He talks a lot about how mold is everywhere and grid to minimize because I think he's used to all the crazy worries we all have - so understand that's where he's coming from when he almost excessively tried to calm your fears.

Hope he doesn't change.

Restoration R Us absolutely exceeded every expectation, and Norm is the reason why. I cannot…read morerecommend him highly enough. We were dealing with a mold situation at one of the worst possible times, right before Thanksgiving, and Norm still made us a priority. He voluntarily drove from Irvine to Los Angeles that same night to help us, which speaks volumes about his dedication and professionalism. From the moment he arrived, Norm was warm, approachable, and extremely knowledgeable. He took the time to fully diagnose the issue and explain what he was seeing in a way that made sense to us. Instead of scheduling another visit or delaying anything, he went ahead and removed the mold that very night. His willingness to act immediately made a huge difference for our peace of mind and our timeline. What really stood out was how easy Norm was to work with. He is incredibly friendly, very communicative, and refreshingly transparent about every step of the process. He also respected our busy schedule and adjusted his timing to work around us. It is rare to find someone who combines skill, integrity, and genuine care for their customers, but Norm truly does. His pricing was more than fair, especially given the urgency and holiday timing. If you need mold removal or restoration work, Restoration R Us is the company to call. Norm sets the standard for quality, reliability, and customer service. We are grateful for his help and will absolutely turn to him again if we ever need anything in the future.

We didn't know anything about him, and I wouldn't normally have high hopes for someone recommended via insurance. But it turns out that he did amazing work. We had little kiddos, and he showed genuine concern in wanting to make sure that our house was in good shape before we moved in. Over the years, we have recommended him to friends as someone we trust to do a good and thorough job. He was honest in his opinions, both with good news and bad news. We've used him since on other issues. He's always really good to follow up and see if the issue was still resolved. He's offered to look at videos that we send. He's patiently answered questions over the phone and in person. We highly recommend him. He's amazing to work with and it's comforting to feel like you have a trusted contact for a certain set of homeownership problems that can arise. It's a huge relief to not have to gamble on a random company you find on the internet. He's our go-to any time we need any kind of remediation work. And I try to recommend him whenever I can. A+ Business!!

No upselling, no pressure -- just clear, professional advice, which is honestly rare these days. Jose was the one who handled the appointment and he was excellent. Super knowledgeable, easy to talk to, and took the time to explain everything in a way that actually made sense. You can tell he cares about doing things the right way. On top of that, their pricing came in lower than other companies I had looked into, which made the whole experience even better. If you're looking for a company that's honest, fair, and easy to work with, I'd highly recommend Jarvis and especially Jose.

Dealing with restoration work is stressful enough, but from the very first call they made the whole process feel way less overwhelming. Meghan was patient, responsive, and genuinely cared about what was going on. Every question I had (and I had a lot) was answered quickly and clearly. Her team stayed on top of communication, followed up without me having to chase anyone down, and kept everything moving smoothly. What really stood out was how professional and organized the entire team was. They treated the situation with urgency but also with empathy, which honestly makes such a big difference when you're already stressed. If you're ever in a situation where you need a restoration company you can actually trust, ask for Meghan and her team. Top‑tier customer service and people who truly know what they're doing. Would absolutely recommend!

Having to complete a re-pipe and full renovation in about a month was overwhelming, but they helped turn a very difficult situation into something manageable. From the very beginning, Cory the owner, came out to assess the damage. Cory was knowledgeable, thorough, and immediately made me feel confident that I was in good hands. Cory assured me that he and his team would guide me step-by-step through the entire process, and they absolutely did. He connected me with his business partner, Casey, who exceeded every expectation I had. Casey was instrumental in communicating and negotiating with my insurance company to ensure everything needed to properly restore my home was covered and handled correctly. He was honest, extremely thorough, highly knowledgeable, and always responsive. I always felt he was truly on my side, and there was never any sense of cutting corners. Coming from outside this industry, I didn't know what to expect, and I was genuinely surprised by the level of expertise I found. After working with Casey, I completely understand the value of having an insurance advocate. He made a complicated process clear, manageable, and consistently fought for what was right. Both Cory and Casey were my advocates from start to finish. Their honesty, transparency, and communication made a devastating situation far easier. I am extremely grateful to Emergency Home Solutions. Choosing them was one of the best decisions I could have made. I highly recommend them. I don't usually write reviews, but I felt absolutely compelled to share this experience.

