"Hired for 2 jobs. They are very nice, but they do not know what they are doing and they do not complete the work that they contract. Didn't nail down Advantech subfloor to joist correctly (literally missed the joist in several places), and it makes creaking and popping noises. Broke our floor joist by trying to jack up entire house with bottle jack instead of using the sister boards we gave them to level the floor. Contracted for dry wall skim coat on two rooms ceiling job. Only skim coated one room and partially patched (there were screw heads not covered and corners not done) and they did not skim coat the other room. The skim coat was uneven and left multiple large lumps and divits. I sent pictures of problems. They said pay now and call them back after it was painted. Paint did not hide corner cracks, unsealed drywall tape, unsanded lumps, etc. Had to hire another company to do the job correctly. So we paid double for the job. "

"Rapid Response Restoration did an outstanding job with the mold removal in my basement in a room that was previously a coal bin during the 1900s. From start to finish, their team was skilled, knowledgeable, and incredibly thorough. They arrived on time each day, explained every step of the process clearly, and followed through exactly as promised. I especially appreciated their honesty—no surprises, just straightforward, high-quality work. My basement room is now clean, safe, and completely restored from mold. I highly recommend Rapid Response Restoration to anyone needing mold remediation or restoration services."

"I recently asked for some estimates for painting our entire home exterior, having our three sets of stairs rebuilt, fixing several of our windows, and repairing several door jams. After reviewing the estimates in detail, I decided to go with Shane Franich of GreenFrog LLC. He was always prompt and courteous, and answered all my calls and messages on a timely basis. His estimate was very reasonable for the work being provided, and along with Marco of Prime Construction, did an excellent job on the painting and repair of our home. I would definitely use them again for any future projects!"

"Lesson learned. Always get an estimate. BEFORE the work is done. At least a digital copy. Arrangements for the project were made, with some one named Lynn, for the company to send someone to complete the work. We were quoted over the phone 4500-5000 which included a mold test. A sub contractor with an entirely different company (National Mold Company) was sent. When the contractor arrived, he stated that the job would be much more simpler than first thought. This led us to believe that the job would cost less, no. All said and done, they charged $5500. All said and done, it's almost like no work was done. The stains and the smell are still there. Only one actual board was taken upon the attic room. The ceiling in the bedroom was primed and painted but are still visible and have a funky smell. At this point I'm going to. Do what we should have done; Do the job ourselves. Just now with $5500 less dollars in our pockets. A detailed receipt was not given even though it was requested."

Water and Smoke Damage Repair questions, answered by experts

If your oven is new, then it’s likely that the oven smoking is due to it being a new unit. In this case, you don’t need to worry about the oven smoking. However, if your oven is old, you can’t identify any burnt food or grease that could be behind the smoking, or you have concerns about the heating element, then you should hire an oven technician to inspect your unit.

DIY restoration for small areas is possible with proper safety gear and equipment, though comprehensive damage benefits from professional restoration.

Yes, a bowl of vinegar can absorb smoke. If you want to use this method to reduce the smoke smell in your house, all you have to do is leave a bowl (or multiple bowls) of white vinegar out overnight. Alternatively, you can use bowls of baking soda, coffee grounds, or activated charcoal.

Ozone smoke removal makes use of an ozone generator to remove odors from building materials and belongings. Ozone is an unstable element that will oxidize organic compounds, so it can neutralize the odor when it interacts with smoke particles. Ozone can be an effective way to remove smoke smell from wood furniture, but it’s best to leave this treatment to a professional. Living in a house with smoke damage isn’t always safe, but improper use of an ozone generator can also be dangerous to your health.

Depending on who’s doing the estimating, about 22,000 to 25,000 chimney fires happen each year in the United States. Given the fact that millions of Americans have fireplaces (and chimneys), that means chimney fires aren’t exactly common—but they’re not rare, either. Since they’re so dangerous, it’s important to take precautions to prevent them.
