Get matched with top dry rot, water or pest damage major repairers in New Paltz, NY

"As a realtor, I found Rich from Expedient Environmental Solutions while searching for a client who needed mold remediation. He and his crew did an excellent job at a fair price. They finished on time and left the home clean. So, when I was looking personally to have basement waterproofing (interior french drains and sump pump) along with radon mitigation, I received 3 quotes, of which theirs was the most comprehensive plan, and again not the highest quote overall. They finished the work ahead of schedule by bringing four workers the second day, were respectful throughout and left the area reasonably clean. I'm confident that my days (and nights!) with the shopvac and flooded basement are finally over, and grateful they stand behind their work for a full year. Good contractors are hard to find. Glad I found them. Thanks and I highly recommend!"

"tThe crew arrived on time and completed the work as scheduled. The job appears to be very professional. They spent time with us afterwards to explain what they found and how it was rectified. Since the issue was intermittent leaks we do not have absolute proof that the the issues has been fixed but have had no issues since the repair was done.

We needed a painting company that could paint the walls in the common living areas in our raised ranch home, PLUS repair a crack in the ceiling AND paint the ceiling, adding texture to the repair so it blended nicely with the texture on the rest of the ceiling. Alberto came in and did a quick assessment and gave us a very competitive price. So we hired him.

We are very impressed with Alberto and highly recommend them. The ceiling repair blends beautifully and the paint job on walls and ceiling is gorgeous. Alberto and his team are efficient, tidy and punctual and we do recommend them. We will definitely hire them again!

"We live in a single family home in Poughkeepsie, NY that received water damage to the family room, kitchen area, finished basement, crawl space, and sump pump room of our room. We were referred to First Call from our realtor who had very happy clients who had hired them in the past. Through our whole water damaged experience, the best call we ever made was to First Call Restoration. First Call is a family-owned company who knows how important it is to due right by their clients and do so with honesty, respect, and professionalism. They actually care about the welfare of their customers and are diligent in giving them peace of mind during a very traumatic situation. Their entire team from Janice and the answering service team to Mike and his field team are friendly, empathetic, and honest. First Call worked directly with our insurance company to get an agreed scope of work and always made us feel like a priority. Janice explained the entire process and Mike even educated us on how mold grows and how to understand the moisture readings during his assessment of our home. They took out only the wet and damaged parts of the home and worked around saving anything we can reuse or reinstall such as drop ceiling panels that were not damaged from water in our finished basement. They kept everything neat and organized and cleaned up very well during and after the demolition process. We are very satisfied with the mitigation services that they provided to our water damaged home. Even though we are still fighting to settle with our insurance company and are dealing with that stress, we feel completely at ease to know that the work that First Call did left the damaged areas of our home clean, dried of any moisture, and mold free. When the weather kept fluctuating between cold and warm temperatures (our home still doesn't have heat and water), we noticed condensation in our house like it was sweating. It was easy to pick up the phone and call Janice and the rest of the office team and heed their advice on how to relieve the moisture. Mike even came to the house to read the moisture and humidity levels and make sure everything was all right and put our minds at ease. With full confidence and no reservations, we can encourage and recommend anyone who received damage to their home to make their first call be to First Call Restoration."

"Did a great job cleaning my house"

"John took care of a variety of jobs , which included putting a lock in a door to repairing water marks on the ceiling caused by freeze/ thaw own the roof above."

"They worked very hard to find the source of the problem. Fixed the damage and did not make the issue bigger than needed. The cost was fare and the work was done quickly. The owner was such a nice guy."

"Handy Andy installed a new window air conditioner unit in my grandmothers house. She lives far from me so I was not able to do or supervise this work myself. I called and Tom came out and gave me an estimate. He also attempted to help me get the new air conditioner purchased at a local store so I would not have to pay shipping. This did not work out so I had to order the unit and he came back to install it. Overall things went a little slower than I would have liked but he got the job done. He would get an A except for his professionalism. He talked to much about his personal problems with my grandmother (which she did not like). I think he was just making small talk, but this was not necessary. Also, it would be better if he would be able to accept credit cards so that the transaction would go smoother."

"We needed a roof replaced on a relatively simple structure that is a summer home. We have had it for 25 years and have never had it re-shingled.There were complications in that the current roof had 3 layers of shingles ( not a good situation and a significant issue to strip).
Another issue we encountered was that another contractor had built a porch on the front of the house that included a shed roof that overlapped the roof of the original house. He had done a very poor job in that he laid the roof of the porch directly on top of the shingles of the existing structure. This was a significant shortcut that over time caused the porch roof to leak. There were also flashing issues that caused the porch roof to leak in different areas.
Ken is a very knowledgeable guy who  was able to identify all of the structural issues that were causing us problems and fixed them at no additional costs. He went the extra mile and lifted the rafters of the roof and removed the shingles beneath them to fix the leaking issue. He also identified a problem that the porch rafters where not sitting on the rafters of the original structure and did his best to reinforce them so that a significant snowfall will not create problems for us down the road. 
He removed the soffit on the porch that was damaged by the flashing issue and replaced the plywood. In the end he even painted the entire soffiit - again at no additional charge.
We were not there there to watch the progress since the house was shut down for the summer. We met with Ken periodically during the project and  we were happy that the job was completed in a timely and efficient manner.
His original estimate assumed that the wood beneath the shingles needed to be replaced.When he removed the shingles and noticed that the roof was in tact he was quick to notify me that the additional work was not required. This led to a significant cost savings.
One event in this process worth noting is that we had asked for an estimate to do the roof on an additional structure and decided that we could wait to have this work done. At one point Ken called me and told me that his workers had misunderstood and began stripping the shingles from this structure by accident. He quickly offered to fix the issue by replacing the roof with a comparable shingle at no additional cost to us. I do not view this incident as an issue as he offered a solution that would have left us whole.
Ken was a pleasure to work with and I would be happy to recommend him to anyone in the area that is looking for a contractor. I had contacted two contractors for the job before choosing Ken. One had provided an estimate well above the price that Ken had provided. I get the sense that he would not have addressed all of the issues that Ken had and he had no where near the enthusiasm that Ken brought to this project. The second contractor provided an estimate that was comparable but his estimate was not provided in a timely fashion. Again I do not feel as though they would be as enthusiastic as Ken Walsh and Sons.
I would recommend this contractor and I will not hesitate to use him again when the need arises.

"He was very nice to talk with and repaired our washing machine. He even helped sweep the water out."
