Advantaclean of Greater Hartford, CT

Really appreciate their service. Look forward to doing business with them again.

The owner replied my call the same day and came the next morning to give me a reasonable quote. He was very responsive with my questions and was able to come up with quick solutions. The technicians started the job the same morning when I got the quote to minimize sewer damage and to get rid of bad smell in the basement as soon as possible.

I am extremely grateful and pleased with the quality of personal service we had. Employees were kind, caring and showed empathy for our situation! We had lots of water in our basement from recent storms and they were out quick! Once they got to our home they went straight to work! Hard work! They got to the root of problem and checked every inch of our basement to ensure we had fixed the problem right! From getting water out of our home, to removing carpet and walls and clean up!! they were a one stop shop and made a bad situation much easier for us!! We are grateful and highly recommend!

I had a flood in my basement and it was several days before we removed the carpet . The odor and mold kept getting worse even after we removed it. My waiting caused black mold ! I went to a hotel and called Peter at AdvantaClean . He sent people right over ! He and his staff are SUPER! Professional , caring , on time , hard working bunch of guys . They took care of it and I couldn’t be happier ! I’ve had a flood in the past and wouldn’t use the other company I used back then ever again ! Outcome is like night and day! I highly recommend AdvantaClean and listen to what they say because they know what they are doing ! Dianna , East Windsor, Ct

Advantaclean of Hartford came out and secured my client's house after wind damage on 12 hours notice. Thanks for great service.

My experience with AdvantaClean of Greater Hartford and its owner, Peter Sheldon, was quite unsatisfactory. I had called their appointment setting service to arrange for a mold inspection of a ranch style home I was looking to purchase after observing wetness and what appeared to be mold on the bedroom ceiling during a walk-through. I was quoted $100 for a visual inspection, no air sampling. I clearly explained the situation and my desire for the attic space to be inspected. Mr. Sheldon arrived approximately 15 minutes late without calling, no big deal. He did not have any means to gain access to the attic - no ladder. I brought a ladder as a back-up, so brought it inside. A visual review of the bedroom was informative as Mr. Sheldon demonstrated knowledge of his business. I then set up the ladder for him to gain access to the attic. This is where things started to go South. Mr. Sheldon barely moved the access cut-out cover and then refused to go any further. He could see from the bottom lip where the access cover rests that the attic insulation was not fiberglass and immediately stated the insulation possibly contained asbestos, or ACM as he said - Absestos Containing Material - likely vermiculite. He then talked extensively about his sensitivity to asbestos and the need for having his blood checked annually. At that point, I put on my respirator, pushed the attic cover out of the way and looked in the attic any signs of mold. Mr. Sheldon did not arrive with a respirator, or even a simple dust mask. Odd considering his stated sensitivities and my specific request to enter the attic. As I was putting the access cover back in place, a small piece of insulation fell to the floor which sent Mr. Sheldon double-timing it down the hallway. After leaving the home, I was opposed to paying Mr. Sheldon the full $100 as he was not willing to even poke his head in the attic. He never got a good look at the attic insulation, never-mind actually inspecting the attic for mold. He felt otherwise, explaining he considered the insulation to be PACM, or Presumed Asbestos Containing Material, and that it should not be disturbed. He even suggested that me poking my head in the attic, though never touching or stepping on the insulation, may have been unethical and could have caused the homeowner a problem. When I stated it seemed clear Mr. Sheldon had health concerns/issues as the reason for his unwillingness to fully perform the services for which he was hired, he about lost it. He got extremely agitated and accused me of lying in front of the real estate agent in attendance and trying to damage his business. I tried walking away to calm the situation but he kept coming forward while making further accusations and attempting to justify his actions. When I tried to speak, he'd talk over me. At one point, I must have said, "Can I speak now?", 5 or 6 times, but he would not stop. Then when I got 3 words out, he'd talk over me again. No composure, could not control himself. Quite a scene in the middle of the street. He clearly felt I should respect his approach and decision not to enter since he's the licensed inspector, that I should be deferential. He even stated that the problem was I was "immature". My feeling was a professional would have come prepared to enter the attic, including a ladder and a quality respirator, especially given Mr. Sheldon's stated sensitivity to asbestos. I went back the following day to gather a sample of the insulation to bring to a laboratory for testing. The lab confirmed the material was cellulose, completely non-hazardous. I'm sure if Mr. Sheldon had gotten a full view of the material, he would have recognized it to be blown-in cellulose. A week later, I hired another inspector who entered the attic and quickly found the cause of the mold problem - leaking water lines coming off the air handler, soaking the sheetrock, etc. Perhaps AdvantaClean of Greater Hartford is professional in other scenarios, but if you need a company to enter the attic, you may be better off elsewhere.

They are timely, clean, efficient, and knowledgeable.
