"Submerge Restoration installed laminate flooring throughout my house.. Significant problems with the installation were immediately obvious, and called to the installer's attention. Rather than correct the problems, the installer has ignored my emails, voicemails, and text messages. It has been six months now since the work was done. It appears I will have to seek restitution through legal action. Very unfortunate."

Our Board Certified Environmentalists utilize standard mold tests as well as advanced environmental testing, when needed, that no other mold testing companies offer. We offer lower pricing and unrivaled customer service as we not only assign you a Board Certified Mold Inspector to conduct your testing, we also assign every client a personal Sr. Mold Analyst to explain your certified microbiology reports and help guide you step by step through the confusing world of mold contamination. We provide not only exceptional service, but the peace of mind your family or your co-workers deserve.

"On May 25, 2022 I spoke to a representative of the Mold Test Company and explained that I had recently inherited a property and had not been lived in for quiet some time and was beginning the restoration process to make it livable again which included having a mold test completed. I was quoted $499 for the complete test in addition to a $50 deposit that was required to confirm appointment. I made it clear that I currently lived over 4 hours away from the property needing the test but we agreed upon a date and time that worked for all parties. Deposit was paid over the phone for confirmed 11am on 5/29/2022. I arrived at the property at 10:40am yet the technician called me about 15 after 11am to inform me the he was 15 minutes away. Arriving at church 11:30. We walk through the property and he gives me some information and points out a few things and then prepares to set up his equipment only to realize he would need a generator to complete being that the home isn’t occupied and has not been for quite some time, there is no electricity. I point out that I was not informed the equipment needed electricity although I mentioned the property had been closed up for years when making the appointment. As the expert and professional this should have been clarified prior to confirming appointment or taking payment. Technician informed that he had a generator but it wasn’t with him and he lived about 2 hours away so the appointment that I had driven 4+ hours to make would have to be rescheduled. It then took almost a full week for someone to return and follow up about this issue in which the solution suggested was to Mail this company the keys to my property to conduct the test in my absence and hitch was a red flag because I don’t know them for one and if I’m not there to see them test my property how do o know they’d even travel back to my property and complete a test instead of just telling they did and charging $499. I refused to send my keys and instead asked for a refund of my deposit. I was told he would submit my request and ended the call About a month later I still had not received my refund or any communication of it so I called and after several attempts spoke to someone who informed me that my refund request was denied because the technician said I refused services at the door and something else about canceling rescheduled appointment when nothing was every rescheduled to begin with and service was not completed bc technician did not have the necessary information equipment. I total LIE over $50. My $50 that I work hard for and have already been more than inconvenienced over. I have tried multiple time to remediate this issues but I just keep getting shuffled around to leave voicemails and no answers about my money. This is extremely unprofessional and unreasonable. I will follow up with the BBB and CFPB as well. Unacceptable and should be removed as a reliable referral from Angi"

Water and Smoke Damage Repair questions, answered by experts

Yes, a bowl of vinegar can absorb smoke. If you want to use this method to reduce the smoke smell in your house, all you have to do is leave a bowl (or multiple bowls) of white vinegar out overnight. Alternatively, you can use bowls of baking soda, coffee grounds, or activated charcoal.

You’ll know you have smoke damage if you notice a lingering smoky odor, see soot or residue, or spot any discoloration of surfaces in your home. If you have any kind of house fire, always assume you have smoke damage and hire a professional who deals with smoke damage to assess the extent of the damage and restore your home to its pre-fire condition.

All of the components of stucco are non-combustible, so the siding material won’t ignite or spread fire to the interior of your home. However, it also expands and contracts with changes in temperature, so it will crack from long exposure to heat. Eventually, fire will spread through those cracks. Still, stucco is one of the best siding materials for fire protection and can keep you and your family safe for an hour, on average.

Yes, many providers offer 24/7 emergency repair services to prevent inventory loss.

Smoke smell can linger for months or even years and will not go away on its own once it’s penetrated into your walls, floors, ceilings, and furniture. The particles that give smoke its distinctive smell can permeate every corner of your home and can take a very long time to dissipate. Your best bet to combat smoke smell is a combination of thorough cleaning, air purifying, and replacing heavily damaged materials.
