We are happy to recommend Maxi Serve, Roman & Amy. When we had a burst pipe in the ceiling of our guestroom, Maxi Serve came right out and quickly performed emergency service after hours and on a weekend. Roman and his crew did remediation and expert repairs. We were very pleased with the quality workmanship and skill of the crew. They were professional and respected our home by sealing off the room to keep the dust contained. Roman made sure we were happy with all the repairs. We appreciated his help with dealing with our not so helpful insurance company. Highly recommend this company for your remodeling or home improvement needs. read more

Wish I could give zero stars. Terrible craftsmanship and even worse communication. They are completely unresponsive once they have your money, and the final result looks like a DIY project gone wrong. Unprofessional, unreliable, and a total waste of budget. read more

Total Flake! Don't ever use this company. Roman was referred by our plumber. He came out same day with a crew. Putting tape all over to mark the area needing to be fixed, he referred us to get tested by air labs which cost $1500 and then NEVER returned our calls and GHOSTED us. He caused more damage by making us wait. Don't ever use them, massive disappointment. read more

Oh! I see Maxi Serve has responded to my review! How lovely. Let's dive in, shall we? First of all, if you're looking at this page, please take a stroll through the negative reviews. You will see a pattern. Maxi Serve is consistently described as a terrible company, Roman (the owner) is consistently described as rude, ineffective, and incredibly unprofessional. And then the responses from Maxi Serve are all the same -- defensive, recalcitrant, and unrepentant. Never once does Maxi Serve take any responsibility for ANYTHING. And then, ask yourselves, potential customers, how that could possibly be? How could it possibly be that a company consistently has inspired incredibly poor reviews and EVERY SINGLE ONE of them are actually the customer's fault. You see where I'm going here? And now, Maxi Serve is even claiming "assault" -- which, I'm pretty sure is defamation. So I'll be very happy to contact my lawyer and look into possible litigation. This should be fun. :) UPDATE: THIS IS A RESPONSE TO MAXI SERVE'S LAST RESPONSE: God, they really can't stop, can they? Let's go through this one by one: Maxi Serve wrote: "Opportunity rise up again for more financial gain." I write: First of all, I'd be remiss if I didn't point out that this is a sentence fragment. If you're going to attack my character, please, at least do it in a grammatically correct way. ;) Maxi Serve wrote: "It was never stated that our technician was assaulted. Our statement clarified that you almost assaulted him by grabbing his phone, with a witness available to testify if necessary." I write: This is hilarious and an outright lie. When Maxi Serve last left my condo, they refused to answer my calls. Their employee was on the phone with them and I asked if I could speak to them since he was already on the phone. He then GAVE me his phone so I could speak to them. And luckily, my neighbor happened to be walking by at the time so she can speak directly to what happened. It's incredible that Maxi Serve would just outright lie like thisl Maxi Serve wrote: "Despite a few opportunistic customers like yourself who share similar concerns, we must defend the integrity of our company, our employees, and the quality of service we deliver." I write: Again, if you're reading this insane back and forth with this bizarre company, just consider that NO WHERE on this site do they take ANY responsibility for ANYTHING. And just ask yourself how that could possibly be. Maxi Serve wrote: "Regarding your earlier complaint about project timelines, please remember it was due to your decisions. You insisted on completing a section of your property before allowing us to proceed with water mitigation, mold remediation, and repairs in your third bedroom." I write: This is also hilarious. This job has taken over SIX MONTHS. And while yes, I requested that the company handle both leaks one after the other instead of simultaneously, that extended the project timeline by only about 3-4 weeks. Again, if you're reading this, look back on ANY of the poor reviews on this timeline and they ALL say that this company's timeliness is an issue. Don't take my word for it, take the many, many others who have had the exact same issue. Here's what happens with them, just to spell it out: They don't tell you when they are going to come, they often will schedule something and then never show up. Then, when they do, they leave without scheduling anything else. Repeated phone calls and texts to their office will do no good because they won't respond. Finally, after another 2 weeks have past they will make excuses about why they didn't respond and blame you, somehow for the delay. And this will go on... and on... and on. Maxi Serve Wrote: All delays are documented, and your HOA is well aware of the delays caused by you. I write: I love it when I get to provide receipts to this company's lies. It gives me a lot of pleasure. After I read Maxi Serve's response to my review, I contacted our HOA representative and she wrote this back: "I have not conveyed anything to Maxi-Serve." So they are lying about the HOA being "well aware of the delays caused by you." In fact, I've got emails going back to February with the HOA complaining about this company's terrible practices. Perhaps I should share some of them... :) Here's a quick one from May 16th to our HOA manager: "One thing is that Ramon, who has been doing the repairs, has been very slow to respond and get the work done. After each step in the process, I'm always having to chase him down, sending multiple voice mails and messages about the next step. The drywall was finally put in on Tuesday and I finally got him on the phone today to tell him he needed to come and paint, which he knew but had failed to schedule at all." Anyway, this has been really fun. I quite hope that they continue this insanity so everyone can see how sick this company is. read more