This review is long overdue for a company that truly deserves the highest recognition. Get ready…read morefor a bit of a novel, but my experience with Emergency Home Solutions warrants every single word. I found out about Emergency Home Solutions in a complete happenstance kind of way back in January 2026. My extremely old water kicked the bucket. I initially hired Olson Superior Plumbing because I had used them once before, and purchasing a new water heater through them was the easiest, smoothest process I have ever experienced. All was good in my new water heater world until exactly two weeks later. My upstairs neighbor's water heater leaked heavily down into my closet, right onto my brand-new unit. Luckily, my dog-like ears caught a distant dripping sound at 9:00 PM on a weekend. I was in at total frenzy seeing a sopping wet closet, fearing my new unit was faulty. This was the first time I had to use Olson's 24/7 emergency line, and the woman on duty, Cai, called me right back. She immediately put me on the schedule for the next day. Thankfully, my new water heater was perfect, but the closet, walls and ceiling inside were not because of the severe water damage. There was an urgency for remediation and restoration. Fortunately, Olson Superior Plumbing works side-by-side with a restoration company called Emergency Home Solutions. Olson was extremely helpful in getting me in direct contact with them to fix this urgent situation. Hiring an emergency company on a blind referral is nerve-wracking, but Emergency Home Solutions made it incredibly easy. It turned into a complicated two-month debacle involving insurance claims, water mitigation, and extensive restoration. Cory Bowen, the founder, was one of the most genuine, helpful people I have ever met. He personally came on-site to inspect the damages, mapping out the scope of work clearly and concisely. He lowered my stress significantly by holding my hand through the entire process. If I were to be critical, communication regarding active coordination and scheduling could be slightly improved. Additionally, the billing side needs tightening; they took my final payment quickly but failed to provide a proper invoice or a paid-in-full receipt, which is unacceptable for a business. However, I gladly overlook these blemishes because the overall service was phenomenal. I absolutely recommend Emergency Home Solutions; the peace of mind is entirely worth it. I am forever grateful for these people who offered an endless amount of generosity and patience throughout this whole process. My apologies if I have forgotten anyone as my notes are an endless pile at the moment. CORY BOWEN - (Owner) Offered so much knowledge and efficiency while being empathetic to the situation. MELISSA - An exceptional first point of contact person who has an abundant amount of knowledge. FABIAN - Project Manager for the Demolition side of Emergency Home Solutions. I call him the Blue Tape/Dehumidifier guy. This man gets huge compliments for always answering his phone no matter what time, staying on top of things with a lot of moving parts. JENI HERRERA - Water Mitigation Estimator contact. This woman has expertise like no other with the sweetest bedside manner. JOSUE & UZZI - Demolition Team - A demolition team these two were. They were professional and efficient, but were also FUNNY as all get out that kept spirits high. They are passionate about their work which I rarely see and it won't be forgotten. I had never heard the name Uzzi before and was embarrassed I could not hear him correctly. He clarified with using a rhyme - Uzzi in the Jacuzzi. This was the best humor ever! JOSE - Emergency Home Solutions Estimator Restoration Side - Reserved, but super nice, professional guy who arrived early and took necessary photos layouts of restoration scope. Unfortunately, I was upset due to miscommunication regarding appointment scheduling. Jose took my attitude in stride and got the job done. CASEY VAIL - Project Manager for the Restoration side of Emergency Home Solutions. He had an endless pit of energies which was initially shocking. In all honesty, Casey was an absolute pleasure to work with. He was "all in" all the time and was always available. You had questions, he had answers. You needed anything, he was on it. Phenomenal with details and multitasking. He was my "best friend" everyday contact for approximately two months. Highest compliments to Casey because there are no words to express how much he helped me. JORDAN & ARTURO - Subcontractors for Emergency Home Solutions - Restoration "put the house back together" team. This was a two-man crew, craftsmanship and perfection at its finest. Always came on time, worked hard, and were meticulous in all of the work being done. Unfortunately, communication was not the best in this section, but the restoration was done exceeding my expectations and ensuring my complete level of satisfaction.
