Do not hire this company. Save yourself the hassle. They literally messed up every bit of work after a fire restoration. Communication is horribleâ ¦very slow process. Horrible work. I do not like giving bad reviews but I felt obligated to warn others. This is by far the worst work on a house that Iâ ve ever seen. I donâ t even think they did anything by code. This company shouldnâ t be allowed to operate.

Did not perform some of the work that was included in estimate and paid for and after brought to attention in walkthrough it was covered up. Detach resets not done when inspected. Afterwards noticed later they only painted closer to tape. Could see old color that was original in the screw holes not used. Toilets and sinks still had existing caulk and paint underneath and behind could. Still see the old color. Was told they donà ¢à  à  t usually do those even when it was included in insurance estimate as it helps cover the cost they charge for other areas not making enough on

They fully understood what needed to be done to fix the issue and Matt worked very hard to finish the project within a day.

Homestar has been a breath of fresh air. My home had water damage in the kitchen downstairs and bathroom. I was DEVASTATED! They are very professional working with my Public Adjuster and I. Mike came to do an estimate/consultation he was very professional and kind. They were upfront with their insurance business license and disclosures. They are working with my PA to provide a detailed scope to my insurance company and completed my estimate within 3 DAYS! Iâ m very satisfied and definitely recommend working with HOMESTAR!

The Homestar Group is the best! Jeremy, Brad and the team worked with me on a large plumbing job at my home. They were able to come a day early and were amazing, making sure everything worked perfectly! They are dedicated, experienced and very hardworking professionals. Greatly appreciate them and will be using them again in the future.

I am disappointed in understanding what I should have expected to be done. Yes they did remove the mold problem from my home. However I did not appreciate how my room was treated when moving different things around in my bedroom. Previously I had asked whether I needed to remove everything from the room. I was told that the workers would be able to take care of it. I did remove some of my more personal items but left the room as it was. When the job was so called finished, these things which were moved were not replaced but left for me to replace. There were still some personal things which were stacked in a manner for which if I was told should be removed, I would have placed and stored them in a better place. Also I had asked that only some of the carpet be removed due to the mold. Before I was told about the TOTAL removal of the carpet, it was done. The floor was also left with residual padding parts still on the floor. For the final results from the mold removal I didn't realize that I would have to hire someone else to replace the wall and its insulation plus the carpeting/padding.

I hired Homestar Group to handle water damage mitigation and restoration. Itâ s the restoration part of the project that failed terribly. 1. 10/19/2020: Met with Sales Director and Project Manager to go over work to be done. Was told it looked like a 3-to-5-day project. 2. 11/03/2020: Precon meeting set to meet with PM and crew to perform work. They failed to show and did not call or text me to say they would be unable to meet. 3. 11/04/2020: Met with PM and carpenter to go over work again. A plumber was needed to remove the Hot Water Tank. Plumber was a no show. Work was scheduled to begin on 11/09/2020. 4. 11/08/2020: Received an email saying a new person would be used to do the sheetrock repairs. 5. 11/09/2020: Met with PM and new carpenter to go over work again. Work scheduled to begin on 11/11/2020 and plumber would arrive the next day. 6. 11/11/2020: Sheetrock work started. 7. 11/12/2020: Plumber shows up to remove Hot water Tank. He didnâ t know how to drain the tank. Said he would come back the next day with his partner. 8. 11/13/2020: Plumber shows up with his partner. They removed the tank and said they would return later reinstall it. When reinstalling the tank there was a loud spark and I lost all power in my condo. They blew out the circuit breakers for my entire unit. Power was eventually restored and they proceeded to complete the reinstallation. I was told to wait a few hours before I would have hot water. When I still didnâ t have hot water by 7:30 PM I texted the plumber. He texted me back saying he would come back tomorrow at 9:00 AM. 9. 11/14/2020: Plumbers return and removed heating element. Said they would have to pick up replacement and would return later that day. Received email from PM saying the plumbers would not be returning and that I should contact my own plumber to complete the work. I called Donald Tibble, Director of their mitigation division, because I was now three days without hot water and needed help. Don stepped up and said he would get to the bottom of this. A few hours later I received a call from PM saying he arranged to have a new plumber come that afternoon. The new plumber showed up around 4:00 PM. He was carrying a Home Depot bag and had already picked up the two replacement elements. The original plumbers said they checked with Home Depot and Lowes and they did not have the elements in stock. The plumber had to drain the tank again and replace the elements. Took him less than a few hours. He showed me the burnt-out element and said it was caused by the original plumbers turning on the power to the hot water tank before filling it up with water. Basically, he said â Water first then Powerâ . I had hot water again in just a few hours. 10. 11/18/2020: I had my plumber come out to inspect the work and offered PM to meet with us. The PM failed to show up. My plumber confirmed you always have to have water in the tank before turning on the power because the heating element would over heat. This caused my circuit breakers to blow out and fried the heating element. My plumber said the work of the original plumber looked like the work of a handyman and not a professional plumber. He also pointed out that the drip pipe was only half way over the drain and half on the floor. Basically, meaning they did not position the hot water tank correctly. In addition to the missed commitments and shoddy work by unlicensed plumbers, I spotted the carpenter dumping the old hardwood flooring and sheetwork down my condoâ s dumpster chute. Iâ m being charged $174.25 for the removal and hauling away of debris. Iâ m also being charged $622.79 for professional plumbing services. Instead, they used unqualified handymen. I wrote to Homestar on 12/02/2020 and again on 12/09/20 asking them to address the above issues. To this date work has yet to be completed and no response from Homestar.

The crew that came to find & remove any mold was fantastic. They were very professional, and easy to work with.
