We had a fantastic experience with Rapid Response Restoration. Last fall, we experienced an…read moreemergency plumbing failure that lead to our finished basement floor being dug up to conduct the repairs. Our insurance made us whole on the plumbing work, but fought us on restoring our basement back to its previous finished state. This is where Rapid Response came in. After reaching out to Rapid Response and hearing our situation, Daryl reassured us this is their speciality and they will work with our insurance. From there, Rapid Response took this nightmare off our hands and communicated clearly through the entire process. Daryl was on the case and received approval from insurance to replace our entire floor. Seth and team worked quickly and did a fantastic job. Becky and her guys arrived promptly every day to complete the work, kept us informed of the status of our project at all times, and caused minimal impact to our daily life. We were even able to easily maintain our work schedules while the repair work happened. We could not be more grateful we found Rapid Response. They truly lived up to their name and made what would otherwise have been a bear of a project into something much more manageable. Now, our finished basement looks beautiful, and we'll absolutely think of Rapid Response in the future when we need other home improvement or repair work done. Thanks, Rapid Response Team!

When we had a sewer line back up into our den and my office in the Fall of 2025 it was a gross and…read moresmelly disaster. I did a little research and found Rapid Restoration through their numerous 5-star reviews on Yelp and other websites and reached out to Daryl and a few other companies to see what it would take to get our house back into shape. Right from the first moment on the phone I knew that Daryl and Rapid Restoration would be the company we would go with. He gave me a thorough education about the process and gave me helpful advice right from the first moment. His help over the phone was always clear and accurate. He set us on the right path immediately. Seth and his crew were in our house within 48 hours to do the mitigation and boy were they thorough. The floor was pulled up, the room was disinfected and dried. And all the while, Daryl and Seth made sure that we had the documentation and backup necessary to communicate with our homeowners insurance company. With the mitigation done, the crew came back a few weeks later to actually do the repairs and get our floors back to the condition they were in before. This was equally impressive. The workmanship was truly beautiful. Seth has a great eye for design and color. Everything matches and looks beautiful. Every transition and grade was thought through and installed with accuracy and quality. Overall, youhear about the nightmares of dealing with homeowners insurance. There was NONE OF THAT. The Rapid Restoration crew were so buttoned up and knowledgable that we had literally no conflict or pushback from our homeowners insurance company. If you've had a similar issue in your own home - don't even think about it. Just call Daryl and the Rapid Restoration crew. I recommend them WITHOUT RESERVATION.

I typically do not submit reviews online for anything. However, I must report my extreme…read moredisappointment with a recommended contractor from the 2025 Best Pick Report for Howard County Maryland. The company at issue is Clarksville Construction Services, Inc., 7380 Coca Cola Dr, Hanover, Maryland. It is listed under Handyman Services. The company business model is oriented toward profit while conveying a perception of quality. They claim that estimates are free and that a minimum of $500 per job is required. In reality, a salesman does a site visit to gather details and a proposal is provided. An open-ended contract is developed where the initial visit is done at substantial cost ($800 in my case) and change orders are then generated to do the real work required (at substantial additional cost). The salesman did not demonstrate any real knowledge of the construction industry and even used incorrect terminology. A two man crew was on site for 1 hour 15 minutes (at $800, that equates to a labor rate of $320 per hour). They needed a re-explanation of the issue and they did minimal, poor quality work and left the site with the intent to issue a change order for additional work. I have done many home improvement and construction projects and am knowledgable. The primary issue is a gap on outside exterior corners of the chimney which extends 16 feet above the roof and requires caulking. The proposed work included inspection of the chimney, chimney cap and caulking of flashing. A minor visual inspection of the chimney was conducted. The chimney cap was NOT inspected. Caulk was applied very poorly (see photo) on flashing at the base of the chimney only and NOT in the vertical gaps or at the cap where needed. The crew arrived with completely inadequate gallon jugs of water to perform a leak test. I convinced them to use my garden hose. No leak was detected. Instead of fixing the problem I requested, they did minimal peripheral work and tried to sell me a new roof which is not the issue and is not yet needed. I contacted the company in a non-threatening manner and requested a discount. They refused to offer even a minimal discount. The $800 cost is above the advertised $500 minimum cost and is substantial. However, I am not interested in engaging in arbitration and additional legal fees. I also have a neighbor who has had a similar experience.

Clarksville Construction is the WORST contractor I have ever worked with. From day one, the project…read morewas a complete mess. The quality of the work was terrible, filled with mistake after mistake. The job involved installing a new door and replacing wood with PVC panels around the bay windows and the chimney box -- a relatively simple project, one would think. However, it was anything but simple for Clarksville Construction. Find a better contractor and save yourself all these problems. If you know of any, please add them in the comments. Here is a list of some of the problems encountered. 1. On the first day, the crew did not bring a generator, which caused the circuit breaker to trip repeatedly. 2. On the second day, a drill was left on top of the chimney, which was very dangerous. My neighbors noticed it. They also commented that the crew's performance led them to decide not to use Clarksville Construction for their future projects. 3.I observed that a section of cracked 2x10 wood was used, despite my instructions to the crew not to use such materials. 4. Poorly hung plastic around the door allowed a significant amount of dust to enter the house. 5. Communication with the crew was very difficult. I can't imagine how anyone who doesn't speak any Spanish would manage. 6. The new door did not fit, necessitating the cutting of a section of the wall. 7. They failed to order a screen door and realized this 4 days into the job. 8. The crew worked on the door until almost 7 PM one evening, at which point I had to send them home. 9. There were dark marks on the entire chimney siding. 10. Scratches were noticed on the floor in the entryway. 11. There were marks on the interior wall next to the door. 12. A stain was found on the rug. 13. There was a 1.5-inch gap at the bottom of the chimney box. 14. The wrong screen door was ordered, delaying delivery by 2 more weeks. 15. Insulation was not properly installed under the window boxes, resulting in my furnace running continuously. The crew returned on February 6th, 2026, to address these issues. 16. OVER four and a half months have passed since this project was to be completed. Unbelievably poor and completely unacceptable! Zero stars.

They wasted our time with visit after visit for each subcontractor they hired, the worst example was their in-house plumber who wasted a week, decided he didn't feel like doing it, and they sent us over a sub to start from scratch. None of them communicate with each other. The owners had a personal crisis which we were very patient with only to find out that they had no idea how to delegate and nothing was being done. BES and their subs constantly miss appointments and make promises for milestones that they have no intention of keeping. STAY AWAY from this toxic company and anyone who associates with them. They should not be in business.
