    We had issues with moisture and mold in our apartment due to water getting into failing caulk and…read moregrout lines. We contact multiple vendors to come and looks at the issue, but none were as thorough and experienced as Mark and his team. From the beginning to end, the experience has been stellar. Mark arrived to look at the issue promptly. He was able to identify the issue accurately and was honest about the necessary scope of the remediation work. (Other vendors suggest a smaller fix which ,in hindsight, would not have solved our issue in the long run and would require additonal work later on) Throughout the entire process, he constantly communicated the progress of the work and kept us update on the schedule, something that we appreciate since its the first time we have to deal with mold and water issues. Last but not least, Mark and his team take great care in carrying out the work and handling our belongings in the work area. If you need any restoration work done, I definitely recommend Quality Assurance Restoration.

    Fantastic work. Great value. Even better guys. Mark and his team did a phenomenal job…read more We discovered water puddling in our crawlspace right under where our furnace is. I contacted a few different people, but Mark was the first to be willing to make it out to us that same day. After checking out the damage, he put my mind at ease and gave us the rundown of his plan of running a few fans and dehumidifiers in our utility closest and in the crawlspace. I asked him a bunch of questions I had, and he answered each one with ease and helped me understand what was going on. In the end, Mark and his team set up the fans and dehumidifiers in the spaces and left them for a few days. We were considering getting new tiling and he recommended Jose from Neza Restoration & Repair. Jose and Fernando also did a really good job. What makes Mark stand out from the rest is his availability, clear communication, and just being a down to earth guy. I felt I could trust Mark, and may have overstepped when asking for advice outside of water damage, but was he willing in answering and helping me out. God forbid I have more water damage in my future, but if I do, Mark and his team are the first ones I'll contact. And I'll be referring them to every person I know seeking water damage help from now on.

    Would recommend Dan and his partner Steven. They were much more affordable than other companies,…read morehaving simple no-frills up-front pricing. Dan was quick to respond and was communicative with their arrival. They did a great job overall, my rugs and couch look much better. A couple of old stubborn stains are still slightly present but look much more faded, and the rest of the areas look wonderful. (I expected that some old stubborn stains may not go away and Dan was clear on this too up-front, so this was to be expected.) Both Dan and Steven were very friendly. Dan is obviously an expert in this area. He shared some information about the products they use and answered some of my questions. The only minor issue was that there's a couple water/soap smudges on the floor where some drips happened, but this will only take me 5 minutes to clean up. Overall would definitely recommend. A no-frills, easy, great value experience.

    They arrived immediately set to work quietly bringing their equipment in and getting all set to go…read more They had equipment to make sure they didn't blow circuits in our house. They cleaned the mattress thoroughly, explaining what they were doing along the way and finished doing a remarkable job of getting the stain out and have everything look pretty darn sparkling new. I would be happy to hire them again for this or any other cleaning type of work I may require. Thank you, thank you!

    2nd Chance Water Restoration - messy work

    2nd Chance Water Restoration

    I hired Second Chance (Patrick O'Connell) for fire-damage cleanup and rebuilding at my rental…read moreproperty, and the experience was extremely disappointing. I paid two deposits -- roughly $25,000 for cleanup and another $25,000 toward rebuilding. Before signing, I specifically asked whether the tenants' belongings would be included in the cost, and was told they would not be charged to me. I have this in writing. I was also told verbally that this would be handled as a full-service job since I live out of state and couldn't manage it myself. After the second payment, I was informed certain portions of the project -- including electrical work and the kitchen rebuild -- would not be handled after all. From there, the project became increasingly hard to manage and communication broke down. Despite what I was told, I was charged over $6,000 for work involving the tenants' belongings. Several other billed items also didn't match what I found on inspection: stains still on doors, windows that hadn't been cleaned, bathrooms that didn't appear cleaned, and painting that looked incomplete or poorly finished. I had to dispute multiple charges, including one for AC cleaning that was ultimately removed -- which raised real concerns for me about the accuracy of the billing overall. Beyond the direct costs, this situation led to lost rental income, an ongoing tenant situation, and repeated trips back to the property to sort things out. I also had an interaction with Patrick that I considered threatening, which I reported to law enforcement. I have documentation, photos, messages, and billing records supporting all of this. I'm sharing my experience so other property owners can do their own due diligence -- the sales process was far better than the actual execution, communication, and billing turned out to be. I wouldn't hire this company again, and I'd strongly recommend getting scope of work, pricing, and every charge confirmed in writing before paying anything.

    Stay away. Read the owners response to bad reviews (yelp or google) he argues with all customers…read more That says a lot. Professional companies do not do this even if they believe they're correct. When trashing drywall and materials as expected, they were not supposed to trash anything personal. When the trash bags were outside we found a trophy, old family photos, blankets, medals and more (some in photos). I don't know if I missed more, I hope not. Owner claims we are liars and did not look through bags. I attached camera proof of me looking through the trash because of this. Don't know why he would think this is a lie because I can prove I did. Company showed up announced last day to pickup machines, 2 hours after scheduled time. Owner claims we "screamed and called them names," during this interaction. We have cameras and this encounter on video. No voices were raised or names called. That is pure slander and untrue. Company would leave after 2 hours of work and say they need to return next day (more than once), after you've already taken the day off. I have filed a complaint with the BBB, owner responds, said I called him/his company names, yelled, was "abusive", that I messaged him on weekends, and much more. All of these things are slander, I was nothing but kind to them. Phone records, cameras, and photos prove I have never called this person on a weekend and his other claims are lies. Company does messy work, randomly will damage things (shown in photos). Mold inspector said he can tell his work was not properly contained, this is a health risk. He also said 8,316 dollars is ridiculous for what was done. I showed company owner black mold on baseboards prior to work (pictures show). It was left and my home has failed the 2nd (final) test. Owner had a problem with us keeping our animals locked away during work. We made sure we were home and told him many times to let us know when they need to enter that room with the animals for work, they failed to ever inform us when they want to enter the room and then blamed never getting to it on us. Company left our front and back door wide open for extended periods, as long as 3 hours sometimes, for anything to get in. Owner claims he knew the first air test would fail and I wasted my money. I have a message from him on 01/15 of him claiming otherwise, I will attach it below. After feeling the work was done (shown via text), an air test failed, and owner claimed he absolutely never thought the work was done. Another example of random unprofessional lies. After this test fail, owner said our bar NEEDS to be gone to pass. So I allowed him to rip it up, re clean basement and tested again. Test failed again, so the bar is gone for nothing. I hardly spoke to his employees besides an occasional thank you, and owner says one "quit because of me." Then he said he fired one over me. Thy makes 0 sense. Company unplugged our basement fridge and we didn't notice for days. I asked them to please leave original doors and frames, they ripped every single frame up anyway. I would've allowed them to if they told me they needed to. Owner said we had a pipe leak. Within 24 hours I had a plumber out who fixed it. Later on owner claimed we "had a bathroom flooding the basement and argued with him about it," this is an example of the owners slander. I can prove I had a plumber there asap and never argued so I don't understand the random lies. This review is to warn.