These guys overcharged me for at least $70k out of $140k job saying insurance will cover. When it didn't, Roman comes after with a threat of law suits. Never ever trust these guys, and go somewhere. Please do yourself a favor. This place is run by a thug. If you guys read the company response to other negative reviews of them, you will know how they have ready answers to be always right. They have all the excuses. If they want really resolve the problem, work with the number. Everything else is bs. read more

Roman and his team were amazing to work with. We were initially introduced since there was a backed up pipe and my apartment flooded. His team was responsive in arriving, fixing, and cleaning up the problem. They were clear with what next steps were and moving forward. Due to the flooding, I required repairs on my place, and went with Roman to perform the repairs. I needed my hardwood floors sanded down and restained, bathroom completely redone, and my dry wall redone. The work done was excellent, but it didn't go perfectly smoothly. There was some lack of communication and some delays. However, Roman made up with it with great customer service. He provided me a steep discount and made sure my apartment was perfect. He even made sure to fix up areas that weren't in our contract, like my A/C and replaced pieces of the hardwood that weren't covered under our agreement read more

Roman and the entire Maxi Serve team are absolutely the best. The quality and service that comes is second to none. This is my second time using Maxi Serve after experiencing a water leak in the kitchen. Maxi Serve helped deal with the insurance company and clearly set my expectations each step of the way. I will always use Maxi Serve and recommend them to others. I need to emphasize that this company serves to please, unlike other companies who are looking to get and get out. Roman requested I be 100% satisfied with the results and never gave up until everything was made alright!! read more

Maxiserve was great to work with, throughout the process of getting my house to be my home again. My condo suffered severe water damage and I had to relocate during the construction and I was in constant contact with Roman. He was always available, and if he wasn't, he contacted me within hours. I have worked with many contractors in my life, and his accessibility was very impressive. He kept me posted on what was happening and the next process that would be started, and even finished earlier than our agreed date! His work crew was very kind, neat, and reliable. The work entailed new flooring, baseboards, bathroom sink and vanity, and painting. Roman went out of his way to make sure I was completely satisfied with all of the work, and I truly feel Maxiserve went above and beyond what I expected. I would highly recommend Maxiserve to any of my neighbors and I am so appreciative of their excellent work and attention to details! read more

We did not have a good experience with Maxi Serve. Roman is a personable guy but he over promised and under delivered. Work was not done on a timely basis. Workmanship was shoddy although fixed when we complained. His version of events and ours were always in conflict. I would not use him again. read more

A rental that I manage unfortunately had a sewer backup resulting in a considerable amount of water damaged drywall & laminate flooring. A close friend referred me to Roman and he quickly responded by sending out a team to remediate the damages within minutes. He took care of the entire remediation & construction process from A-Z in an extremely professional manner. His pricing is very fair and straight forward and the quality of his work is excellent. I really couldn't ask for anymore. read more

I'd love to leave a note of appreciation for the experience I recently received during my emergency situation. Maxi Serve team was quick to respond, very creative and efficient in finding the ways to solve the issues that needed immediate attention and expert approach. Roman, in person, with help of Amy and their dedicated crew facilitated the whole process of mitigation with ease, high level of expertise, professionalism and utmost care. Thank you, Roman, Amy, and Maxi Serve team for your top notch service! read more

