EXCELLENT Based on 171 reviews Kristen Black2025-04-10Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I've worked with Tad and The Certified Restoration team twice now on emergency water mitigation issues and they are great! One thing that stands out in particular is the communication and customer service. I've worked with a lot of contractors and this team is by far the easiest to communicate and coordinate with which is super helpful when working thru an emergent water issue. Highly recommend! Jesus Velazco2025-04-08Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We have an air bnb. The city's main sewer line backed up and came into my bathroom from the toilet and shower. It was gross. I searched Google and found Certified Restoration. They are a full service 24/7 emergency response company. They dispatched on a Sunday and we're there within the hour. I can't believe how fast they were able to remove the contamination and make my bathroom look cleaner that it ever has. Great value for the price. Jasmine Marchese2025-04-02Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Great communication and super prompt service.

Barbara Hensley2025-03-31Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Certified Restoration Jesus diagnosed my unknown and unseen 3rd floor dishwasher leak after the ceiling on the first floor collapsed. Their abilities and professionalism through the diagnosis and mitigation have been superb. They have been timely informative and conscientious and I recommend them and Certified unconditionally Grant Warren2025-03-21Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Michael and Thomas were amazing! They came over after hours to help get my place prepped and were always helpful and respectful when I called for updates. I cannot thank both of them enough for the work performed. Eric Martineau2025-03-14Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I work for a local General Contractor here in San Diego, and we had some water come in on one of the roofs we were in the process of repairing for a customer. This was a first for us, but we knew we needed to act fast. Certified Restoration picked up immediately and was on the project within the hour. They gave an honest assessment, rectified the damages, and made our customer feel at ease. Big thanks to Tad, Mike and the team at Certified Restoration! Donald Alvarez2025-03-10Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. This team was great to work with. Everything was done so well. Desiree Burchell2025-03-08Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Love this company!!

Jamie Crowe2025-03-07Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Certified Restoration inc. were EXCELLENT!! I give them an A+. They were prompt, kind and very communicative every step of the way. The manager Tad made sure to call me after every process to update me on the restoration. They also were so helpful with being the liaison between me and my HOA. I have had about 3 floods in my condo (over the years) and this company , by far was THE BEST to deal with. I appreciate all their great work and you will too. Susie Prestidge2025-03-06Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Certified Restoration arrived quickly and helped us save our wood flooring. They were personable and easy to worked with. I would highly recommend them.
EXCELLENT Based on 139 reviews Melissa G.Verified Had a recent mold issue in both my bathrooms. Ulises and Adan were super kind and respectful during me entire service appointment. Not only did they complete the restoration to both my bathrooms, they noticed there was some to the bathroom door and took care of that as well. I really wish I had before/after pictures because it looks perfect. Super recommend for their great service, skills, and speediness. Juan A.Verified Service for water damage they are professional keep you in the loop and do great work. Good value for the quality of work. K K.Verified This is a great company. Tad and Jesus were top notch at assessing the problem (leak from fridge to lower basement), communicating options, and working with us to restore only what was needed. Great value. I'd highly recommend Certified Restoration. Karen T.Verified Great company. I called them to investigate a musty smell in a little used bathroom. Arrived on time and Jesus did a thorough inspection, reporting a low water level in toilet which was causing moldy buildup inside bowl. He cleaned and deodorized the toilet and checked bathtub. There is carpet in the bathroom but he found no dampness. There was no attempt to sell me unnecessary work. He was extremely nice, pleasant and helpful. The person who answered my initial call was also extremely pleasant and helpful. I recommend calling them if you have any water damage or mold issues in your home or office. Helen G.Verified I can't say enough about this company! We had a major flood 5 days before house guests were due to arrive for our son's wedding. Tad was at our house within hours, was very reassuring, and worked hard with his team to dry out our downstairs and reset our furniture in time for our guests to arrive. Tad, Tomas and all their crew were so professional - responsive, prompt, thorough, polite - and they left the space as clean as possible when they were done. Tad even came back to walk the space with our insurance adjuster and point out damage that may not have been obvious. They go above and beyond and I strongly recommend them! Kyle ..Verified I recently experienced a flood at my house and turned to Certified Restoration for help. From start to finish, their service was outstanding. The team arrived promptly and immediately took action to mitigate the water damage. They were professional, efficient, and very careful with my belongings. Understanding how important my items were, they meticulously packed and stored everything in a MI-BOX storage unit, ensuring each item was protected. Throughout the restoration process, they communicated clearly and kept me informed of the progress. They even sent me photo updates along the way, see the pics sent in my review. When the restoration was complete, Certified Restoration helped me move everything back in, making sure everything was in its place and in the same condition as before the flood. I highly recommend Certified Restoration for their exceptional service and attention to detail. They truly care about their customers and their belongings. Matt C.Verified Michael, the owner, and his entire crew were a pleasure to work with. They were professional. The communication was very clear and personable. Michael even offered some advice on repairing and rebuilding the space they cleaned and sanitized. And the work was thorough, getting our house back to normal. I would definitely recommend this company to my friends and family. Kelly A.Verified Even in Michael's response to this review he is lying. I verbally spoke to him about the full scope of the job. I told him that the entire job included the upstairs, he agreed, and now he is lying by saying we only wanted what was in the photos. That's categorically false. I verbalized that I did not have access to take pictures but we did indeed want that included. He still did not address the fact that they took the money and ran without us inspecting the job even though two of us asked to check the work when they were done. Now he's saying "contact me to discuss" but that's what we've been trying to do and he doesn't respond! His response was to appear helpful/responsive to those reading these reviews but don't believe it folks- he's not! Brooklyn R.Verified I contacted certified restoration for a water link in our condo unit. The team was super responsive, came out on a Sunday morning when other companies were closed and provided steps to get remediation repair started immediately. I highly recommend using this company. Jessica F.Verified Tad, Tomas and Luis did an amazing job. They were efficient, professional exceptionally polite and kind. Certified Restoration delivered above and beyond!
