The Power Dry team is very professional, knowledgeable and seem to be good people. However, the way they compartmentalize their service makes it very difficult to really get a sense of how much you are going to spend as each step is a new escalation.
The particular step that I felt was unfair was concerning mold. In one room they wanted to do mold mitigation, but no one could show me where any mold was, and no one had done any testing yet. Eventually they just did a mitigation and that conversation ended.
The second place where there was some visible mold I was told that the testing indicated the level of mold was elevated and was concerning. I trusted his evaluation but did say I wanted to see the report anyway. He said he would send it when it was available--which ended up being after the mitigation was complete. The report actually said it was only barely elevated. The younger guy doing the work told us he couldn't hardly see any mold other than what was initially visible.
I might not understand everything about mold but I do believe I was overcharged and mislead about the actual level of need. And they charged me $4000 for this and $600 for the testing... plus $3000 for the air drying, and likely $3000 for the reconstruction.
As well as, no one explained to me in the beginning that the service was so compartmentalized. So I pay for the drying. I pay for the mold. And I pay for them to come back and reconstruct the bathroom they tore apart. Yet, they don't come back and move all the garage items back where they went, after they moved it for mold mitigation.
I didn't leave this commercial exchange feeling very good about what happened even as they were nice guys. I don't think they are a bad company but I say be super wary and make sure they tell you about all the pricing that will come, and get second opinions. This was just disappointing. read more