This company was recommended to me from a plumber I didn't know I called them out to my apt house because the city of glendale suggested I do so even though I didn't own the place because the property mangmt co didn't respond to my requests for help to clean up a growing cesspool under the place for a month. So I had to live w sewage smells for weeks. The crew came out right away and were very nice and competent, assessed the situation but then finally the management co came by and said their crew would take over I had expected a report from Maxi Serve of their findings anyway but never heard from them When I was finally able to speak with their front office the female "owner" gave me the rudest time on the phone and refused to give me an estimate or report , was repetitive, argumentative and talked over me, even though I needed a report because I needed it to get out of the lease after living in such a disgusting situation for so long. This "owner" has absolutely no people skills wasn't interested in accommodating me and though had great crewmen I would highly recommend against using them as I don't trust anyone who was so callus, cold, aggressive and dismissive. There are plenty of other companies out there who know what humility is. This isn't one of them. read more

Maxi Serve Restoration & Construction - General Contractors Near Me

I live on the first floor of a 3 story building. My upstairs neighbor's water heater started to leak which ruined my entire water heater closet! Thankfully he had insurance which covered the costs. I was able to choose my own contractor and decided, based on the positive Yelp reviews, to go with Maxi Serve. I am very happy to have found this company because they made the entire process super easy. They worked with my schedule and dealt with the insurance company directly. Maxi Serve is definitely there to serve you. The entire crew were nice, clean and reliable. They made sure to keep my carpet and floors protected as they worked. The owner, Roman, was great to work with and made sure everything was perfect. He dealt with the insurance company amazingly and was available by phone for updates at all times. Dealing with insurance companies over claims and trying to get money from them is not a pleasant task, however, Roman worked his magic and made it a smooth transaction. My water heater closet looks better than when I first moved in. Can't be any happier! I highly recommend Maxi Serve! read more

DO NOT USE THEIR SERVICE. Extremely unprofessional, lack of communication, and entirely insensitive to the client. I've had such a terrible experience with this company but the things that made me the most frustrated: 1. The workers are NEVER on time (always 1+ hour late) so we have to wait around for them if we need to leave the house...and sometimes they just straight up lie about when the workers would come. They said the workers would absolutely wouldn't work on weekends so we had friends over on Friday and Saturday. They show up first thing Saturday morning... 2. They had to block off 80% of our only 2 rooms in the apartment to do work. Didn't tell us this prior to showing up to start work even though someone had come to the apt to inspect it beforehand. Tried to charge us hundreds of dollars because Roman, the extremely rude manager, said we the workers couldn't start work since our things were still in the rooms they had to work on when we weren't even told to move them.... 3. Terrible communication and lack of understanding to the residents living in the apt they are working on. They are super vague about deadlines and basically give you no information on when the entire job would be finished. You can see how frustrating that would be when both me and my partner work from home, and BOTH of our office spaces in only 2 rooms in the house were blocked off. Ended up having to delay a month's work producitivity. 4. Had to sleep in the living room for days because they ran extremely loud machinery in both bedrooms (of course without notifying us prior) 5. The workers are NEVER on time (always 1+ hour late) so we have to wait around for them if we need to leave the house...and sometimes they just straight up lie about when the workers would come. They said the workers would absolutely wouldn't work on weekends so we had friends over on Friday and Saturday. They show up first thing Saturday morning... Overall the worst experience I've ever had with any service in general. Romans is the rudest most unprofessional guy I've ever met. He's super hard to deal with and won't listen to a work you say. On the phone he just tries to talk over you even when you are being reasonable and patient. Stay away from Maxiserve. read more

