Get matched with top dry rot, water or pest damage major repairers in Independence, MO

"What a great company and response. We had some water issues from the recent bad weather. Kevin came out and checked everything for moisture and mold. He was really helpful, even though he didn’t find anything. Would “highly” recommend Kevin and AdvantaClean????"

JD and his crew were fantastic! The estimate was competitive with other bidders and we felt the value of their services was very high. We had extensive wood rot damage around most of the windows in our house. JD and his crew were very detailed and careful as they removed the old windows, repaired the wood rot, and installed the new windows. The locations that were leaking before the window installation are leaking no more. Wood Rot Solutions also repaired rot on the exterior of our house, including trim and siding. Everything was caulked well and it was easy for the painters once they arrive. (Note: painting was not part of Wood Rot Solutions scope.) JD and his crew were very professional. They kept the interior of the house clean and even worked around our child's naptimes. We are VERY happy with our new windows.

"We used Foundation1 to completely rebuild 2 basement walls and push another one back up and support it. They did a great job and done it quickly and professionally. I do not live in the KC area and needed to find a contractor that could be counted on to be honest and stand behind their work. Foundation1 has fit that bill. The work I had done was a year and a half ago and the basement has stayed dry the whole time. Definitely would recommend!!"

"Dry Kansas City North was recommended to us by a plumber we had out after our basement flooded. A phone call was made and they showed up within the hour. Jason and his lead technician Jeremy were professional and polite and got to work immediately. They secured us storage and moved property that had not been effected by the flood out and also removed the damaged property and hauled it away. Once the area was free from property and water. They went to work on cutting out the affected drywall and removing it. Then they moved in there state of the art drying equipment until the basement was bone dry. I work nights and I felt comfortable enough with them being in the house and doing what they needed to do while I slept. They took a very difficult situation and handled it with the upmost care and professionalism. I would recommend this company to anyone in there time of need."

"He fixed it quickly. He also gave us some advice about how to fix some wall problems we are having in the same room.

"We had problems finding a company willing to do a small section of composite siding, and even fewer who were capable of fixing problems we knew would be underneath. We needed to repair a portion of the back of a 2-story house. SRS came promptly to give an estimate, and was happy to repair as much or as little as we wanted. We went with Hardie board for the majority of the repairs. We had to wait a while for the repairs to be done because they were busy and it kept raining, but that is understandable and Brian from SRS kept us informed of the ETA. Oscar was the crew leader, and he is great to work with - friendly and professional, and made sure to keep us informed of everything that was going on. The problems we expected to find under the siding were worse than we anticipated, which led to them needing to repair water damage to the framing. Oscar showed us the damage, and we gave approval for the additional work and materials. This additional amount was less than we expected for such important repairs. That extra work set them back, and the team rushed to get to a point where they could wrap everything up securely for the night because rain was in the forecast. The partly-resided house survived a half day of rain just fine. Their second workday was also slowed down by unexpected work, but they were here for 10 hours that day and finished up the project within the estimated two days. The crew was polite and helpful. They left the work area just as they found it. They even did some things that we didnt expect (painting areas outside of the scope of their repairs, additional trim work). The new siding and paint looks great! We will definitely go to them again when we do more siding.

"One thing Shawn arranges for is to have a lady come in and clean/dust everything after they are done with dry wall sanding and such. That was a nice bonus.  He also found a spectacular carpet cleaner guy to get out stains and wax tracked in on carpeting. Carpet still looks great!

Shawn has a helper named Mike, and Mike is a hard worker. Mike shows up on time, and works as long as he has to without complaining. Shawn does have sub contractors for dry wall and painting.  His painter (Melbin) does an awesome job, but some of the guys that help Melbin are rather sloppy, leaving paint in sinks and splatters on counters.  Shawn made sure it was all taken care of later on though.  Shawn's dry wall guy (Carlos) knows how to get the job done pretty well, but wasn't very conscientious about making sure surfaces were protected (like floors, carpets, etc) from the dry wall compound, and he dumped the waste down in the street sewer- a big "no-no."
  I agree with another reviewer that stated Shawn seems to have a lot of things suddenly "come up" and seems to have too many "irons in the fire." There were several times when Shawn didn't show up when he said he would. Sometimes we would be contacted as to why, other times not.  I think this is common among contractors, unfortunately. They seem to have a whole different concept of time.

Shawn finished the job within a week of our deadline. We had some unexpected add-ons that understandably lengthened the job. "

"We thought it was a major problem but Tony fixed the issue for a reasonable cost. Other bids were out of sight. We did not need the work other contractors suggested."

"UPDATE: Since the situation below happened, Veteran Construction took charge of the situation and explained that the situation does not reflect their business practice or company policy on engaging potential clients. Therefore, I have updated my rating to a C since it perhaps was a misunderstanding with the individual. However, I will still leave the review below since it did happen and I would hate for this to happen to anyone else. I truly hope that this was an isolated incident.

After the company?s response, I have updated my statement to show that this was a disagreement with one of their
employees rather than the company:
After every hail storm that we get in Central Indiana, we get a flood of Storm Chasers come through our subdivision giving us "free estimates" on any damages on our roof and vinyl siding. However, I had never had one of them call me a liar and a thief for not accepting their free inspection/estimate. One of the representatives from "Veteran Construction" stopped by, he mentioned that they were going to be working on our street and he would love to have someone drop by to give us a free inspection/estimate on any damages from the storm. I politely explained that we were all set and thanked him for stopping by. He then asked how come we didn?t need an estimate. I explained that our roof was brand new and I had done an inspections of the vinyl siding and I didn't think we needed any help at this time. He then said that he was going to leave me with "a million dollar question" and he pulled out a piece of paper from a huge stack of duplicates from his folder. The paper was a double-sided "million dollar" bill with Ronald Reagan on the front. When I flipped it, it basically asked me if I thought I was good enough to go to heaven and went on
to explain that lies (even white lies, fibs, or exaggeration) were considered lying. It went on to ask if I was a thief and followed up with an explanation of what it means to steal. Then it told me that I needed to repent or I could end up in prison for being a liar and a thief. Even worse for me, I would not go to heaven but rather h***. I can't believe that someone would think that this is the right way to do business. I had my roof changed 3 years ago and on my inspection of the siding I found a small hole on the vinyl that I can fix myself. Other representatives from different companies just left their business card and asked me to call them if I needed help, which I would gladly do. This individual insulted me, my religious beliefs, and my principles just because I declined an inspection. I hope this was an isolated incident and it won?t happen again. It is best to separate business with personal thoughts on certain individuals. As Veteran Construction explained, I hope that the appropriateness of the situation was discussed with the employee so they know the difference."
