"I had 3 quotes to have the mold in my basement removed. Comprehensive was by far the most inexpensive, by thousands. They showed up when they said they would, They finished the job in the exact time stated, two and a half days. I feel like I have a brand new basement. It is cleaner than when they got there also. They even told us about a small water leak by the washing machine that we never noticed, just a small drip on the faucet. Great people to deal with and since they have an excellent warranty on their work, I probably won't need to talk to them again but if I do I know they will respond in the typical professional manner. Fabulous Job.."

I thought their price was a little high, in the beginning, but by the time the job was done and I saw the quality of their work, the care they took to not make a mess, cleaned up every day, showed us what they did each day and explained why they did what they did. I cant say enough good about these guys. If you have a problem Tom Woodford DOES INDEED ANSWER HIS PHONE and he will speak to you promptly should you have a question. "