Do not use this company, Roman is a bully and caused so many problems for me, threatened my other Contractors with not having done a lead test even though he didn't pull a simple e-permit for his work. Then overcharged. I tried to work with him to stop the harrassment of my other workers, and challenged him about a simple charge of $2,000 not covered by insurance (he already received $60K from the insurance company) that would come out of my pocket and instead of saying $60K was enough (which was more than enough) he started bullying me for the $2,000. When I didnt want to pay it, he said he would "ruin me" and dig up everything about me and my business, so I paid him the $2,000 in fear of him. Be careful especially if you have other contractors, not in his control as he will bully them and threaten them too. If you even try to challenge a charge Roman will threaten and bully you with ruining your life (I have this in an email so Im not afraid of a slander charge) and Im still terrified of this guy "digging up everything about me and ruining me" his words, in writing this review but want to warn others. read more

We had water damage as a result of a clogged pipe. Roman, the owner, sent a plumber who got there in less than 30 minutes. The plumber quickly located the source and unclogged the pipe. The plumber was courteous and professional. I asked him lots of questions which he was happy to answer. Even before the plumber finished his work, the water damage remediation folks got there. They immediately assessed the damage, explained the implications to me and started fixing. Throughout the process (which took about a week) Roman was very responsive. He replied to all the concerns I had and kept me up to date on the progress. His team did an excellent job opening up the walls/floor and getting rid of the mold that they found. I was very happy from their work as well as the general experience of interacting with the company. I highly recommend their service. read more

We had extensive water water damage in our condo from laundry, guest bath, kitchen, connecting hallway and half the living area. Maxi Serve has to be without the slightest doubt, the absolute WORST Restoration company ever to exist! God help anyone using him for construction. Roman, the owner(?), has NO sense of urgency and has no idea how to communicate anything. He left us sitting in a Hotel room, with a dog, for 16 weeks for a job that should not have taken more than 6. His guys show up, or not, at about 11, go on an extended lunch, work till 4 and leave. They went 5 weeks doing NOTHING! Roman said that they were waiting for the mud to dry on the drywall when it hadn't been put up yet. He has no idea what progress, if there is any, has been made on his jobs. HE DOESN'T LOOK! He doesn't even communicate with his own guys. When they do show up, there might be two guys, never more. He demands a release of responsibility for moving the five pieces left in the living area, when they have already been moved twice by his guys It is really difficult to believe this guy even has a license. The workers, however, do an excellent job. They have to be the only reason he is not belly up because the quality of their work, when it happens, is top notch. Maxi Serve rated one, (1) star due to the fact there is not a negative rating. -4 would be applicable. read more

Mold?!?! I was devastated when I found mold in my home. I had no idea what to do or who to turn to. I literally wanted to move out of my home. I have two young kids and work full time. We had water damage in our bathroom and I freaked out. Maxi Serve to the rescue. I was referred to Maxi Serve and Roman took care of me. He was out to my home with his team within the week. Roman is competent and reliable. Don't think twice about contacting them for your water damage restoration needs. read more

Came back from vacation to a foul smell and realized my place was flooded. Made a few calls plumber showed up and stopped the leak and so did Maxi Serve. Maxi Serve Team made quick and precise assessments bought in fans and dehumidifier and removed all the padding and lifted the carpet to prevent any mold from forming. The Next Day Roman Teroganesyan himself came to do a full assessment and explain what needed to be done and I would need to relocate temporary in order for the team to fix the water damage. The Team did a great job storing and place my furniture back into my place. Roman was very knowledgeable and had open communication. All the repairs were done and all the walls were repainted. I'm thankful for the service they provided they did a fantastic job. I would recommend them and use them again(hopefully my place doesn't get flooded again). read more

Roman and his staff make take the stress out of stressful situations! Aside from their great workmanship, they meet the moment by keeping you informed every step of the way until the job is complete. Thanks for all that you do! read more

If you need water or mold mitigation I can say with absolute confidence to hire Maxi-Serve. (Would rate them 10 stars, if I could!) Had a burst pipe next to my tub that ran unchecked for two days, I was devastated, upset and freaked out at the extensive water damage. When that happens you need a company that will gallop to your rescue. That's Maxi-Serve. I know. Because, I used a different company first that my plumber recommended and they were incompetent. Who you choose to do your water/mold mitigation...matters. Greatly. Roman from Maxi-serve is a hero, he came out and redid the first companies sub standard work and the difference between working with these two companies was like night and day. Roman and Amy provide warm and caring customer service. They are professional, reliable and responsive and will take care of you and your home and give you way more than 100%. read more

