I hired Environmental CPR to clean up a shower water leak that went to a bedroom hardwood floor. At first the guy told me that it could cost up to $5k to clean and dry everything. They put plastic up and tore out the damaged areas and put drying machines for four days. They also cut part of the linoleum, but cut such a huge amount, which only needed to be cut half the size. Made the linoleum move, so now instead of just patching with tile-the whole floor has to be torn up!!!! They only charged me half the $5k, but when they sent me the amount to finish the hardwood floor, the linoleum floor, fix the shower pipes, shower head, replace the wall they tore out, they wanted over $20k......to put everything back the way it was. I couldn't believe it. The guy made me think it would be around $5k to do the whole job??!! Tear out and repair! Huh!!!
It's so upsetting to take advantage of people especially elderly women.
Beware of companies like this. I looked at the BBB to find a company that I could trust and dealt with water damage, etc. read more
