9/10

In June 2013, I discovered a mold problem in a basement bedroom of my home. Canada's Restoration Services ranked very high through Homestars so I contacted them. I called the company and explained the situation and a technician arrived promptly as scheduled. After a thorough inspection, I hired the company and booked a date for service. July was an extremely busy time for this type of business due to numerous flooding’s in Ontario and other provinces and I was pleased that they were able to accommodate the job. They arrived on-time and all work was completed as previously described in the initial consultation. I would highly recommend this company for mold remediation services.

Approximate cost of services:
$1,600.00

In June 2013, I discovered a mold problem in a basement bedroom of my home. Puroclean ranked very high through Homestars so I called them first. I called the company and explained the situation and a technician arrived promptly as scheduled. It was explained to me that the company charges $175.00 for the initial inspection and that this would be applied against the final billing as a deposit after the work was completed. I wanted to hire the company and book a date for service. Neither customer service nor the technician called me back to book an appointment after leaving several messages. After waiting for two weeks and not getting a return call, it was clear that my business was not worthy of their time and I moved onto another company - their competition. I understand that July was an extremely busy time for this type of business due to numerous flooding’s in Ontario and other provinces but I was disappointed to think that my problem ranked less than anyone else just because it wasn’t being billed through an insurance company. I was recently billed (August 29th) the $175.00 for the inspection appointment. I’m appalled that Puroclean would bill me after the customer service, or lack thereof, that I received from their company. To this day, I have not heard back from the company - no staff ever followed up to enquire why I hadn’t hired the company or if the job had been completed. I also emailed the President of the company and customer service and have heard nothing back from either. Simply stated that is bad business and bad customer service. The company we did hire to do the mold remediation provided the initial inspection at no charge and booked the remediation date on the spot - that company is a 10. October 1, 2013 Since writing this review I was contacted by the Owner of Puroclean Milton, Ken McDermot. Mr. McDermot was gracious to acknowledge my point of view specific to the situation, explain the processes of his business and identified that this has not ever happened before. I appreciated him contacting me to validate my concerns and he was also kind enough to offer a refund based on this misunderstanding. Thank you.

Company Response

Hi Christine, Thanks for the feedback. When we provided the inspection report and estimate, we were under the impression that the work would be carried out by us. We did try to reach out to you and feel badly that somehow we missed each other. Thus we were under the impression you had hired someone else or were doing the work yourself. We are glad that your situation has indeed been resolved for you. We wish you the very best. Ken McDermot,
Owner, Puroclean Milton
