"Patrick is very knowledgeable about mold remediation, I had lots of questions and he was able to answer all of them. I had three qoutes and Breathe Right LLC was the best for me for actually cleaning the air environment. Job was well done! I would highly recommend his services."
"I have been sick for 8 months with various lung , fatigue, EBV, breathing, I missed so much work my 13 plus year job fired me. So when I had this test done and found out that I had very high amounts of a asprigillius mold in my HVAC system and that there was a fairly easy inexpensive remedy and that I will feel so much better I was very happy of the choice that I made to hire this company. The company they referred me to to get what I needed to fix the problem was over the top helpful and could tell he loves his job. I have already referred to a friend who has already made an appointment. I can not wait to apply the remedy, it should be in the mail this week. Thank you Thank you Thank you."
"Went fine. Was irritated that the representative completely unlocked the front door, sealed it up behind plastic so I couldn't easily see it, and left it unlocked and even left the outer screen door open/unlocked. If I hadn't consciously opened the plastic containment and checked, my house would have been completely unlocked and vulnerable to burglary."
"Rapid Restoration was excellent to work with on a water damage issue I had discovered. They worked with me on cleaning an affected surface as well as air quality testing so we could have exact information for the best health of the home. They were able to get started the same day and were professional and wonderful to work with from the first phone call through the completion of the job. Chad is very knowledgeable and his crew was great. It turned out that we did not need to take additional steps for remediation because the diagnostics came back without concerns. I appreciated that this team had the skill and abilities to provide information and work up possible plans from "best case to worst case scenario" then take the most fitting action. We found a perfect result for the home at much lower cost than could have been the case without such an honest exam. I had two other companies out to look and Rapid stood out in terms of timing, communication, assessment, and an efficient plan. I couldn't be happier and will definitely call them again and highly recommend them!"
"Matt Kinder was really great with feedback, explaining his process, and looking for other ways to escalate this situation since I did not receive the support I needed from my landlord. He was very informative."
"Fast response, came next day and did the test. Walked around with me and showed me places he suspected with visual inspection and we talked about potential remediation and costs. Very patient and informative. Results back in a few days."
"Great service. On time, Friendly and fair price. They went above and beyond by explaining the issues and how to resolve them effectively so they don't have to come back and do further repairs in the future. I will definitely be using them again!"
"Carson was quick to respond to my request for services and we were able to schedule an in-person consult right away. We had a tight window to get the job done and he was right on time and got the job done in the allotted time and did a really terrific job for a fair and reasonable price. I would absolutely hire again and recommend Carson and Relax Restoration 100%."

If your home was built before 1989 and still has original vinyl, there’s a high probability of asbestos mixed into the old flooring, which can harm you and your family if it’s disturbed from removal.

If you can locate building records, you may be able simply to see what type of tiles (or bonding agent) was used. Any flooring made between 1950 and 1989 more than likely contains asbestos.
