Get matched with top toxicity and mold removers in Chester, NY

"Was able to schedule a free consultation immediately and they looked through the basement to talk through possible mold issues. Turned out we didn’t have a mold problem but he answered all of our questions and was very kind!"

"After calling in a panic with a foot of water in my basement, the owner and his staff came ASAP and vacuumed up the water, calmed us down, removed all the valuables like furniture, rugs and memorabilia to a safer place. They left dryers and fans in place 24 hours to prevent more damage from developing such as mold. They helped me maneuver my way through the insurance maze. My family and I were very grateful for the professionalism and compassion that was shown at such a stressful time."

"It went great! My parents had a couple of leaks in their house in an upstairs bathroom and mold developed in the basement. Apparently in NY, if there is mold in your house, you must get a NY State licensed mold assessor to determine everywhere that mold is or could be. We got John Skelly’s name from a mold remediation company. John talked to me and explained what things we could and could not do, and what we did and didn’t have to do. He gave us multiple financial options. His fees were very reasonable. It turned out he also is licensed to assess for asbestos and since my parents’ house was built in 1968, we asked him to also check for asbestos. When he got to the house, he looked everything over well and also took air samples which were sent to a lab. He took special pictures showing where there was moisture. Throughout the entire process, he talked to me on the phone as well as by text and email, constantly keeping me apprised of all that was happening. After he was done, he sent me an email with a letter explaining everything to me-and to the mold remediator we hired-that included what they needed to do and where. It was a detailed letter with an incredible amount of data referring to moisture content, types of mold, and possible reactions to living with mold, among other things. He had a lot of technical equipment. He took multiple pictures showing where the mold and water damage was and included these in his report. Many of these photos were taken with special cameras and equipment. He even cited an incredible array of research and information if we or the remediators or anyone else wanted more information or knowledge. I forwarded the email to the remediators and they got to work. At the remediator's suggestion we had John come back again to “clear” the work they did, when they were almost done. He looked everything over well and took more air samples which he again sent to a lab. He told the remediators to do a few minor additional things but said they were primarily done. He did great work and was very thorough. For example at one point the mold remediators told him they had detected moisture content in one place a week before John came to the house even though he did not detect any there a week later. Rather than leaving that out of his report, he went back to the house and took a moisture reading again, and then included that information-citing the photos they took showing the moisture readings the remediators got-when they had been there. John is obviously smart and clearly knows what he is doing. When he wrote what the remediators needed to do, he wrote out quite an elaborate plan for them including the precautions they should take and what equipment they should use and where. While I’m pretty certain that many remediators know most of what he discussed, I’m fairly certain it was still very useful for them to know his recommendations since he is licensed to evaluate if and where mold is and how to best deal with it. It was also useful to me to know the extent of the work that was needed as well as the precautions the remediators needed to take to keep my elderly parents safe during the process. It was also impressive that he had all of that knowledge. In addition to everything else mentioned, John was also very supportive and was extremely helpful. When he learned from the remediators that my parents had a leak that hadn’t been able to be seen before the sheetrock on the walls and ceilings were down, he got out a ladder and looked at the leak carefully, even though it was way up in the ceiling in their basement. He had my Mom flush the toilet and took video of where the water was leaking so that we could show it to the plumber we next hired, as well as to the insurance company to demonstrate where the leak was and that it couldn’t be seen until the drywall was down from the walls and ceilings. He told us with this new information that he believed there was a leak in some part of the toilet and that this is clearly causing a leak and is likely what caused most or all of the mold. He really went above and beyond for us. He didn’t need to have done any of what I just mentioned above. In the end he wrote up another report talking about the remediators and the leaks. He also wrote it so that we could show the insurance company and let them know what was going on. Between John and the mold remediators my parents and I ended up having what could have been a very dragged-out, annoying, costly situation, be something that was as painless as possible and was even quite interesting and informative. As I said above, John really went above and beyond for us. He didn’t need to do some of the things he did. You cannot go wrong if you hire him to assess mold or asbestos or anything else he is licensed to evaluate, in your home. I very highly recommend John Skelly."

"I received the kit very quickly, followed the easy to understand instructions for mold collection, returned the kit and received my report in just a few days. I called the office with additional questions after receiving the report. My questions were answered quickly and professionally. Great customer service."

"The whole job went very well. Dominick and his guys did exceptional work....fast, neat, you could see that they have done this type of work many times before. After the remediation work was complete, Dominick had called and sent me all the test results. The detailed report listed all of his and our concerns with regards to our mold problem. All concerns were remedied and now we feel safe in our home. If you have a mold problem in your home, call Dominick. You will not be sorry........Thanks Dominick, sincerely Steve and Barb F."

"Dennis was fantastic. Quick to respond. Easily accessible. Easy to book appointment with. Was helpful and helped us learn more about mold. Excellent service. Would hire again in a heart beat."

"Mike did a great job explaining the process he uses and what to expect. He arrived on time and did a very thorough job, following up with emails to make sure I was satisfied. The treatment was successful and there is no more mold/mildew smell."

"Andy responded promptly for my request for evaluation and options for remediation of an old 'cold cellar' in my mother's home.  As an Angie's list member living 500+ miles away from my mother's home, it was reassuring to be able to use Angie's list to find contractors. <br /> Andy arrived on time for the inspection of the basement area and was professional in his offering of options for remediation.  When I indicated that there were health concerns for my mother during the cleaning process, he demonstrated how he would secure the area and scrub the air in order to minimize any health risks for my mother.  <br /> He provided a detailed proposal of his work and worked with my brother and I to be available to execute the work on a date that fit our schedules.  The work was done as promised, thoroughly and professionally as promised. Andy also offered to leave the air scrubbing equipment in place an additional day to ensure that my mother would not incur any health issues from the site cleaning.  <br /> I want to thank Andy and his team for working with us to clean this area and most importantly completing the work without any health risks to my mother.  They did a great job and I would not hesitate to work with them in the future should any additional mold remediation work is needed. <br />"

"Wayne came out with in a day of calling. He was friendly, professional, and gave us all the information we needed right on the spot. Pricing was the best out of 5 other quotes. Project was started the next day and completed the following day. We were on a deadline for a house closing the following week. He left the job site clean, the crawlspace look like new construction and not 20 years old. Gave us recommendations for the new owners and he kept us updated throughout the whole process. We highly recommend them. We will be using him to treat and take care of our other 2 houses in NJ."

"As first time home buyers we hired them to clean our carpets. The crew came in and did a wonderful job. They took their time and was so responsive and respectful. Most importantly left our home smelling and looking brand new. I'll definitely recommend ABC Carpet &Upholstery to do the job. We plan on using them again in the near future as well.Worth the time and every penny."
