His price was significantly more reasonable than other quotes I got and he got the project done ahead of schedule. However, even more than that, he was clearly very thoughtful about the work he was doing, even going so far to pull a couple floorboards for us when he was giving an estimate to confirm the extent of the mastic. He's also just a really nice guy and a pleasure to work with.

This company is AWESOME!…read more I have recently found myself in a bit of a bind when my mom got screwed by a general contractor and I've since had to take over the project and find people for each part of the process. It all starts with demolition and the team from Cooper Environmental led by Mariano did a bang-up job. No pun intended but there was quite a bit of banging going on. I went with Cooper Environmental because they were the most communicative and they were very reasonably priced. They took away most of the old appliances (the fridge didn't fit), but they definitely hauled away all of the old cabinets, countertops, flooring, and backsplash. It took the team of three a few hours and I couldn't be any happier than I am with the work that these guys performed for a reasonable price. Will I ever demo anything again? I don't know, but if you do, hire these guys!

There was great follow up following the work, ensuring we knew what had been done and next steps that the prime contractor should take. We didn't exactly get a choice to use PW Stephens, as they were included as part of a larger group doing repairs. However, if I had a choice, they would be the only choice I'd make.

As with anybody coming into your home, it's your home. You need to pay attention. Other than that I would say you would do well with this company.

I forgot to mention at the very beginning. I spoke to a gentlemen named Victor, and after showing him another bid I had received. They not only met that bid at the same price they made special arrangements to start earlier like I needed. Couple things that happen caused us to retest, but there wasn't even any question complaint or argument that their company paid for the retest. They stand behind their work and that is such a rare quality in this day and age. Overall very polite, professional and wanting to do a good job to accommodate.

We recently moved in and just gotten our asbestos results and wanted to get to abatement ASAP…read more We had Marc who was extremely thorough and helped us understand the process. He was also very accessible as we were able to call and text him if we had any questions. There was an error on our invoice and he corrected it quickly. The abatement team came quickly and were able to remove drywall from our master bedroom, hallway, popcorn ceiling for 2 rooms, and guest bathroom. We were able to add on removal of old cabinets and a fan to ensure there was no asbestos left. Overall they did it very efficiently and safely which I appreciated. The one con I have to mention was when they removed the ceilings fan they misplaced some of the attachments needed to hook the ceiling fan up. We didn't move anything so when we went to assemble it the piece was missing and we needed to buy extra. A lot of the closets and screws they detached were also not organized so it's been difficult assembling our stuff again. They did the job fast and well but I would recommend they organize items they detached better. We still have a few spots to remove asbestos but would consider them again.

(See images) I also contracted a second licensed abatement company to clean up the asbestos Watkins left behind and safely dispose of the carpets/contaminated furniture. Here are some side-by-side comparisons of how the two companies approached asbestos containment. In Sept 2022, I submitted a claim against Watkins through the CA State Licensing Board, which was passed on to an investigator who then escalated the claim to arbitration through the CA State Licensing Board. The arbitration took place in May 2023, and the arbitrator ruled that Watkins must reimburse me for all the damages they caused, which totaled more than $20,000. Watkins paid this in July 2023, and I've finally been able to pay for the last of the work needed to move back into my home.

Go ahead and stop looking around now, because Swift is the best. I had a failed wax ring from my upstairs toilet leak water into my downstairs kitchen, and I got 6 different quotes for mold remediation and restoration. Nate from Swift Restoration was one of the only ones to not exaggerate the scope of what needed to be fixed, which put my mind at ease. Marco, the technician who demoed the water damaged parts of my kitchen, was extremely professional and did an amazing job securing the work area, even making sure that my cat did not escape as he was going in and out of the front door. I have vintage cabinets and light fixtures that I wanted to keep intact if possible, and Marco was able to do this no problem. I ended up staying with Swift for the restoration part of the job, and they did incredible work. The cabinets and ceiling look better than ever and like nothing happened. They were able to work with my budget without compromising on quality. Shoutout to Victor for an incredible job, this man is a construction master and he finished the restoration job faster than we anticipated while still doing solid work. Ian, the company owner, was available through the whole process to answer any questions I had and make sure that I was happy with the results. That is a level of customer service that is rare nowadays and I am grateful to everyone at the Swift team for taking the stress and worry out of my water damage restoration problem.
