These are good people. I can't tell you how thankful we are to have dealt with Dry Patrol - specifically Bobby & Ryan. We don't live in Ohio, but near Philly. Our house was flooded from Hurricane Ida on Sep 1st and in the days following we stayed in a hotel where I noticed their truck in the parking lot. Turned out they were working on a big corporate job nearby. Given the widespread flooding here, finding a water mitigation company was difficult so I took a chance and called the number on their truck. Long story short, they were heading back to Ohio before we could hire them BUT the time and length

Dry Patrol was great, we had Chris, Jake, and Ken and they were fast and did a awesome job. We really appreciated how good of a job they did cleaning up after the job, we were expecting a bit of a mess but the room was 100 percent guest-ready when they left.

We had quite a mess for Dry Patrol to help clean up and they did an excellent job. They were on time and provided daily updates including photos of the progress. The techs really were kind and compassionate which was so much appreciated. The only thing I would change is the process for estimating the costs upfront. Our situation was tricky but it would have helped to know the total cost and to have things like extra dumpsters anticipated in the estimated costs. Overall great experience and we were satisfied with the job!

Hayden and Logan were professional and efficient. They came half hour earlier than expected and finished within the time promised. They shared some great information about a maintenance schedule and we appreciated their insights given the conditions at our home---a pretty long run of dryer venting. Thank you to the team for taking care of us.

I had a flood and sewage backup in my basement and had reached out to another company my insurance company named in their list of companies I could contact, but that I could use whoever I wanted. After a few days of little contact and no response from a few companies, I called Dry Patrol on my way home from work. They sent someone that evening to assess the situation.
Kenneth came and reviewed the details of what it would take to get my basement in order and was professional and informative. A crew came to my home to demo walls and permanent fixtures that were damaged in the basement (Chris
