Called to try and get a quick appointment due to a deadline with buying a house and the guy laughed at me over the phone. Absolutely horrible. Completely unprofessional. Glad I didn’t even get a chance to book them. I’d rather spend my money and put my trust in elsewhere.

I trust WET to do anything in my home. I cannot say enough about these guys! The WET Staff help you with everything you need to do to get your house back to working and safe order! They come out as quickly as they can. The crews are knowledgeable and professional but also friendly, patient and kind. They are diligent in their work and also clean up after themselves. We have had to use them TWICE with two separate issues on two separate homes and I would not recommend anyone else. If you want the job done right, you choose The Water Extraction Team, period! Also beware that some insurance companies will use scare tactics and tell you that you cannot choose your own restoration company. THAT IS FALSE! Insurance companies have companies they work with a lot and so they refer them to continue the business but that doesn't mean YOU have to use them. Choose the Water Extraction Team! I am very pleased and grateful for all they have done for me and my family!

Rhett and the team at WET are amazing. They were friendly and professional. They returned to the house everyday to check on the status of everything. They were so quiet at times moving equipment in and out they had the job was done before I even knew they started. I would say the team goes above and beyond what we expected!

They came in and set up to dry out carpet, drywall and hardwood floors! They had to dry all three floors of the house! Some of the drywall had to be taken down as well.

We bought a fixer-upper that had mold issues. After contacting a recommended mold ?expert? who tested and gave us a report, they recommended a quick fogging and cleaning. I knew Joe through their company?s continuing education classes and asked him to take a look at the report and home. He immediately pointed out flaws in the other expert?s report and pointed out glaring mistakes taken by the previous owner and missed by our ?expert?. I shudder to think what would have happened if I never had a real professional, like Joe, examine the house. My family and I would be living in a potentially hazardous environment. With Joe?s help, we were able to negotiate a better deal on the purchase of the home. We used Joe?s company to remediate the mold. They were professional, friendly and most importantly, on schedule. We completed 3 days early! Joe communicated with me regularly so I knew how we were progressing and let me know when hiccups occurred. I highly recommend trusting Joe and Water Extraction Team!

It rained pretty badly, and and it was wet by the couch. I didn't bother checking the next day, but later I discovered it was drenched. Then, because of the warm weather, I was concerned about the possibility of mold. Ken & Diane came out and confirmed everything was ok, and suggested I get a handyman to come out and fix things once they dry out. They told me they thought it could be clogged downspouts from shingles falling apart. They were wonderful!!! We did have another company to come out and extract the water, but just wanted to have Water Extraction Team check and make sure everything was okay (we used the other company 1st because we'd heard from someone else that they had 24 hour service, and we wanted to get the water removed asap). Now that we had the Water Extraction Team come out, we learned they also have 24 hour service, so would call them immediately in the future. They were fabulous from beginning to end.

The person that answered the phone when I called was friendly and polite, which in my book first impressions are important. She was very helpful and answered all my questions. I had told her I wasn't sure what to do, that we had gotten the water out but that the basement was very wet and I wasn't sure what would be save-able and what wouldn't be and how to dry it out. So she said that they could come out to take a look and would let us know if there was anything they could do, and for them to do that was free of charge. I was offered a choice to have someone come out now or set up at a later date. I chose to have them come out now. She said the technician would be there shortly. It didn't take them long to get here. He assessed the situation, was very friendly, polite and knowledgeable. There was no pushy sales pitch or anything like it, he actually made me feel like he cared about my situation, which in my opinion is the best way to get a sale. It irritates me when you feel pressured into something and he did not do that. I of course was disappointed to find out that we may even have a more extensive problem than I thought and will check into his suggestion. But for the most part was very pleased with their response and suggestion's. The technician left us with an estimate that I will check with my insurance co to see if the work could be covered. They did not perform any work at this time so I cannot comment on that but they did come out and assess my situation as they said they would and offered an estimate of what it would cost to clean up and also offered other suggestions as to what could be done to keep the basement dry in the future. Overall I was pleased with the friendly service I received from this company and will call them back if there is a need to.

Overall it was good and they were reliable. I thought they were a little careless and didn’t save enough things that were not affected. They could have been more practical about what they removed and what they saved. Their response met our expectations.

Basically what they did to the house went well, but in order to do it, they removed many boxes and placed them in a storage container. THEY DID NOT MARK WHAT WAS IN ANY OF THE BOXES. That has created a major mess for me. They did not clean up in some places very well.
Description of Work
The team removed the walls, tile and carpet, and ceiling in 2 rooms. I was told there was mold in the rooms and that was why it had to be done. They placed a treatment on everything to prevent the mold from reappearing.

I have never had a better experience with a service provider. I am an out-of-state landlord and Lisa and Joe walked me through every step of the process. They suggested who to call and when. They provided exact terminology to relate to the insurance company. They even talked my tenant in off the ledge, when she was sure she would be out of the condo for a month. She was resettled in 9 days!

Water Extraction Team, WET, removed water damaged materials from two baths and the living room. They performed mold remediation and brought in an Air Quality Tech to expedite sampling. They also got me in touch with a construction contractor to repair all the water damage and mold removal damage.

The experience went very well, but it took them awhile in regards to coordination with the different companies involved. The work took six months to completely finish. I felt that they sometimes put us on the back burner, but I was unavailable too for awhile. It also took them awhile to find the wood to match in my kitchen, but they were able to do so. Overall, I was pretty happy with them.
Description of Work
Initially I called them, since I needed some flood restoration work done. They showed up around 5 or 6 PM, and they took care of everything.

Member, Thank you for the review, Water Extraction Team only did the clean up and the drying of your property, your insurance company reffered you to the contractor who did the rebuild. Can you please rewright your review about your experience with Water Extraction Team.

All the floor drains in my basement overflowed on a Sunday night after returning from my spring break. I had two companies come to estimate the cleanup on Monday. WET had the lower offer by a wide margin, so I chose them. They were very professional and did a good job. The affected area is totally clean and after a week, no smell has returned. I'm very pleased with them. They started Tuesday morning and removed the standing sewage, then threw out all the unsalvageable materials (carpet, drywall, particle board furniture, etc). They steam-cleaned everything that remained and sprayed disinfectant. They even steamed the path that they had been using to get in and out of the house. After that, they ran dehumidifiers and a large number of fans for three days. The supervisor came to the site twice a day to check the equipment, record the humidity in each room, and measure the moisture content of the remaining materials. After the drying was done, they sprayed another round of disinfectant all around.

I hired these guys to clean and sanitize my basement after a major sewer overflow. All the removal and cleanup was done on the first day, then drying lasted another three. The price was reasonable (thousands lower than ServPro).

They did a pretty decent job but they missed one of the rooms that they said was dry but it was wet. They unplugged the refrigerator in our basement, which caused us food loss. But they did reimburse for that.
