Residential Testimonials

Water Damage

“In our time of crisis it was so reassuring to have your company work so professionally and efficiently to ease the stress. The work that has been done in our house is outstanding. We could not have asked for better quality service. The personal interest you took throughout the situation was also greatly appreciated. Thank you so much for being there for us” Leslie F., Fort St. John, British Columbia

“They were very courteous and always treated me with respect. Told me when they would come to work and asked if it was OK with me. Brian C. was very professional in dealing with the adjusting company. Thank you for your kindness.”  Marion L., Grande Prairie, Alberta

“In such unfortunate events our time with FirstOnSite was very positive. Bong and Jeffrey were awesome, they were so respectful of our family’s needs during their time in Peace River. Thank you so very much.” Peace River, Alberta

“My husband and I were both pleased and appreciative of how quickly the repairs to the bathroom floor and hall ceiling were completed. This was accomplished with a minimal amount of disruption to our busy household. I would gladly recommend this company to my friends and colleagues finding themselves in a like situation.” Nancy, Moncton, New Brunswick

“This company has done an excellent job of cleaning up and restoring. The staff have been excellent and most co-operative. They are real professionals and very business-like in all respects. Both my wife and I would have no hesitations in recommending them. We were most appreciative of their very prompt response to our water problem in our basement. Thank you.” Ian, Bay Verte, New Brunswick

“I am just writing to let you know how pleased I am with the work that was done. Your men were excellent workers and did a beautiful cleanup; I didn’t have to do a thing and the job is breathtaking.” Marlene G., Dartmouth, Nova Scotia

“I recently had a flood in my home and was in a total panic when I called the insurance company after hours. The emergency insurance adjuster told me he would call someone at FirstOnSite and that person turned out to be your employee Paul N.
This letter is written with the intent to commend your employees whom worked throughout my initial cleanup, move in/out and restoration and then the final walk-through.
This was my first experience having to deal with an insurance claim and a bit of a disaster and I would like you to know that out of a bad situation with the help of all your employees but specifically Paul made the situation more bearable.
From the first moment I met Paul he was in control of the situation and gave me the feeling #1 that he knew what he was doing and he had the confidence to make me feel at ease that everything would be taken care of. #2, throughout the process I was able to email or call and speak directly with Paul therefore answering all my questions and concerns or finding out the answers and relaying that to me in a timely manner. This was important to me as I am in the business of customer service and value a great response time and ease and availability of communication.
I’m sure you already know, but I would like to tell you that I feel that Paul is a great asset to you company. He makes FirstOnSite shine and represents your company in a positive, helpful, results-oriented manner. Thanks Paul as I’ve told you during the past 3 months, “you’re awesome!” Audrey P., Abbotsford, British Columbia

Fire Damage

I am extremely impressed with all the help I have received from ALL the staff at FirstOnSite. They made my life a lot easier and everyone was very good and easy to work with.
It started 2 days after my fire, I went to my home and the ladies were there packing my belongings into boxes. I asked what I could do to help and  they told me I did not have to stay they would look after it all. This was a big relief. So after all was completed and ready to move back in well the unpacking was so impressive and a treat. I could tell that each item was handled with care. My clothes were also phenomenal, pressed and packed so well.
The four guys they sent to move my things were wonderful, funny, courteous and polite.
When I called the office, the messages were passed on and I ways was greeted by polite people. Joel in the contents department was always so helpful and always took care of my needs and he would show up in no time at all when I needed him.
I am so impressed with everyone from FirstOnSite and would recommend them to everyone.” Mary Jane M.

“We recently had the misfortune of a small fire in our home. I would like to thank and at the same time compliment the guys from your company who did the work for us. Their work was excellent and never once did I see an area not cleaned up. I especially would like to compliment the guy that did the wallpapering. He did a lovely job and I am more than pleased. Once again thanks for a job well done.” Jo-Ann M., Westphal, Nova Scotia

“We would like to thank you for your superb efforts in putting our home back together after the fire. You were all so helpful and even went a long way to help us keep our sanity. The workmanship is superb!” Danielle and Mathew B.

Mould Remediation

“Words truly cannot express how grateful Tony and I are to you (Dale) and Jeff and everyone who worked in our basement. The fact that you cared about our children’s health is so touching and will never be forgotten. The service we received from all of your staff was awesome and we will guarantee you guys to everyone we know. We are thrilled to tell you that our daughter is 95% better and happier ever since you guys were here. She no longer needs an antihistamine daily! We also see a huge improvement in our son’s skin too!” Jackie and Tony, Wellington, Prince Edward Island