I'm on the board of an HOA with 73 units. We've used Maxi Serve several times. They have always been professional, courteous and, above all, expert in their services. They've helped us in construction and mold remediation and have been quick to respond in emergencies. read more

Terrible customer service. DO NOT USE THIS BUSINESS! I spoke with Roman, who repeatedly addressed me as 'Bro', and hung up on me multiple times whilst I tried to understand the scheduling behind our services. DO NOT USE them, find another restoration service. Absolutely terrible experience. read more

Over the past three years our kitchen ceiling and walls were damaged twice by two separate leaks coming from our upstairs neighbor. We used Maxi Serve both times to properly dry out the damaged areas. Roman and Amy were straight forward and very good at communicating start to finish. The entire team was very professional and thorough, making sure to properly seal off the area before starting work and coming back multiple times to make sure all the wood in the ceiling was completely dry. I highly recommend them. read more

Very reliable and responsive. Used Maxi Serve for mold and water remediation as well as several plumbing services and am very happy with the outcome and the service. read more

Maxi Serve were very professional from the first day. They came out and assessed the mold problem. They sent out a mold expert who then discovered the asbestos as well. They worked diligently until all the mold was removed and gone permanently. They were always courteous and honest. read more

Overall, it went extremely well! I was recommended to them by my HOA, and they were attentive, patient with me (I had a surprise birthday party for me scheduled during my appraisal that they immediately rescheduled for me once I found out!), professional, FAST, and fantastic! Amy is so kind and patient, and I truly enjoyed communicating with her. Roman is professional and honest, which I truly appreciate. They even went above and beyond- patching and repainting a part of a ceiling in a room that wasn't part of the mold damage! They are the only company I'll call if I ever have any water damage in the future- thanks! read more

Terrible customer service. DO NOT USE THIS BUSINESS! Roman thinks he's dealing with a bunch of idiots that don't understand plumbing in order to substantiate his outrageous prices. Shop around unless money is not a concern. DO NOT USE them, find another restoration service. Absolutely terrible experience. read more

I first contacted Maxi Serve when there was an emergency flood in our condo building. When the owner, Roman arrived at my unit, he was prompt, knowledgeable and fast -- all while managing our entire condo building and another unit. Not only is Maxi Serve a water damage restoration company, Roman, the owner is a full blown contractor skilled in flooring, cabinetry... all sorts of restoration. He was very fair in pricing and always went the extra mile, even helping to pick out new vanities, flooring, tile, tub and toilet. I now have gorgeous new Pergo floors and a beautiful bathroom, all thanks to Roman. On top of that he is highly responsive. I don't think I ever called him when he didn't pick up the phone. I highly recommend Maxi Serve for all kinds of contracting. Thank you so much to all of you!!! This wouldn't have been possible without you! read more

We had discovered serious mold under our house when we had a plumber come out for some repairs we needed. Through referral I called Maxi Serve and they came out pretty quick, I would say maybe no more than 45 mins from the time I got off the phone. What I like about this company and the main reason for my review, it's not just about the excellent work that they did to have the mold removed but overall customer service. The crew that showed up for me came in with shoe covers (I wish more companies thought of that courtesy), they were very informative and efficient and it didn't end there, even the owner Roman showed up several times to make sure everything was up to par. Great Job Maxi Serve! Thanks again, will definitely recommend if ever needed. read more

We had a collapsed sewer pipe. The crew came at 1am and worked for hours, documented everything which allowed us to get full coverage for all the damage from our insurance company. They were professional, prompt, always communicated the steps, facilitated special tests and abatement & removal. I was impressed and felt supported during an I regency situation by Roman and his team. We highly recommend the company and are thankful we found them during our mini home crisis! read more

