"I am a renter, but I was very involved with my landlord in the restoration process of the townhome I rent after a slab leak occurred under my kitchen floor. Sarah Gilliland/Paul Davis Restoration handled the insurance claim repairs. As this is the third(!) claim over the past 5 years, I have had extensive experience with restoration companies. Paul Davis Restoration was definitely the best restoration company I have personally dealt with. Sarah was very attentive and compassionate with the needs of my landlord and me, always returning our phone calls and having the answers we needed even before asking! Her crew acted professionally in all facets of their work, especially the move out/move back of my furniture and contents - all handled with care and consideration. Sarah and her crew made a difficult situation easier to go through, and it was a pleasure to work with her."

"I couldn’t be happier with the earthquake retrofit done by MVP Remodeling. When I selected the company for the EBB retrofit, they weren’t the cheapest estimate, but they were far from the most expensive. Joseph explained the process and scope of work clearly and I was confident that selecting them was the best decision. Beginning the work was delayed as we found I had skunks living in my crawl space and I had to find someone to deal with that problem. My contact person at MVP, Maya, was wonderful throughout. She kept in touch with me and scheduled the retrofit immediately as soon as my skunk situation was resolved. Throughout the process, Maya guided me as to what I needed to do on the EBB Dashboard, and she submitted their materials immediately. It couldn’t have gone any smoother!

"There was mold in my closet and I knew it was probably not a great idea to live with it. Chris Gibbons gave me clear and useful information about the options and trade-offs and broke through the noise. Seems like the other "experts" and insurance people I talked to were just adding confusion. Recommend Paul Davis Pasadena highly if you have mold."

"This was my second project with HEXAGON CONSTRUCTION and by far the largest and most complex. (Replacing an old, clay tile roof on a three story house is no job for a rookie.) HEXAGON’s owner, Eli Vatkin, is what everyone should be looking for in a contractor. He’s knowledgeable, reasonably priced, trustworthy, responds promptly to any concerns that you have during the project, keeps you apprised of its progress, finishes on time, and generally aims to please. His contracts were straightforward and “by the book.” On top of that, he’s a genuinely nice guy. Rarely will you find all these qualities in a contractor—and I’ve been around long enough to know. "

"THE WORST EXPERIENCE EVER! We signed a contract with Yakov to design an ADU. He raved that his engineer was on his staff as an employee and that she previously worked for LA planning so she understood how to more efficiently complete plans to be done sooner. The mistakes and time in between for her to submit corrections were so long there was no reason for it. When we were given so many excuses I contacted the city myself to get a true timeline and found that the corrections were issued by city and they were very basic items that any engineer should not have even had an issue with and weeks and over 2 months would go by that she did not respond to the corrections. When we reached out to Yakov to get resolution he brushed us off and said we had to handle it with the engineer. He did not always respond to calls.

Water and Smoke Damage Repair questions, answered by experts

DIY cleanup is not recommended due to hazardous soot, odors, and potential structural issues.

Smoke can be tricky to remove from your home, especially after a fire. The best way to eliminate the smell is to open the windows to increase ventilation and air circulation in your house. Then, use white vinegar to wipe down walls, furniture, and floors. Try steam-cleaning carpet and other upholstered items to remove the smell of smoke.

It depends. For new ovens, it’s best to run a few empty cycles to prepare the oven for use and to keep any manufacturing byproducts from entering your food. But if your oven is smoking due to a few burnt pieces of old food, then it probably won’t hurt to eat it. If there’s a lot of smoke, then your food probably won’t taste good, even if it might not be harmful to consume.

Costs range from $1,000 to $10,000, depending on the extent of the damage and affected areas.

On average, you should expect the fire damage restoration process to take two weeks, but the timeline can vary widely depending on the extent of the damage and the type of fire damage you have. Minor cooking fires that you’re able to extinguish yourself may only take a day or two to clean soot and remove smoke odors, while restoring an entire section of a home or fixing structural damage after a major house fire can take six to 12 months. Ask your professional for a more accurate timeline for your specific project.
