He was great! Even though he obviously had no money to gain from speaking with me, he spent 20 minutes leading me through what I needed to know and to do. Incredibly knowledgable, professional and kept me from making some big expensive mistakes. I wish he still lived in Florida because I'd steer a ton of business his way.
Description of Work: I am actually a Florida resident who just endured the joys of Hurricane Irma. My condo roof suffered damage and I had a leak down an inside wall which caused damage to my wood flooring. Concerned with mold, I started to call home inspectors and mold assessors to find out what to do. I called Ted and he explained that he had left Florida and moved to North Dakota.

Overall great experience and would highly recommend. A+ Company!!
Description of Work: As a State Contractor, I have high expectations for anyone in a home service industry that would be working on my home. Ted by far exceeded my expectations and was extremely knowledgable in the mold remediation industry. After providing us with his consultation and estimate, we contracted Ted to complete our remediation. When working in my home, Ted was extremely neat, clean, and organized, which you do not see a lot of these days from contractors. I highly recommend Ted to anyone for any Mold Remediation and/or Mold Inspection needs.

Mr Sanchez was honest, professional, and incredibly helpful. He did his best to prevent giving us a big bill by checking several possible causes using scanners/detectors. The problem was caused by a relatively minor issue, saving us lots of money by not tearing into our walls first where the problem seemed to be coming from. I would highly recommend him to anyone.
Description of Work: Ted Sanchez came out to look at some standing water in our utility closet that was leaking into our kitchen.

Ted is the utmost professional who goes above and beyond your expectations. He really likes to solve problems, and truly cares about what he does. I recently had 3 home inspections completed by 3 different companies while I was searching to buy a new home. Ted's was by far the most thorough! I would recommend him to my family!
Description of Work: I needed to have a home inspection for a home purchase. Later I needed a mold inspection, but Ted had moved from Florida to ND. He offered to help with some quick review and problem solving though.

Best money I've ever spent! Before "allowing" me to spend my money on an inspection, Ted wanted to understand what I was concerned about. He immediately put my worst fears to rest and when he did the inspection, made valuable and practical suggestions. He was considerate of budget and gave several options. Does not sell additional services. Completely trustworthy.
Description of Work: Examined parts of house that had flooded, to assess damage & risk (of fungus, mold). Examined mold issues in bathroom and made suggestions to address. Inspected outside around house and made suggestions for protecting home from termites, mold, and water intrusion.

We had a roof leak in a bedroom closet that went undetected for some time. When it was discovered the ceiling was turning black with mold. We called Reliance Inspections because of our concern with the black mold. Ted gave us some tips for dealing with the leak as we waited for the roofing company to replace our roof. Just before the roof was to be replaced Ted came to the house on a Sunday morning to inspect the attic and the closet ceiling. He went in the attic to inspect and photograph the leak area. He then spayed the closet ceiling with an antimicrobial solution and cleaned the ceiling with soap and water. He also recommended an antimicrobial paint to use later on. The mold turned out to be not as bad as it looked so the service call was worth it just for the peace of mind. Ted was prompt, professional and very knowledgeable confirming what others have said on this board.

Ted did and outstanding job! He and his employee were hired to do this job with a specific deadline to meet. They put in long hours to meet the time frame and met the requirements, all of the owners personal belongings were protected extremely well, the part of the house that was not being done, Ted put up barriers to keep the area of concern contained. Ted also did extra work that was not in the bid but he felt so strong about his work and his signature on a product that he did the work on his own. After Ted explained what he had done he was paid extra for the work he did, it was worth every penny. The house is made of all wood and when Ted got done it looked brand new. I WOULD RECOMMEND TED FOR THE JOB! He is extremely professional and knows his business and can answer your questions.
Description of Work: This house has three levels, Ted Sanchez did mold remediation on the upper floor consisting of two large rooms with 14 foot ceilings, he also did the library/ study on this floor as well as the stairwell leading up to the floors.