I am very grateful to Roman and his Maxi Serve team. Within hours of our main line sewer backing up Maxi Serve was at my door. Roman walked me through the process and immediately began working to make my home safe. Romans professionalism, expertise and sincerity have raised the bar for this industry. Maxi Serve's team is professional and take great pride in the finished product. Roman is also handling my remodel and he listens and understands what the client needs while paying special attention to even the smallest detail. I would, without hesitation, refer Maxi Serve to everyone and for any of my future remodel needs I will only call Maxi Serve. read more

Thank you Maxi Serve and it's professional, knowledgeable and great team. They also do construction and repairs which was a life saver once all water damage was mitigated in one of my buildings. It's great to know that you don't need to search left and right to get your property repaired after they perform mitigation services. Since last year used them 3 more times. Highly recommend them. Thank you Maxi Serve--you went above and beyond. read more

For months there was a foul smell in my home that I simply couldn't pinpoint. I called a hygienist out and they discovered mold within the wall between the master bedroom and my bathroom. They left me 3 recommendations for companies that can come clean this stuff up. The one I went with was Maxi Serve a nd I couldn't be happier. They came out, reviewed the report given by the hygienist, explained the remediation procedure to me in detail and got started. right away. Afterwards they recommended I have another test done that will let me know if all mold is gone or still present...and of course everything came back with flying colors. No mold. No smell. No problem! I would highly recommend Maxi Serve to anyone facing issues with mold. read more

My family and I are so grateful for Roman and his entire team! We had a pipe burst in the middle of the Covid pandemic that effected 6 major rooms/3 bathrooms of the house. Within a few days his company came in, safely moved all of our furniture and began to work. From dealing with our insurance internally to managing the new plumbing, electrical, and construction they are truly worth 5 stars. Our home is finally complete and every constructional detail looks beautiful. He really went above and beyond. Unlike other contractors, he visits the job site often and makes sure he communicates all your needs to his workers. Honest, professional, and most importantly was so enjoyable to work with. read more

I am extremely grateful for everything Roman and his team has done for my family! When we were uncertain with what was going on, Roman was always patient and available to answer any questions or concerns we had. He made the whole process smooth and quick! In addition, his team was very professional and worked tirelessly to get the job done in the best way possible. Highly recommend this business to everyone! read more

My family and I have never reached out to a contractor. Meeting and receiving help from Maxi Serve Restoration & Construction was the best thing that has ever happened to us. They are always there on time, help you when you have questions, and never move forward until you know or understand exactly what is going to be done on your property. As far as workmanship they just cannot be beaten and I would recommend them over any other construction company. The quality of work was beyond what we expected. Roman and his whole team were great to work with and very professional. They showed up on time, worked hard, cleaned up, and completed the projects quickly and as scheduled. Wonderful job, thank you! read more

Roman and Amy from Maxi serve honestly are one of the best companies I have worked with. We own a 7,000 square foot facility and they were able to give an excellent price and finished the job quickly. They are certified and go through every detail very carefully. Their work is tested, certified, and guaranteed. The have a full professional crew with all the right tools/equipment to execute the project in a professional and efficient manner. They are clean which is a big bonus since I my company builds retail stores. Roman will take care of you and look out for your best interests. Down to earth guy. A+ service. read more

My wife and I had just spent almost a year building our dream house. A few months after moving back in and enjoying the house we had flood damage on the entire first floor of our house. A pipe inside the wall had burst and flooded causing significant damage. We were very heart broken since we had invested all this time and money into our home. We wanted to have a professional to come out and take care of the mitigation services. After talking to a couple water damage restoration companies, Maxi-Serve completely stood out to us. Roman came out and explained how everything was going to work and what needs to be done. In the frustrated situation, he was able to provide ease and comfort by telling us that Maxi-Serve will take care of our problem. Not only did he live up to his promise, but he exceeded our expectations. The Maxi-Serve team and Roman truly are professionals and experts. One of the many things they did was they removed our entire kitchen cabinets with the countertops and reinstalled it. These kitchen cabinets were only a few months old. After they finished, it looked even better then before. Very clean and precise work. I highly recommend Maxi-Serve to anyone and everyone no matter how big or small your problem is. Roman and his team are all professionals. Great Team! Great Customer Service! Amazing results! read more
