He was professional and friendly, but also extremely knowledgeable and thorough. Safety is my number one priority and I did not want to be moving into a house that could cause any health or safety problems. We received our report faster than expected. The report was extremely detailed and included photos from multiple angles and explanations of his findings with regards to how urgent a potential repair would be. Steve was worth every penny!

Work proceeded quickly and neatly, and the mess that always accompanies tile work was well contained and cleaned up. The project took somewhat longer than originally scheduled due to slow delivery of some materials, but this delay wasn't under Tappan Z's control.

After interviewing multiple contractors, we chose Tappan Z because of their competitive quote and positive reviews, and they did not disappoint! Theo was communicative, the crew showed up every time they said they would, and the work was completed on schedule. Theo and the team also quickly addressed the inevitable small issues that came up during the project and always kept us informed of the progress. They completely transformed both spaces, and we couldn't be happier with the work. We can't recommend Tappan Z enough for home remodeling! Thanks, Theo, Jose, and team!

I quickly decided to go with Neil. He is polite, patient and be able to clearly walk me through the whole process, knowing I am a first time homebuyer. He also offers a better fee compared to other inspectors. During the day of inspection, Neil was on time, spent about 1.5 hours to inspect the house. You can tell that he is very experienced and knowledgeable. He is very thorough during the entire inspection and gave helpful inputs afterward. His report is detailed and he offered to speak to me if I have any further questions. Neil also advised to do further inspection and ended up helping with the purchase price negotiation before I enter contract. I highly recommend Neil if you are looking for a home inspector!

I hate coming home to a mess. It stresses me out…read more But between managing a busy work schedule and trying to fit in quality time with my kid, my free-time is limited, and spending weekends doing chores like cleaning is not something I particularly want to do! So I didn't ... and surely enough, despite my efforts to try and tidy up here and there, the mess built up. At first, I didn't really notice it, but then little by little, the place became unmanageable. It got to a point where I hated going home because I felt like I was walking into pigsty and it depressed me. After trying to ignore the issue, I reached a point where I decided I needed to do something because ignoring the problem was not going to fix it; and if I wanted to change the way I felt about my messy home, I needed to either spend the time cleaning or spend some money hiring a professional to help me. I'd never hired a professional cleaning service before and practically speaking, I initially had three concerns: (1) where do I find one? (2) can I even afford it? and; (3) can I find a trustworthy company where I feel safe entrusting them with my keys to come in and clean my place while I'm not home. As for my first question, I literally didn't know where to start. Eventually, I managed to find my way to Yelp and looked up services that are near me. I'm in Edgewater and based on my location, it recommended 4 places, so I requested a quote from all 4. Express Cleaning Team was the last to respond to my query but I'm really glad they did because it solved my second concern: cost. I originally had an idea of how much I wanted to spend but after receiving quotes from the first 3 services, I was left feeling disappointed because it was WAY beyond what I wanted to budget for a weekly appointment. It turned out that ECT's rates are so reasonable and affordable, my only regret is not having looked into this much sooner. All I had to do was to fill out their booking form on their website. Once I completed their dozen or so questions, I was quoted less than $100 a week to clean my two bedroom/one bathroom apartment. Now that I knew there was a service near my home that fit my budget, the only thing I had left to determine was whether I could trust them enough to give them a copy of my keys to clean the apartment when I'm at work. I wanted to make sure, so once I got an email confirmation from Jimmy, I asked him if it were possible to meet someone from the company on a weekend when I was home. Despite being outside of their business hours, his wife Fary graciously agreed to come by on Saturday to meet me and personally clean my apartment. I mean, how amazing and awesome is that?! It was her day off, but she still nonetheless took the time to come to my home just to meet me, give me the peace of mind, and did a truly AMAZING job. I didn't stay the entire time she was there but when I came home later that night, I was left speechless. I was so stunned and grateful for the care and attention that was clearly spent because everything was perfect. Honestly, it was like every little thing was carefully put in its place and every surface was expertly cleaned. You could easily tell how much care and attention was spent making sure I came home happy. If you're reading this review, you may be interested in hiring a cleaning service but have similar concerns about actually hiring one like I did. If so, I hope this helps in your calculus for reaching a decision. I was very pleased in my decision to hire ECT and I'm certain that going forward, I will actually want to come home instead on being depressed whenever I walk through my door.
