Great company that will get the job done quickly at a fair price. I had issues with a leaking roof and window that caused significant insulation and drywall damage (not an insurance claim). They fixed everything quickly and it looks better than it did before the damage. They also came in below other quotes and will be my first call if I need anything in the future. read more

I never gave a time or date for the project but the reply was that they are "booked for this time". Honestly they were better off not responding at all. They did come back to apologize for their quick response (dismissal) but by then I had went with a different company. EDIT: Thanks for the clarification from the business manager. This review was written months ago as soon as it happened and has been sitting in my drafts. Regardless I still don't appreciate the response. read more

After a leak caused significant damage to our kitchen and floors, we worked with Ruach on the restoration. Jed was very knowledgeable and helpful about the insurance claim, and stood by as we went through multiple rounds of estimates to get the appropriate funds from our provider. Once the work began, everything was as promised, and on or ahead of schedule. Highly professional and reliable. Would recommend to any friend or family member. read more

Ruach Home Services once again came through when needed. Tony Harvey is always easy to communicate with and prioritizes safety. I've worked with him and his team on and off now for the past two years on various home improvement projects. The most recent projects included several repairs due to water intrusion issues in my guest bedroom and basement. They completed repairs on my bedroom subfloor and walls due to water damage from my chimney. In my basement, services included mold remediation, major drywall repair on all four walls, and replacing baseboards. Tony also confirmed a major safety issue with my electrical panel that other contractors ignored. His crew, with electrician Howard, went to work right away to replace the panel and coordinated safety inspections. This company continues to provide top notch service, I would highly recommend. read more

I got Jed's info from a work friend and I called him about renovating our guest bathroom. We live in an older (read: quirky) home and the bathroom is tiny/inconvenient for guests. He was able to reroute the plumbing to make the shower a bit bigger, installed all the tile, shiplap, and new fixtures. It turned out great! Jed came by most days to check in on progress/review any decisions that need to be made, and the team is super respectful -- always cleaning up at the end of each day, hauling away trash, etc. They take pride in their work and were excited to see my reaction every evening when they were cleaning up. Really happy where it ended up, and we're already scoping out a second project to insulate our attic. Highly recommend! read more

A couple of red flags here - nothing but 5 star reviews and I call a business number and someone answers with "Hello" instead of a business name; these should have tipped me off. Since I was desperate I ignored the flags and set up an appointment anyway. Jed did come over that afternoon, arriving later that the time he said he would be there. We chatted about the work I needed done to remediate the damage from a broken pipe and he took a few cursory measurements. He did tell me the ceiling couldn't be patched without us always seeing a tape line (I believe that is true) and he recommended scraping all the texture off the whole ceiling and repainting. He took about 50 pictures of my ceiling and promised an estimate by the weekend. This was last Wednesday and I haven't heard anything from Jed. If I have this much trouble when I'm trying to GIVE someone business, imagine what it will be like if there's something wrong with the work being done. I don't know where all these 5 star reviews came from but my experience has been less than stellar. read more

Ruach Home Services delivered outstanding customer service and quality craftsmanship. My only regret is not having Jed's contact information when the damage to my home first happened. He and his team are very professional and prompt. Jed sets expectations from the onset of the home restoration material options, installation timelines, and general costs associated with each decision. I highly recommend anyone who values quality at a reasonable price to reach out to Ruach services. read more

jed 's teams is great. we had a major unexpected accidental leak and he came right out to inspect. he had his team out the next day and they worked with urgency, expediency, and professionalism. i would definitely use these guys again!!! read more

Finding Ruach Home Services when we had water damage was literally a God-send for my family. We had a leak in our kitchen ceiling that was coming from the bathroom above. I called a few places and set up appointments and randomly decided to call and check out Ruach based on numerous good reviews I'd read here on Yelp. Jed answered the phone and after briefly explaining our issue, he said he would be by in 20 minutes to take a look. After looking at what we had going on, I already felt very good about using Ruach. We scheduled his crew to show up the following morning to get to work restoring and mitigating the mold that was found (evidently the leak had been going on for some time). To say that Jed and his team helped us through this process would be an understatement. We ended up having the entire bathroom remodeled and it is, by far, the nicest room in our house. From start to finish, Ruach took care of our family in a way that we have not experienced from any other company. We have been telling all our friends and family about the amazing experience we had and would highly recommend Ruach Home Services to anyone looking to do any repair or remodeling job in their home. read more

Tony and his crew did some plumbing and drywall repairs in my basement and they did a fantastic job. The first company that came out cut a hole in my ceiling, didn't find the leak, and left me with a leak AND a hole. Then we found Tony. The initial consultation was clear and informative. He gave good advice and guidance regarding insurance, and was upfront about the cost and scale of work. He was always very responsive, and his crew was on time, efficient, and professional. Tony was an absolute pleasure to work with. My basement looks amazing! I will definitely use Ruach Home Services in the future read more

Jed is great! He took care of some electrical work and an oddly-shaped wall build/drywall for me - high quality work done on the expected timeline, great communication, honest and responsive all around. I felt very comfortable and him, everything you want from a contractor. read more

