First crew (ServPro) hired by insurance company - a total disaster. After complaint to AMICA (our insurance company), they sent out the GREAT TARHEEL folks. A night and day difference. Floor looks like new. And was done promptly, with minimum fuss.

My experience has been less than subpar with this company. My condo was damaged by water in June and this company was called in for the repairs. It is now August and there is still a giant hole in my ceiling as well as a pipe still leaking. Their excuse? The tub in the unit upstairs is not meant for showering in. Crappy excuse in my opinion. I have tried contacting them and no one will answer the phone/email. I know they are having to go through the insurance company from the unit owner upstairs but the repairs should not take 2 months for something this minor. I am ready to have my ceiling back and I'm sure my upstairs neighbor is ready to have her bathroom back! It's been 5 weeks now. I have been sick due to something in the ceiling. They are finally replacing the ceiling but only because I threatened to sue them. I've already contacted the BBB over this whole situation. I have had to initiate all communication with the company and had to tell them off to get them to do anything. They have been using the excuse that the owner upstairs needs to replace the tub yet (in the whole 5 weeks) they have not contacted her to resolve that part of the issue. If I could give them negative stars then I would. Whatever you do, do NOT use this company.

Response from Great Tarheel Restoration Company
Great Tarheel Restoration has been in business for over 20 years and has always provided quality work in a timely manner. Upon our first visit to the site, we communicated that we were not getting a response from the tenants upstairs. We made the owner of the lower property aware of this along with the insurance company, as they too had a difficult time reaching the upstairs tenant. While we understand the feelings of frustration that come as a result of another person's plumbing issues affecting this homeowner's property, it really is out of our control. We worked hard to correct the plumbing issue in the property above and acknowledged it did take longer than we would have liked, mainly due to the tenant upstairs being unavailable. Once the problem in the upstairs property was resolved, we repaired the home, working around the owner of the lower units schedule. GTR always tries to repair homes within a time-frame that works best for the home owner. Yes, this home owner had to take time off from work or have another family member meet us during the repair process, but these are unfortunately events that need to take place in order for a contractor to repair a home. GTR, along with other contractors, have to address frustrations while being compassionate of the home owner's situation, but still acknowledge that these feelings come from the situation of being inconvenienced due to another person's plumbing issues.

They were very responsive, putting in the fans and heaters to dry out the kitchen the same day as we met. They helped me to work with the insurance company. (Insurance company had been reluctant to cover some of the work, and Marty explained to them why it was necessary.) They worked with my schedule, and completed the job as agreed. I especially liked the Leon's work; He installed the counter tops. Glad to have my kitchen and livingroom back, with the upgrades we had added. I called them sometime later when we noticed a small issue. John came by and fixed the problem. I would recommend Great Tarheel Restoration. hopefully we'll never need their services again, but if we did we'd not hesitate to call them.
Description of Work: Dried out and repaired kitchen and livingroom water damage, including cabinet tops, vinyl and hardwood floors.

Amica, my insurance company, referred us to this company. They were quick about getting back to us with the quote. They were really good. We're glad we went with them because they specialize in restoration. The focus was there and they got the job done quickly and fixed in a jiffy. We were really glad we used them. They were so good to deal with, and they wasted no time, either.
Description of Work: This company patched our roof after a tree busted in through our roof. We had extensive water damage as well to our 2000 square foot home. They solved all the leak problems for us. Insurance covered the costs of the work they did for us.

I WAS HAPPY WITH THE WORK THAT WAS DONE. I FEEL THAT SOME OF THE CONTRACTORS THAT THEY HIRED WERE NOT OF EXCELLENT QUALITY, SUCH AS THE PLUMBER AND PAINTER. ON THE WHOLE, THINGS WERE DONE VERY WELL.
Description of Work: DUE TO A FIRE IN MY HOME, THIS COMPANY CAME OUT AND REMODELED THE INSIDE. THEY HIRED CONTRACTORS TO DO THE PLUMBING, CARPENTRY WORK, PAINTING, SIDING, AND TO REPLACE THE WINDOWS, GUTTERS, AND ROOF.
