If you've ever done a remodel you know how stressful it is and how messy it can be!! We've done one before this and I have to say; this is by far our best experience. This company made it as stress free as possible, they always cleaned up after themselves and we're very polite! 10/10

The technician who came to test was great and would definitely recommend him again. However I gave them a low rating because they still have not called to go over the results with me and it has been over two weeks.

I was very happy with the individual that performed the testing. I would have liked a bit more information as to what the test would tell me. I asked if the test would give me a clear YES or NO result, and was told it would. Test came back in the 'MAYBE' range, an option I did not know...
