"We contacted this company based on the positive reviews. It seems as though that there aren't many companies who want to touch this type of work (so to speak). Or, if they do they are expensive. DJK wasn't much of an exception. They did respond rather quickly when I had first contacted them. They came out and inspected the suspected mold problem area in our bedroom. So finally about 3 weeks later, $1,330.00 and 2 hours of work AND for a 2' x 2' square hole cut out in our bedroom wall. And, they had sprayed a potent biocide chemical that hopefully killed our mold problem! They don't do any mold air quality testing at all. Hence, a lab is involved. DJK will come out in advance and use a moisture meter that is supposed to detect where the moisture sits. Then they zero in on the behind the walled suspect area. That problem was caused by another painting contractor who supposedly did caulk around our windows! Apparently not. Otherwise water wouldn't have seeped in and caused this issue. Oh well, another review and problem for another day. We think it's now gone. And we'll be happier for that part. They charge extra to repair the plaster wall with a drywall (NOT plaster). You'll have to hire someone else to do plaster repair if that is what you want. Don't forget about replacing the possibly contaminated wall insulation that they may take out and dispose of. Then figure either priming and painting it yourself after the plaster has cured. Or, hiring yet another darned contractor. In short, I think DJK does the job ok, but they ain't cheap. We will see."

"Barry did a fantastic job on my basement! I had water coming in through a window well, which got behind my drywall, and mold started growing. Barry’s organic, anti-microbial products completely eliminated the mold without even needing to cut out any of the drywall. And all for much less cost than standard mold remediation. I am not always a natural products consumer, but I must say that Barry’s methods worked great! Super highly recommended. Barry knows basements!"

"L.A.D.S. employees are very professional and conduct an ethical, compassionate and caring service. They follow industry standards for effective removal of mold, placing the customers personal health first and foremost. They communicate well and remain in contact post-remediation to make sure everything has been addressed or needs follow-up. They are very efficient in addressing concerns or requests on our behalf for additional information or documentation. They are thorough in educating customers on reasons for mold remediation and next steps."

"I thought I had mold in a house that I just bought. Workers were on time and very professional. They did a mold test, which ended up being negative. I would hire them again"

"The serviceman showed me where the problem was and explained what they would do to correct it. He explained their procedure, what the equipment was for and how they would complete the job. He showed me the end results. The carpeting was covered during the process, and vacuumed after the job was completed. I was very pleased with their work. The only problem I noticed after they left was that their equipment put a gouge in the doorway and in the door of the room that they put their venting tube through to the window."

"He had a cancellation and was able to come out the day I called. He verified that we actually didn't have mold growing in the one area. Since that area was connected to an indoor hot tub room, he checked the tub room just to verify that all was ok in there. He gave me some tips on preventing mold in that tub room and informed me about some other areas to watch (as this was in the basement and we have had water get inside with heavy rain) and I asked him about some marks on my basement ceiling. He was very knowledgeable and helpful. Will definitely be calling if need for future services."

"We would certainly recommend Jay Cricks/North Star Cleaning to anyone in need of their services. Jay came to our house and was thorough in his investigation into our mold problem. We know this because our insurance investigator said the same. Jay was timely in settiing up the removal of the mold. He was very personable in his explanation of what had to be done and how it would be accomplished. He informed us of all the noise problems as well as any inconvenience that we may encounter during the week long restoration. Everything was cleaned up and fixed to our satisfaction. A job well done!"

"Bob and his crew were terrific and have gone above and beyond to assist me with my mold issue and the purchase of my new home."

"The technician did an excellent job. It did take a while to get the repair finished, but that was due to Bertazzoni delivering the parts. I have had multiple problems with this particular appliance. My range now works better than it did when new, but I have a feeling that even if I have continuing problems with it, American Home Shield will just repair rather than replace due to the cost of the range. By the way, I'm not exactly sure of the date of the repair."