“On behalf of my family, I would like to thank you and your team especially Scott and Leonard for taking such good care of us during our recent mildew mess and reconstruction. We were very impressed with your consideration, patience and professionalism, and the guys were always so friendly and kind that it made this unpleasant experience bearable. Scott and Leonard listened to our concerns and whenever possible they did everything that they could to meet our expectations and solve any problems as they came up. Even with the delays caused by Kent they kept coming back with a smile and always tried everything they could to get the mess over with as quickly as possible. After it was all over Don came in to clean the carpets and as we have come to expect from your team did above and beyond what we could have expected. The carpets look like new! You can be assured that we will recommend you whenever we have the opportunity in the future. We wish you and your team all the best. Thank you all from the bottom of our hearts for our beautiful ‘new and improved’ (and mildew-free) home. With sincere gratitude from us all” Dan, Nancy and Alex, Riverview, New Brunswick

Vandalism Damage

“We wish to extend our sincere thank you to the employees; Rufus and Steve H. were compassionate and extremely helpful. An invasion and break-and-enter can be very upsetting and unsettling to people and the services given to us certainly made life easier during such a trying time. Once again, thank you.”  Catherine and Michael C., Dartmouth, Nova Scotia

Renovation

“The work on our basement is now complete and at this time, I’d like to express my appreciation for your efforts. When Ellen and I decided to go ahead and have the work done, we were a little apprehensive about all the details involved. However, after our initial meeting with you, our minds were at ease not only because of the way you presented yourself, but also because of the way you approached the job. What appealed to use the most was doing the estimating in different stages. This gave use us a clear picture of what costs we would be getting into at each step of the way.
And now that the job is done, we can only say that we’re very pleased with the work that you and Brian did. Your commitment and craftsmanship is second to none and Brian’s eye for detail and his suggestions were a definite asset. Should you have any future customers wanting to get a look at the kind of work you do, you’re more than welcome to bring them by the house for a viewing. Thanks again for the excellent work and service.”  Chris M., Dartmouth, Nova Scotia

“During our recent renovations we were very impressed by the dedication throughout the project. We felt very safe to leave the house, all scheduling and changes were communicated well and they always cleaned up daily. We wanted to express our appreciation.” Jim and Hazel F., Dartmouth, Nova Scotia

Customer Satisfaction

Outstanding job. Very professional service. From the start of the project we knew we were in good hands. We’ll highly recommend your name. Thanks for all.” John C., Vancouver, British Columbia

Excellent crew – good workers, polite, helpful and professional. Thank you!” Michael M., Sault Ste Marie, Ontario

Very professional and provided excellent service. Calvin and Sylvain are professional and pleasant to deal with.” Michael M., Sault Ste Marie, Ontario

Your people were most helpful. Their efforts and workmanship were great. Thanks to everyone involved!” George & Sharon H., Algoma Mills, Ontario

The team was great, they were on time and finished in record time.” D.B., Winnipeg, Manitoba

We were most impressed with the whole team. Everyone was professional yet friendly and helpful at the same time. We felt Mitch was particularly conscientious. We were always well informed and any questions we had were readily answered. Many thanks!” B.K., Winnipeg, Manitoba

We really appreciated their helpfulness! They went out of their way to return our daughter’s ringette gear cleaned and ready to go on very short notice – they treated us like our concerns were their concerns too.” R.R., Winnipeg, Manitoba

Thank you very much. You were very courteous in the way you handled my claim. The final result was excellent, and I am extremely pleased with all that´s been done.” J.B., Winnipeg, Manitoba

Fantastic experience. Hold on to your people, they make all the difference.” J.G. Winnipeg, Manitoba

How does one thank everyone for all the excellent service I recently received with my insurance claim? A special thank you to Sheldon and Terri. Terri, you certainly went out of your way in a pleasant manner! You all made my misfortune an experience that really wasn’t as bad as it could have been – only because you took control and made it easy for me (I know you all worked hard to get to please and get things done in prompt order). My sincere thanks to all.” P.M., Winnipeg, Manitoba

Your workers were not only competent, but also compassionate, as they seemed to understand the angst families go through in this situation. And to top it off, the final costs matched the initial estimate, which made your company the only one to succeed in this among several others we dealt with. So now that things have been restored, a sense of well being is returning, but I’ll never forget the bleak beginning. And I’ll also remember the hope you gave us personally at a time when hope seemed to be in short supply.” Ray & Betty, Antigonish, Nova Scotia

I was most impressed with the team – they were a pleasure to deal with, very accommodating, polite and helpful. I have nothing but the highest level of respect for them in the way they dealt with our situation and cannot say enough about what a pleasure they were to help us, my hats off to them in how they were able to restore our basement to like brand new! They do fantastic work and their attention to detail is outstanding.” Mike & Cathy, Summerside, Prince Edward Island

We recently had the misfortune of experiencing a sewage spill in our basement. The staff carried out the work and we could not be more pleased with the fine job that they did.”Rod & Jan, Summerside, Prince Edward Island

It’s hard to find words warm enough to thank each one of you.” Dick & Cathy O., Porters Lake, Nova Scotia