We used Jed and team for our renovations of a new Condo my daughter purchased in Columbia. It needed a lot of work and we needed a reliable, trusted partner to complete all the work in our timeframe. Jed and team came through and the place is transformed. We are very happy with both his professionalism, work completed and the constant communication he provided. Since I came in from out of town and didn't have a car, Jed even went out of his way to pick me up to take me to pick out the tile and vinyl planks etc. They redid the ceilings from cement Popcorn to smooth, normal looking ceilings, installed vinyl plank flooring, tiled the bathroom and other miscellaneous things. We are very happy with his work and his professionalism. He did everything he said he would in the timeframe he quoted and gave us the confidence we need to ease our mind the renovations would be done correctly and on time! Thank you Jed! read more

Broad range of contracting skills including electronics, drywall, and restoration services. Tony replaced our drier vent with a safer vent tube, which involved removing and replacing the drywall and painting to make it look like new. It was a large job which he completed thoroughly with excellent craftsmanship. The price was fair for a large job. We will have him back to do install a kitchen shelf, help with dishwasher repairs, and install a new ceiling fan. read more

Ruach Home Services - Vent replaced - General Contractors Near Me

Tony is exceptional at his craft and I would highly recommend him. He's extremely knowledgeable and does a fantastic job of making sure you are educated thoroughly on the causes of your problem (in my case I had a category 3 sewage main line blockage) and solutions to remedy the issue. I do my research on a a lot of things, but as a new homeowner there are many more things that I don't know, than things I do. Working with someone with high integrity, who wants to get the job done right, but who also isn't trying to get you to spend more money than you need is important. That's what you get with Ruach. I'd highly recommend them home remediation (flood/ sewage clean up) and plumbing jobs and I'm even planning to use them for future home projects. read more

Ruach Home Services just completed a bathroom-closet remodel project for me. From the very start, Ruach has been wonderful to work with through the various stages of this construction process. Notably, from the speedy and detailed estimating phase through trouble-shooting random challenges uncovered from our previous lazy, amatuer builders. There has been efficient coordination of a variety of team members, all who display a diligent work ethic and specific skill sets, with high-quality craftmanship, attention to detail, clean and organized work spaces, and daily reliability. Mr. Harvey and his team were accommodating in adding on extra tasks that cropped up at an affordable price. They always left the project area clean and organized and were respectful when working in the common areas. Mr. Harvey was always available to answer questions along the way and was super speedy in researching possible solutions to unforeseen challenges that came about. I would highly recommend their services and am already saving up for their next project to improve my home. read more

I can't say enough good things about working with Tony. This was not an easy project, we had mold damage on the floor, wall and cabinets so everything needed to be ripped out, cleaned and replaced but Tony assured us we would have our kitchen back and he did an amazing job. He was very flexible and worked around our busy schedule, if we had questions he answered, any issues he came as soon as possible to check things out. The kitchen came out even better than we had hoped for! We can't thank Tony enough! We will definitely be going through Tony for any and all future projects! read more

After that, he added new drywall and installed a new exhaust fan. He finally painted on the wall. Tony did a fabulous job. read more

I didn't know what to expect or what I wanted when I started my bathroom project. I was wary of working with contractors due to bad experiences in the past, but Jed (Tony) and his team exceeded my expectations at every step. They took a small dingy bathroom and turned it into a peaceful oasis. Jed guided me through the process and made sure everything was to my satisfaction at the end. I was even able to work from home around his team during the project with minimal interference. I highly recommend Jed and his team, they are highly skilled and do amazing work. read more

Tony and Ruach Home Services were recommended to me by a neighbor for a bathroom repair and remodel after a leak. The work they did was fantastic, but what really stood out was the customer service. Tony helped us out every step of they way. His help with navigating the inevitable confrontation with the insurance company is absolutely what made the remodel possible. Communication was excellent, service fast and friendly, and small hall bathroom looks far better than it did when the home was new. Thanks Tony! read more

Ruach Home Services, and its owner, Tony Harvey, did an outstanding job remediating a long-neglected black mold problem in my basement and entry hall. I first hired him to take care of mold that had grown on the vaulted ceiling in my hallway. He and his very professional staff removed the drywall from the ceiling and other affected areas, treated the mold, then replaced the drywall and repainted disturbed areas. I could not tell there had ever been a problem. Although Tony counseled that I should have my basement checked for mold, I delayed. Later, after another basement flood, with the basement mold spreading, I called him again for help. He came immediately, drained the water, and assessed the mold situation, which was extreme. He and his staff took care of getting a dumpster, removing furniture and other stuff from my basement, and waiting for me to decide what to save and what to trash. In the end, he had to remove all of the drywall from the basement. When he saw what was behind the drywall, he advised me that I should consult a foundation and waterproofing expert due to unusual features of my foundation. Bottom line: I feel very lucky to have had Tony and Ruach tackle my problem. They are responsive, knowledgeable, professional, and fair. Big plus: Tony is a licensed contractor, and experienced in many construction fields (important to me), and all of his workers are extremely pleasant to work with. read more