Ted was responsive to my phone call. I left a message and he called me back in about 15 minutes. We scheduled an appt. and he arrived right on time. He went up into the attic, checked the type and frequency of the nails used to attach the roof and look for evidence of a water membrane barrier. Unfortunately, my roof was not put on with the highest of standards, but Ted was able to calculate the percentage of my roof that is considered a "hip" style roof. Because of that I did get a significant reduction in my home owner's insurance premium. I had an appt. to get to so had to leave before he was able to complete the window inspection that goes along with the wind mitigation. He came back the next morning at 7:00 am so I could get to other appts. I had and he completed the wind mit. form, complete with pictures and emailed it to me by 9:00 that morning. I would definitely use his service again.

Ted was highly professional, knowledgeable, and personable. He provided detailed descriptions of what he was seeing and recommended (in great detail) how the a/c unit needed to be cleaned. He even pointed out things an a/c company may try to do/add to the system that really wasn't necessary. When I originally called him to request an inspection, we talked for about 15 minutes about my situation. Only near the end of the call, when he would have needed to write something down, did he mention he was on a roof bracing himself with one leg! As a consummate professional, prompt responsiveness was important to him. While he doesn't typically write a report, he didn't hesitate to agree to provide me one to show to the landlord. Once the inspection was completed, we continued in a conversation about his family, my family, and our shared experience in the military. He is very friendly and interesting to talk to / learn from. I think so highly of him, that I finally (after many Angie's List experiences) decided to write my first review!
Description of Work: Ted inspected my home for contaminants, concentrating (by my request) on the air conditioning system.

Mr. Sanchez correctly identified and safely removed the source of mold in our home. He also identified other concerns such as dryer lint in the attic (a potential fire hazard), poor insulation and inadequate and dirty air conditioner ducts. He recommended gutters around the front of the house to keep rainwater from eroding the pavers on our driveway (as well as keeping the rainwater away from the slab). In the months since his visit, we have had our ductwork replaced, the dryer lint removed, new insulation added and gutters installed. The room that contained the source of the mold has been remodeled. We've had no problems with mold since then. We have also benefitted from lower heating and cooling costs as well as the cessation of erosion of our pavers. Mr. Sanchez's ability to accurately evaluate the "big picture" and make specific recommendations for intervention has resulted in a measurably better quality of life for us. His professionalism and expertise is second to none. I recommend him without hesitation.

My parents own a condo in Seminole. For health reasons, they were unable to check on their condo. We contacted Ted Sanchez, of Reliance Inspections, to see whether he could inspect and take care of the mold issue. Reliance Inspections was rated high on Angie's List and for good reason. Ted Sanchez went above and beyond what he needed to do! He was honest, professional, and really thorough in his work. Not only did he remove the mold and take care of the problem, he also gave us advice on what could cause potential problems in the future. We think Reliance Inspections, Inc. is a fantastic company! We are so happy Ted Sanchez was able to take the job!

Ted was AWESOME! He is the owner of the company. If it were possible to give an A+++, I would. If you are looking for a home inspector, someone to handle mold inspection/remediation and any of the other areas described in 'Reliance Inspections' as services they render, than this is the company you should call. If Ted would have done the home inspection on our home before the closing, he would have saved $1,000's in repairs that the seller should have taken care of. He is thorough, detailed, operates with integrity and gives world class customer service and delivers on what he does. He handled himself and treated us like he was taking care of his own home. He also has served our country in the military. Give him a call, you'll be glad you did.
Description of Work: Trouble shot 3 leaks in home and gave fixes, 1 from roof, 1 from front foundation & 1 bathroom leak, he checked for mold issues at all 3 wet areas, pulled carpet in wet areas to facilitate drying, gave us a detailed report of findings/fixes w/ pics

Ted was extremely professional, experienced and knowledgeable. I have many others out to inspect this mold-like growth on my foyer ceiling, and they just guessed as to what it was. He was the first one who knew exactly what this growth was and got rid of it. He made some extremely helpful suggestions to prevent the problem from reoccurring. I wish I had hired him 8 months ago.

We had previously been quoted $1600 by another mold inspector and were gearing up for a very expensive repair. Ted came in and told us we didn't need a remediation. The effected area was so small he suggested we do it ourselves rather than hire a company. He told us how to do it and pointed out another issue he thought we should address, also ourselves, and told us how to do that as well. I was so relieved to have someone that honest come. He could have quoted us a large fee like the other company did but he chose honesty instead. Very rare in home repair work as I'm learning. I so appreciate it and will certainly use Reliance for any further need we may have. I hope you will consider using them too.
