This company is very professional, efficient and thorough in its restoration work! Ben Fetzer handled our situation with a very caring attitude, diagnosing and understanding the extent of the water damage in our home.

“Their work exceeded my expectations”
5/5 Stars.
Ben and his crew were extremely thorough and informative. I bought a foreclosed house that had been vacant for a year. The finished basement was a soggy, moldy mess due to foundation issues. Fresh Start gutted everything and treated for mold. Ben was very helpful pointing out other things about the house that needed to be addressed with the renovation. Their work exceeded my expectations. I would highly recommend them to anyone needing mold remediation. (Rating 5/5)

“They went the extra mile to help us prevent future problems”
5/5 Stars.
We were very pleased with Fresh Start's removal of the mold in our basement. They take their time to do a clean, professional job, and they even left the air scrubbers and a dehumidifier for an extra 2 days because of the heavy rains we received right after their work. They went the extra mile to help us prevent future problems until we could get the foundation fixed. The final price was exactly what the estimate said, and they showed up on-time and checked in via email and text to make sure we were comfortable during the process. Thank you for an excellent job!

“Considerably more experienced than others”
5/5 Stars.
Ben was professional and a great communicator. He handled our project promptly and explained his work in layman's terms. We received several bids for our project, and his quote was reasonable. Ben seemed considerably more experienced than others we had bid on the project and he did the work himself. We are glad we used Fresh Start and would recommend him to others. (Rating 5/5)

“I never at any time felt pressured to use his services and he was more than helpful in recommendations”
5/5 Stars.
I am very impressed. He arrived promptly and was very professional and personable. He evaluated the area of mold in question and gave his recommendations. He gave me the option of having him do the work and how much it would cost or, since in my case the mild damage was fairly light, gave me the option of doing the work myself and gave recommendations how to do that. I chose to do it myself. I never at any time felt pressured to use his services and he was more than helpful in recommendations. I have had many people out to work on my house and it is very difficult to find trustworthy companies who actually do good work and stick with what they say. Having said that I highly recommend this company. (Rating 5/5)

I Got More Than My Moneys Worth!
5/5 Stars.
They did a fantastic job of removing old insulation and installing new paper backed insulation in our walkout basement. They were professional and very polite. I would highly recommend them to anyone who has moldy insulation that needs to be removed and replaced. They were very competitive on their pricing. I would say that I got more than my moneys worth from this great company. 5 STARS (Rating 5/5)

“Helped us deal with our tenants who were not pleasant to deal with”
5/5 Stars.
Experiencing mold is not a pleasant situation, it's stressful to deal with and costly to remediate. I am a landlord who recently had the misfortune of this ordeal. The lower level of a duplex had a light coating of mold on the woodwork due to poor circulation of air. It seems the return vents were covered up by large furniture items and the toilet had (unbanned to me) recently leaked enough to soak a good portion of the carpeting. After having the carpet removed, I never experienced this type of mold situation before, so I went looking for help. I had read through many websites and settled on calling FreshStart. The site was informative and the company seemed honest. I met up with Ben from FreshStart. My first impression was young but knowledgeable. Ben showed us ways we could accomplish some of the remediation ourselves, but after some investigation, we determined the job was too big for us to accomplish without professional help. Ben and his team did a great job taking care of our problems. He helped us deal with our tenants who were not pleasant to deal with. I think he went above and beyond in helping us out. I would recommend Bens' services and would use FreshStart again (God forbid I ever need this type of work done again). (Rating 5/5)

Fantastic Service
5/5 Stars.
Fantastic service. Addressed our individual situation and budget so professionally - really made us feel relieved. Very attentive, quick results, at a great price. Would/will definitely recommend and use again. Worked with Ben and he was great. Good communication and turn around. He answered all of our questions open and honestly... didn't feel at all like he pushed or hid anything! Thanks FreshStart! (Rating 5/5)

Very Reasonable!
5/5 Stars.
Ben was awesome. He called me immediately when I placed a web-based request. I contacted him on a Saturday afternoon and he was at my house on Monday at 8 am. He was very professional, kind, and courteous. He charged me exactly what he quoted me for a few mold spots in the attic. He was very reasonable and charged me far less than what I expected to pay. He is top notch and I highly recommend him. (Rating 5/5)

“Very friendly, professional, courteous, and willing to answer all questions I had”
5/5 Stars.
Ben came to investigate a potential mold problem we were having due to a leaking air conditioner in the unfinished area of our basement. He was very friendly, professional, courteous, and willing to answer all questions I had. He very thoroughly inspected the area, even going into the most unpleasant areas of our basement. He told me what probably was and was not mold, as well as how to go about cleaning the areas myself that were not a huge concern. It turned out the water damage had caused some mold to grow in the insulation and dry wall of the finished part of our basement behind the baseboards, which needs to be fixed but is relatively minor. He went into great detail about how he would go about the mold remediation process. He further investigated some other concerning areas in the basement and was very knowledgeable and willing to share as much information as possible about the situation. We are waiting on an estimate for the work to be done (he just did the inspection today) but so far I am very pleased and has put my mind at ease about the extent of the damage. I will update once any work has been done. (Rating 5/5)

“a PERFECT customer experience”
5/5 Stars.
Many thanks to Ben Fetzer and Fresh Start Restoration, for a PERFECT customer experience. Mold is a scary situation that you don’t want to fool around with. I initially found Fresh Start on Angie’s List, then received an additional rec on them through another business resource. The process was timely and professional from the first consultation, to the immaculate condition they left our two rooms in when they finished. I am a customer service manager, so I appreciate the extra details it takes to go above and beyond. My husband and I gratefully give this company, 5 stars. We also encourage everyone who needs a mold remediation company to call and place your confidence in Fresh Start Restoration. Thanks again for everything, Ben! (Rating 5/5)
