Get matched with top fire or smoke damage recovery pros in Cincinnati, OH

"AWESOME TEAM! Contractor compromised pipes in upstairs bathrooms. A couple of months later found a hole in the basement ceiling with various circular coloration's around it. Luckily the damage was contained to the half bath. Found Dry Effects, a local company, through Angie’s list. Friday, one call – 4 hours later, Nick –a supervisor-was meeting me at my home. He visually confirmed the issue and then checked the sub floor above confirming the source. Plumbing issue had already been addressed and we could proceed with the cleanup. Nick thoroughly explained the whole process and that the time frame would be complete in a day. The following Thursday, Bryan arrived and started the cleanup. Bryan kept me informed through all the steps. An aerator was left in the sealed area to keep the air moving. This would continue circulate the air and promote the cleanup. Nick was back the next Wednesday to take a quality air sample and review with me that this sample would be sent out to a laboratory for analysis. Monday, Bobbi Jo called – test results were great and could they come out that afternoon to remove the fan and the seal. Met Dave after work and with the removal of the fan and the seal the area was spotless. Comments – team is knowledgeable and goes the extra mile with their customer service. Thanks Angie’s List"

"Garrett and crew are top notch! My husband was sick from hidden mold caused by hidden water damage. It was a very stressful time for us with a lot of moving pieces and everything happening so fast. Garrett earned our trust right away by coming out immediately with air scrubbers and dehumidifiers. He helped alleviate so much of the stress by patiently walking us through all of our options and following up with us every step along the way. He treats his clients like he would if we were family. I hope to never need him again, but should disaster strike I won't hesitate to call him."

"Pros - Provider was very responsive and communication was excellent. I used Angie’s List to request quotes and this provider responded within an hour. Work was scheduled quickly. - Service technician called ahead, was polite, and took the time to explain the process and the work that was to be completed. - Pricing was very good (if requirements were met – see below). Cons - Six registers (@$15/each) located in the finished basement ceiling were very likely not cleaned as the louvers are kept shut in the summer months and cannot possibly be opened without using a step ladder. No ladder was used by the service technician other than one provided by me for access to the main trunk lines. Step ladder was provided after discovering technician using a chair to stand on. - Access holes drilled into the basement duct work left shards of metal on the floor that were not vacuumed or swept at the completion of the work. A few pieces of sharp metal were later found tracked onto a carpeted stairwell. - Debris was found on the floor and on furniture around a few of the return vents, likely a result of the compressed air used to clean the grill. Although I suspect this may be common and normal, I also suspect leaving it there for the homeowner to clean up is not. - Technician did not wear protective shoe covers when walking across carpeting as is typical for most in-home service work. This is particularly notable for a company also in the carpet cleaning business."

"Bob and Donald were amazing! Got everything replaced quickly and efficiently. They were both kind and professional. They also didn't give me the run around on extra fees or hidden ones that I have experienced with other companies. They are also very military-friendly. Thank you so much, I love my updated fixtures!"

"Tri-State Restoration did an amazing job in restoring our basement apartment after it was flooded. Ron, the owner, was quick to respond, and the work was done in a timely & professional manner. Chad was awesome, made the place look good as new! I highly recommend this company."

"Having a water problem is always inconvenient, costly and never fun, but I wished I would have called Teasdale Fenton right away, saving ourselves days of hard work and time, trying to fix the problem ourselves. They came out the next day, after late conversations with the owner and adjuster. Analyzed the situation, gave an estimate we didn't like hearing, BUT ,all things considered, its the smartest thing to do in a basement water issue. They sent a crew out the following day to take care of situation, Thank You Randy and Crew"

"We had experienced a water leakage into our carpet on the first floor, so I contacted experts of Hometown Restoration and spoke with the owner, who was helpful and answered all of my questions. They made a schedule and arrived at our house on that day. First, they inspected the place nicely and then explained to us the whole process of what they would be going to do. It was excellent advice, so I hired them to fix our floors. They could altogether remove all of the water and dry things out, and we are delighted with the work they did. If you face any issue with fire or water damage or need any help regarding other services, I would highly suggest them. They did an excellent job, and it was a fantastic experience to work with them!"

"The company was great to deal with and I'll probably go with them when I need plumbing services in the future. They scheduled my appointment, but when Jim reviewed the service I'd requested, he called and explained it was outside their area of expertise. My problem involves an container and pump located outside my house and he was not confident they could complete service on the unit and suggested I contact another specialty, which I will now do with the help of Angie's List. I appreciate both their honesty and promptness."

"Oh my gosh!  If your basement ever floods, you absolutely MUST call this company.  I discovered our basement had flooded, and was continuing to flood two days after Christmas, due to the failure of our sump pump, while we were getting days and days of rain.  My husband was out of town, and I panicked.  I had no idea who to call, so I went to Angie's List.  I looked for a company that had the best ratings and reviews, and fortunately, I found Paramount Restoration.  I called them, and they were here in an hour.  They were extremely professional, polite, and reassuring.  Robert was the gentleman who represented the company, explaining how everything would work, patiently answering all of my questions.  The team moved everything in my basement to the center of the room, took pictures and moisture readings for our homeowner's insurance company, removed the carpet and pad, and set up 16 industrial fans to start the drying process.  I also had a very expensive, large wool rug down on the floor, which was saturated, so they arranged for A-One Fabric Restoration to come pick up the rug and professionally clean it.  When Robert left my house that first day, he gave me his cell phone number, and told me that if anything happened (like a fuse were to blow) or if I had any concern, to call him, regardless of the time of day.  Robert came to our house every day to check on the equipment, and to take additional moisture readings.  Each day, he assured me that everything was headed in the right direction.  On the fourth day, Robert removed the fans, as everything was dry.  We did not lose any of our drywall or base trim.  Paramount Restoration took care of everything.  They treated our belongings and our concerns with respect, and they dealt directly with our insurance company.  They made a terrible event go as smoothly as it could have gone.  I hope we never have to call them again, but would highly recommend them to anyone who needs their services.
