No one wants…read moreto remove an old oil tank, but they made the process palatable even with needed remediation. They were honest, took time explaining the process, answered all of my questions and addressed all of my concerns. Bernie and the crew were prompt, knowledgeable and left the property clean and neat! I feel fortunate to have had this company recommended to me and happy to do the same!

One-of-a-kind: I recently decided to sell my home for financial reasons. During the inspection…read moreprocess, the inspector discovered a 550-gallon oil tank. I, unfortunately, did not understand the gravity of the issue until performing a simple Google search and quickly read one horror story after the other. Being a thorough person, I made a long list of Oil Tank removal companies and began calling them one by one. Each company I called was worse than the previous one, and none of them gave me the comfort level I was looking for to move forward. Then I reached Petro Jersey Industries. From the second Chuck Parkinson answered the phone, I knew I had the right guy. From his extreme professionalism and in-depth knowledge of the industry to his easygoing manner and relaxed demeanor, he is a master of his trade and very pleasant to work with. It literally felt like we were being represented by a member of the family. Moreover, he got the job done within a week and a half of calling him, and the closing still occurred without an issue. This is even more notable given the tight timeline we were on and the very hesitant home buyer that we were dealing with. Looking at the front of my home after we were serviced, you would never know anything happened. To that end, without question, I recommend Chuck and Petro Jersey Industries without any reservation and would definitely work with them again in the future!

I found Kevin on a Google search. Even though he is basically on the other side of NJ, he was…read morewilling to come out and do a test of our air as we just got done with having our asbestos removed. He was easy to contact via email, quoted a reasonable price, and we were able to set an appointment the next day. He arrived on time and was very professional throughout. He explained how his test was even more thorough than the abatement's company's test, as his actually would specifically ID asbestos fibers (vs a general fiber test the other company did). You can tell he knows what he is talking about. The test took two hours and I was able to work while Kevin filled out paperwork in his car. He contacted me the next day with the test results, and also sent me a certificate from the lab and his summary showing the air was clean. Note that Kevin only does the air testing (not the removal) and I used him as a second opinion to ensure the air was clean as asbestos is nothing to mess with! I would definitely recommend his company to anyone wanting to test their environment post abatement.

I wish I could give Randy more than 5 stars…read more BEFORE: (Contact, Initial Visit, Signing) Contact: Randy was easy to get on the phone. It went directly to him and I liked that I was able to talk to him directly. We were able to schedule a visit for that same week. Initial Visit: Randy was right on time, which is rare and surprising haha. As soon as he walked into our basement he was able to access everything. You can tell he knows what he is talking about, and it's to the level that you trust what he is saying. Plus, Randy is not a sales guy. Even though it's his business, he never pushed or tried to sell me anything. He just stuck to the situation at hand and what problems existed, as well as what was not an issue too, also rare. Usually companies make everything an issue in order to make more business. Randy doesn't do that. There were things we were concerned with that he told us were not an issue and we didn't need to worry. It felt like an honest and kind person, just trying to help us out. Also, although you can tell he is an expert in his field, he doesn't try to tell you more than you want to know. I personally like to know all the details because I like learning and Randy was completely open to describing everything to me and was patient. I can tell from our interactions that for people who don't want to hear the details, he will spare you, but for those people who want to know the ins and outs, he will gladly share. Signing: This part was very easy and Randy answered any questions we had. Scheduling was easy too and he worked around our schedules. DURING: (Arrival, During Work) Arrival: Again, they were ON TIME, which just amazes me haha. They were very quick with their set up and courteous to our home and furniture and draped everything. They set up their equipment in our garage. I actually didn't know we'd be using that side of the house for entry and so my garage had items in the middle of it. I remember going back in the house to tell my family and when I came back all the things had already been cleared and stacked neatly to the side. I was shocked at how neat and quickly it was put away. (and thankful!) haha During: They were really courteous and Randy would come to give me updates. This is probably because I'm a curious person, so my guess is he was being kind to my curiosity. I read online though, that the best consideration is to stay out of the way during construction and not ask them questions. So I tried to leave them be haha but I would look every once in awhile. But for other people who don't care, you don't need to be there or do anything. The team takes care of everything all on their own. Surprisingly, I actually took a nap later on. I normally wouldn't nap with strangers in the house, but I felt completely safe doing so. As for time/length of work, Randy gave me a time frame of how long it would take and they finished everything in under that time by a couple of hours! Amazing. Our basement went from a wreck to a super basement before dinnertime! AFTER: (Post-Work, Value, Feelings after completion) Post-Work : The work done was exactly as discussed. Randy was great at showing and describing everything. I was impressed and really happy with the outcome. When they left, they left it clean. I think my garage was cleaner than when they came. Also, I had left a 50 ft ext cord near the stairs. After they left I noticed someone had neatly wrapped and tied it for me. This is so sweet because they didn't have to do that for us. Value: Worth every penny. Randy's cost was literally a fraction of the cost of other companies. Other companies are very "sales" like and will push you. Randy never pressured or pushed me. He just gave me all the information so I could choose on my own. And honestly, looking back, I would pay more for Randy's work, than going to another company and paying less, although I don't even know if another company would come under his cost. My neighbors actually came to ask questions and they were quoted prices that were double the amount! Hearing this confirmed yet again, that we made the right choice to go with Randy. After: My family found that we are HAPPIER with our house now. I didn't expect that. But we just love our house more. Before leaving, Randy also mentioned the smell of the house would change. I didn't ask for clarification but my family has noticed it. It just smells, very FRESH and CLEAN. Before it smelled very plain, maybe even slightly dusty? I never would have known that, but it's only now after the work, that I can tell and make that comparison. BOTTOM LINE: It's rare to find companies that make the entire process (before, during, after) painless and pleasurable. The worst is to regret after you have paid for something. So I make sure to point out the really good/bad places, to help others avoid that. So yes, if you choose Randy, you'll be happy and will have no regrets! Thanks again for everything MMRG!

He was great and so nice and explained everything in so much detail! I don't have the report yet since it was just done last night but just wanted to let his team know he was great!

Qualified Tank Services removed the tank and because it was corroded, wanted to do $18000 of remediation--without any soil testing or testing of any kind at the time of the removal! QTS wanted to dig out 25 TONS of soil and put in a bedrock well for water testing and they filed a NJ DEP case saying there was contamination--again without any testing. We contacted Renova to do soil testing and they were able to come out the next week. The soil tests came out great, in other words--no contamination! They compiled a thorough report which we sent to the DEP. The case was closed and we were able to proceed with the sale of our home. Renova is an ethical company and I highly recommend them.

Our home inspector, Ray, was integral to us making an informed decision before taking the leap into home ownership. Ray was prompt and easy to get in contact with; he was always accessible via text or email. During the inspection, Ray did a thorough visual inspection and offered tips and useful information regarding what he saw. Our particular home inspection lasted about 2 hours and included a test for radon, mold, and oil sweep. We received our extensive inspection report within 24-48 hours of completing the inspection (radon and mold test results took roughly a week since the samples needed to be sent to the lab). We (and our attorney) were very glad that we were provided with such an in-depth report as we contemplated next steps. Ray is a licensed P.E. and his structural expertise was much appreciated. Thank you so much Ray for being a part of this process with us.
