposed my son with lung and heart problems to filthy air coming from ducts that were not properly cleaned and most likely would have triggered an asthma attack. I kept asking myself throughout this process – “how many innocent families trust that the work they are having done by professionals is being done properly and to the highest standards?”. We as consumers trust in the fact that contractors come to do their jobs properly (and I’m sure many do!), but that was NOT the case for us and we NEVER would have been privy to this if it wasn’t for Charles. It’s been an adventure, but one I would do over again with him by our side. In retrospect, we honestly NEVER could have done this without Charles – he is so much more than a health inspector. At this point in time and after all we’ve been through, I’d much rather call him a friend! There is nobody else out there like him and trust me – I’ve done the research and spent the countless hours looking for someone like him (before actually finding him). I now feel confident in the decision that we made to purchase our “new” farmhouse and are looking forward to many, many years of health and happiness in our safe home with Charles ultimately being the main reason for this

  Needed paint lead tested and removed. Was a pleasure to do business with. Very straightforward and honest. Gave an accurate quote (which was less than the other quotes I got) and completed the work quickly and left the area cleaner than before work was started. Would hire again if needed in the future

  Charles was fantastic to work with and the service was excellent. Within days we had a full assessment with comprehensive reports regarding our home's lead, asbestos, and mold hazards. I couldn't recommend working with Charles more highly! You'll get personalized one-to-one service (he does all the inspections himself) with clear and specific results that give you real peace of mind and the ability to quickly remedy any issues that are uncovered

  This is a review that is long overdue. My fiancé and I have put in an offer in a home in Westchester. Being how hot the housing market is for sellers during the pandemic, we needed to accelerate our buy-side of the process. As a first time home buyer (and a city kid who knew little about houses), I needed someone who was knowledgable and personable. After doing some research online, I found Andy and Poseidon Home Inspectors. Andy was easy to talk to. During our initial phone call, he explained his process and what he intended to do. He was transparent of his fees and what was expected after the inspection. After setting the date and time of the home inspection, he advised that he and my fiancé be present for the inspection. We listened and we were very satisfied with his work. Professional and exceeded expectations. Andy went through the house, inside and out, with great detail. I think we spent at least an hour on the outdoor space. He explained what he was looking for, what to look out for, and briefly how to maintain various aspects of the house. He showed us what was considered a simple home repair that almost anyone can do to large projects requiring contractors. Andy also explained what we should consider in terms of home maintenance annually, in five years, in ten, etc. The inspection lasted at least 4 hours for a 3-story home. At the end, we received a detailed 60-page report of his findings with the pictures he taken. It was a very concise report with even estimated price for suggested fixes. Not exact numbers but definitely useful for us in helping us financially plan for the future. The report was delivered to us, two days after the inspection, on a Sunday. If that doesn't say great service, then I don't what is. Overall, Andy provided extraordinary service and definitely helped alleviate our anxiety as first-time home buyers. I compared notes with my brother, who just bought a home and went through a home inspection, and he was surprised his detail. I don't write reviews but the service he provided made me stay up late to write this. Please give him and his company a shot if you require a home inspection. I'll reiterate again. Exceeded our expectation

  EAS immediately answered my inquiry and he was able to schedule for the next day. Charles, the owner of the company personally came to inspect the apartment and did a very thorough check of the air quality, lead, asbestos and mold. We called him in to test for visible mold and he found that we had a bigger problem then what we originally called him in for. I highly recommend his services and quick turn around on the lab results and inspector report

  The Extensive Repairs that Restoration Experts of NY did was EXCELLENT-OUTSTANDING-EXCEPTIONAL. Let me say that I am not experienced in Home Repair; and am clueless with the simplest home repairs. I had a small fire in my parents house on LI NY ; and due to the Great Response of the Local Fire Dept. was able to contain the damage ; although due to getting into the house in a few different places there was much additional damage (which was better then having the house burn to the ground). There was also smoke damage in the entire house , & water damage that spread to many areas from the containment. Restoration Experts of NY was one of the Preferred Restoration / Construction Companies given to me from my Insurance Co.. ( They were on Top of the List). They came out to look and I Immediately knew that this was the Restoration co. to work with. My mother went to brothers House 800 miles away and I after the first meeting went back to my House 1300 miles away. Since we were both far away Restoration Experts would almost on a daily basis tell us what they were doing ; and ALWAYS gave me choices prior to the work ( when choices were needed instead of going ahead with the work without my input). I had TOTAL CONFIDENCE from 1300 miles with ONLY being on-sight 2 times during the re-build. Restoration Experts also used the Computer and Cell Phones to send me images of the work. It's Important to know that this Restoration was done at the height of the Covid-19 Crisis ; and yet through their decades old vendors ; got the job done with very few minor vendor delays. The House looks Brand New. Their Interface with the Insurance Co. was Terrific and also all the other groups they had to deal with that you would never suspect needed to be done before and during the re-build. A 60 YO House that was looking like a 60 yo House ; NOW Looks Brand New and probably has Increased the Value of the House by $400K. All Your Construction Needs will go far beyond any expectation you have ; and your ONLY should be Respiration Experts. I certainly will be glad to speak with you in person. Get my # from Restoration of NY. Thank you Angi for allowing me to write a review. Ed K LI N
