Accu Star Environmental Inc.

Nev Budhwa and his whole team are angels! Our 30 year old water tank cracked on it's seam about 2" down from top. Maybe 10 litres got out before we noticed. I quickly cleaned up the water in the morning but in the afternoon the asbestos tiles in the furnace room were crumbling. I got worried and went onto HomeStars looking for someone to clean this up. I ended up requesting contact with an email to Accu-Star at 9pm on a Saturday night. Nev called us back at 10 that night. Ok, nice. He came out a couple of days later and confirmed that the asbestos should be removed and offered to use his camera to check for dampness in the walls. They were soaked. I explained that over the past 10 years we had a large clear water flood and two minor floods also clear water. He suggested the one plaster wall be opened up and let it dry out naturally. I agreed. The day they were removing the asbestos tiles, one of the crew came out of the containment area and called Nev. Nev showed up at our home, suited up and went into the enclosed are and came out shaking his head...see the photo's. Because our basement had a substantial under floor flood 10 years the areas under the floor and in the walls were a contaminated with black mould. He strongly suggested to clear it out immediately because it was a huge health risk. When I explained that my father raised the floor in the basement and the same tile was underneath the raised floor he became very, very concerned for our health and safety and again strongly suggested clean up. We agreed to have our whole basement gutted because of all the mould. He came over numerous times before and during the clean up to reassure us, answer our many, many questions and did a super wonderful job cleaning up all the mould and asbestos. He even brought in a gentleman, a very professional expert named Mike to do a designated source report to check for the possibility of asbestos in the walls and ceiling because it is a 50's style home. After everything was removed he sent in his crew to paint and seal the concrete floor and a week after that performed an air test to show that there was no more contaminants in our basement. Nev, The Crew, Mike(the DSR guy), everyone associated with Accu-Star are nothing short of amazing & professional. We knew we had a problem but when we found out how bad, we stressed out completely. Thank you Nev, Mike and Accu-Star for all your wonderful, caring work that you did with our home, Pandora's Box.
