We can offer Mold Testing and Remediation. Water Damage. Smoke Damage. Fire Damage. Our owner is on site for all jobs! Call today we work flawlessly with your insurance company.

"I had a poor experience. I hired this company to do a mold assessment in my apartment. I dealt with the owner. First, he requested cash or check payment only. He made an appointment and did not show up or contact me. I had to call him. In one of the rooms, the pipes above and whatever else the cause of the leak was, had been leaking repeatedly for 40 years, and the plaster constantly replaced. I was worried about mold ABOVE the ceiling on the beams and studs and not just the visible mold on the ceiling plaster and I worried it could be black mold. He did not seem to listen to what I told him and he did not use a water meter to check for saturation or a borescope or any other tools except taking a surface sample and air sample (the borescope and water meter I did not know about until after I had paid him for this inadequate job). He did not mention anything I said in the report. He was also rude and unkind and never provided me with a receipt."

"Five stars, phenomenal customer service, very kind, very responsive! On Christmas eve, 2020 our house sustained major water damage. We called Fire Water Pros on a recommendation. Early on Christmas day, the owner of the company, Chris Dailey, showed up ready to help us. They have been wonderful to work with - from the onset Chris made us feel comfortable and taken care of. His communication was excellent throughout, he really helped us navigate all aspects of the clean up - insurance, mitigation, and rebuild. Throughout the entire process, Chris made sure to explain all the steps involved, and was available whenever a question came up.

My abilities and skills afford me to do most work on my own. My contacts in the industry are widespread also. Whatever task/project you need done will take one call to me to get it started. You will not find reliability or sound craftsmanship like this. I only sub-contract if needed and the customer is always informed. Each contract is negotiated differently and I always find a way to work with the customer to come to agreeable terms.

"We asked our realtor for a “pit bull” inspector and she recommended this company. We were present with the inspector and asked a lot of questions and listened intently to his concerns and observations. We left feeling like we had some issues but nothing major. Well, after settlement it became clear that the inspector missed a huge carpenter ant infestation that damaged the entire back of the house including walls and beams. He missed leaking windows and pipes that had cause mold and mildew damage in two separate areas of the house. He missed several areas of roof damage and a decaying rotting exterior chime to structure. When I pointed to the ceiling and said is that brown spot a leak he said no, that’s just a missed paint spot! We made settlement after what we thought was a good inspection report. It turns out that we had to spend tens of thousands of dollars on critical repairs that the inspector missed or assured us were minor. The roof and window leaks were severe. The carpenter ant infestation was critical. Needless to say we were very angry and extremely disappointed that these things got missed and we got misled. We would not recommend this inspector to others."

I have been in business for over twenty five years , I grew to a large co with over tweeny employees and I felt I was loosing the reigns on control of quality and experience setting my co. Above my competition I take pride in my work and knowledge of remodeling and pai noting needs I attended the art institute of Philadelphia for visual communications which I believe gives me the artistic edge my competitors simply don't have I will not try to beat prices you received from other. Contractors I know the right products and right way to do the job and always make sure to get a detailed description when getting estimates Paint house does not say whether or not they will pressure wash (2700 p.s.I. minimum),scrape , putty, replace damaged wood where necessary, primer one coat or just bare wood Anyway comparing apples to apples there's only a handful of capable insured companies in the area yes I'm sure you can get it done cheaper but you'll never beat out my experience or quality So if you want job done correctly and meticulously by a local artist with plenty of happy customers you can talk to about their experience with our co.I'm one of the best choices you can make

We also handle bio-hazard scenarios. • Seven (7) Branch locations - Quickly and efficiently serving PA, DE & NJ (see attached). • State of the art equipment - Including thermal cameras that pinpoint the source of water thereby reducing demolition, vortex extraction equipment which may eliminate the need to remove carpeting / padding and a mobile, large volume desiccant that significantly reduces the time required to dry large structures. We are 30 years old…our methods are not! • Fully insured - Including pollution / mold coverage which is critical in today’s marketplace. • Excellent client communication & customer satisfaction - Dedicated Customer Care Department to further ensure that property owners and managers receive the expected attention and quality workmanship. In a perfect world, you would never require our services and we are the last service that you would want to need…but when disaster strikes, large or small …we are the first you should call.

"Stay away! Do not hire this company!! Fraudulent charges. Lies. Manipulators. Everything was covered by insurance but they are sending me bills for an additional $$$$ and claiming it’s computer error they can’t fix. So called project manager never came out to check on workers. Flooring salesman came out while workers there but he never went in to check on their work. He stayed outside and chatted then left. Painters painted the powder room that was not supposed to be painted and now there is yellow oily substance running down the wall from the paint they used. Worst experience ever."

Lead Testing and Removal questions, answered by experts

If your home was built before 1978, there’s a chance that any paint on your hardwood floors could be lead paint—especially if it was already there when you moved in. Because lead is toxic, hiring a licensed pro to remove it is mandatory. The average price for professional lead paint removal ranges from $1,500 to $5,300 and depends on the scope of the project.

No, you can’t place hazardous waste in a dumpster unless you specifically ordered a dumpster for hazardous waste removal. If the dumpster company finds hazardous waste that it didn’t approve for dumping, the company will return the waste to you, and you’ll likely face a fine for illegal dumping.

DIY kits are available, but professional testing provides more accurate results and legal documentation if remediation is needed.

According to the EPA, there is no safe level of lead in the blood, and so the maximum contaminant level goal (MCLG) for lead in water is zero. Even at low levels, lead is harmful to human health. It can also remain in the body and build up over time with repeated exposure.

Services test for allergens, mold, VOCs, and carbon monoxide levels to ensure a healthy indoor environment.
