If you look at my review history, you'll see that I usually write positive reviews. However,…read moreworking with Flood Response has been one of the most painful and inefficient experiences. We had a flood in our home in LaQuinta more than a year ago. We hired Flood Response to handle the clean up. They sold us on their experience working with insurance agencies. So we also hired them to handle the rebuild. THAT WAS A HORRIBLE MISTAKE! It's been more than 13 months and we are still not finished. While insurance delays are certainly to blame - this company did nothing but cause more headache. In January, I threatened to move the rebuild to another company. They promised to have the rebuild completed by Coachella (April). It's November now and our house is still not back together. The company has been completely incompetent all around. -- Unreliable - They changed our general contractor a few months into the project after he had done zero. They new one was equally awful. -- Non communicative - They promised to send us weekly update emails to inform us of progress - didn't happen. -- Lazy - They've had our personal belongings in storage for 13+ months now. Our insurance was slow on approving an repair inspection, but once it happened, Flood Response told them they had the wrong couch (they didn't). It's now been 4 months since that inspection and we still don't have a report on repair. They also sent the report to a completely different insurance claims company. -- Crooks - during the rebuild, one of our water heaters exploded. We had them quote the repair and it was 4x the price of another vendor. BEWARE! They are terrible with insurance. They might be find for remediating a flood. But DO NOT trust them with a rebuild.

I cannot say enough GREAT THINGS about this team! From the people on the phone to to technicians…read moredoing the work in my home to the billing people, EVERY SINGLE PERSON was fabulous. I had a nasty unattended/bio hazard cleanup to deal with and everyone was so kind and supportive and proactively professional. They took care of situation without trying to talk me into additional services and the cost was more than fair. The technicians were extremely professional - showing up on time, figuring out just what was needed and helping to make sure we were squared away on day one and staying with us for the next 2 days to make sure the issue was completely handled. They made a horrible situation better in everyway and I am eternally thankful.

Response time, scheduling, and customer service were outstanding, specifically calling out Cesar, Delia, and Dart.

Otherwise it was a flawless experience and I'm so glad Servpro did such a spectacular job!

I just want to take the time to write a review about Bud with Platinum Dry, because he truly…read morechanged everything for me. We had a major leak this past year that the owner neglected to address correctly. I expressed my concerns multiple times about moisture and possible mold, but I was dismissed. Months later, I became very sick and couldn't shake the feeling that something in the home was contributing to it. Out of desperation, we called Bud and he showed up the same day. He immediately confirmed an additional leak we didn't even know about, and found 100% moisture in the walls of my bedroom. The relief I felt finally getting answers was indescribable. That confirmation meant everything. When we had to leave that rental in an emergency and move into a new place, Bud came out again that very day to check the new home. He alleviated my fears and verified that the house was clean. Mold illness is real absolutely real and it can completely change your life. I needed to write this review because I'm beyond grateful for Bud's integrity, responsiveness, and the way he dropped everything to help when I truly needed it. I'm also incredibly thankful he validated what I already suspected, when people around me thought I was being dramatic or neurotic. I wasn't I was educated, researching, and listening to my body. And Bud confirmed all of it. I'm on the mend now, but if you suspect moisture or mold, please call this company. They are honest, knowledgeable, and genuinely care about the people they help.

In short: if you are in Palm Springs / the Coachella Valley area and reading this while having just…read moreexperienced a flood, forget any other "big name" flood response crew. You are not going to find a better team than this. Dan's team is exceptionally skilled, organized, respectful and most importantly FAST- and I wish I'd found them sooner! Full review: When our tenants called about a flood at our rental property in Palm Springs, I panicked and did what I thought was the "safe" move: I hired a big-name local flood response company with decent (but not amazing) reviews. Six days later, the house was somehow still damp. Progress felt slow, and even my insurance adjuster strongly suggested that I do my research when choosing the company to do the repairs once the house was actually dry. I knew I didn't want that first company doing the actual repairs. I turned to Yelp looking for someone who could move fast, work cleanly, and understand the insurance process; someone who could get the job done with attention to detail, given how much attention we'd put into our home initially, but somebody who could work super, super fast. I thought I'd message AVA Flood Restoration and just get a second opinion on how the drying was going. I was on my way out to dinner and Dan (the owner) said he could come over later that night. I was already impressed, but wanted to wait and see what he'd say. Dan came over right at 9pm as promised. He told me that for a house of our size it simply didn't have the right amount of dryers, and that the house should have already been dry given it had been six days. He told me he had a team ready to go that night if needed, but that either way, he could assure me he could work with speed and attention to detail, and had experience with other homes where design was a key element. I slept on it, and the next morning, fired the other company and hired Dan. He took over from the other company right away, brought in about double the number of dryers, and was candid that the prior team had cut corners. That transparency was a huge deal because at that point I just wanted the truth and a clear plan. He handled explaining what had happened to my insurance company so insurance could just pay his team directly rather than me having to act as a middleman. From there, the pace and organization were night and day. Beyond drying, Dan's foreman, Kody, led the rebuild and he's genuinely skilled. New flooring, drywall, electrical and plumbing repairs, cabinets, paint... the whole scope. The crew was also incredibly consistent: they were there every day between 7-8am, and if I had questions they took the time to explain what was happening and why. The #1 reason I'd recommend Dan is communication. I'm a millennial, communication is everything to me. Dan is truly next-level. He responds to everything, is always a phone call away day or night, and he texts frequent updates so you're never left wondering what's going on. A lot of contractors say they communicate well. Dan actually does. Three weeks later, our house was back together and our tenants were back in, honestly better than ever. They made a pretty awful experience as good as it could have been - an enormous thank you to all of you: Dan, Kody, Mike, Derek - while we hope we never have a flood again, if we ever do need a contractor for other work, we absolutely know who to call. By contrast, our neighbors up the street had a similar pipe burst a year prior, and it took them six months to get back to normal dealing with other slower contractors who just didn't prioritize them. If you're dealing with flood damage and need someone who will show up, follow through, and move with urgency, Dan and AVA Flood Restoration are the real deal.

I have never dealt with anything of this nature before . Turned to yelp called a plumber . ( should have called King's at that moment , however I didn't know) Plumber cleared clog , couple days later hour house started to smell. Come to find out the water was black water and worked into walls and carpet. Went back to help and Kings had good reviews . We called them. With-in a hour they were at our house . Juan was our original tech, ran test and determined that we did still have moisture in walls. Advised we needed to vacate house . Our insurance moved us into a hotel. Next day I met with Jared . Who explained the process. Let me be clear , when things are bad they are going to get worse before they get better. Jared explained they were going to have to cut our some drywall. Move cabinets . Run test. Ended up having to remove some tile and our shower too. Cause nasty water went everywhere . I was concerned what our insurance would or would not cover . So I asked Kings to please communicate with my insurance to make sure I would not get stuck with a bill for anything not covered . Terri and Jared were awesome they communicated the entire time. It's amazing that's company comes in and rips your house apart and you happy while they do it. After they were complete with there part , other contractors were brought in to put house back together again. What a process , hope I never have to do it again . However if it happens I know who my first call will be! Thanks again Kings!
