Review consensus
Field technicians get strong, consistent praise by name. Alberto, Christian V., Mario, Freddy, Anderson, Samuel, and Luis Hernandez appear repeatedly across positive reviews. Reviewers highlight quick arrival times, clean work areas after equipment removal, and willingness to explain the drying process. James is praised by multiple reviewers as a responsive project manager, particularly in older reviews under the AOA name. Pablo is noted for going out of his way to respond quickly to emergencies.
5 found across 171 total reviews at 5.0★. Five complaints in the recent window cover different issues. One reviewer described repeated no-shows, minimal time spent on-site, and incomplete work. Another waited days for an estimate after being told twice it would come that afternoon. A third described rude and dismissive customer service staff. A fourth was refused an estimate because they identified as a renter rather than the homeowner (the owner response confirmed this is company policy, citing insurance and legal requirements). The fifth complained about dangerous driving by a company vehicle on the highway, which is unrelated to service quality.
The negative reviews cluster in early May 2026, all within a two-week span. Four of the five come from reviewers with very few total reviews (1-4 each) and none are Local Guides. This burst pattern with low-activity accounts is unusual but not conclusive. The one owner response out of five is a substantive, policy-based explanation rather than a template deflection, but the 20% response rate on negatives is low for a company with this volume of positive reviews.

The field crews earn near-universal praise, and the company clearly has depth on the technician side. Ask for a written estimate with a timeline before work begins, and confirm who your point of contact will be for scheduling. If you are a renter, get your landlord involved before calling, as the company requires property owner authorization.
Keep in mind
- They do both mold testing and mold removal, which creates a financial incentive to find problems they can bill to fix. Consider getting an independent mold test before committing to their remediation services.
- One reviewer reported being refused an estimate because they were a renter rather than the property owner. The company confirmed this policy in their response, saying they require homeowner authorization before providing estimates.
- Multiple recent one-star reviews mention missed appointments and delayed estimates, with one reviewer waiting days for a quote they were told would come that afternoon.
- They claim to serve nearly all of New Jersey, listing 200+ cities from Trenton to Wyckoff. Response times may vary significantly outside their core central NJ area around Bound Brook and Bridgewater.
