Fantastic from start to finish! Nathan is a great communicator who really helped me when I was in a pinch. I wanted a third party to perform a mold test and he was able to fit us in quickly and at a better price than multiple competitors!! The testing was professional and thorough, the results were received when we were told they would be, and the report was detailed. Helped provide some information on how to communicate with insurance as well! Just can’t say enough good things about Nathan and RCR. HIGHLY recommended!!!

We called RCR Environmental in Winchester after a bad solar panel installation caused a roof leak and mold to spread across the ceiling and adjacent wall. From the first visit, everyone was knowledgeable, professional, and very friendly. They performed a thorough mold inspection and clearly explained what was happening and why it had developed. We appreciated their honest recommendations for mold remediation instead of pushing unnecessary work. They handled the remediation carefully and kept us updated throughout the process. After that, they completed antimicrobial treatment and made sure the affected areas were properly addressed. The drywall repair blended well with the rest of the room and helped bring everything back to normal. We would definitely call RCR Environmental again and recommend them to anyone dealing with mold issues.

Response from the owner · 2 months ago

Aaron, thank you for sharing such a detailed review. We're glad our team could identify the mold after the roof leak, explain the process clearly, complete the remediation and antimicrobial treatment carefully, and restore the drywall. We appreciate your trust and recommendation.
