Will definitely recommend for any and all repair work for house!
Professional, clear and always keeping connected with the client. Mr. Octavio Urbina was always notifying us of each and every step, accepting and honoring all of our requests while working on the construction. The job was easily done at the promised time, and no damages or any other minor mess was made. The payment portion was also upfront and honest, never had to argue or hassle, just a really honest company. Will definitely recommend for any and all repair work for house!

Miguel Shiell
We couldn’t be more impressed and grateful for his outstanding service and professionalism.
We needed an expert second opinion from an independent fire restoration company after we had an issue with the one our insurance provided. Manny absolutely went above and beyond, making time the same day we called to go out to our house after his workday ended and provided us with thorough and incredibly knowledgeable advice - all on the Tuesday and Wednesday before Thanksgiving. We couldn’t be more impressed and grateful for his outstanding service and professionalism.

They listened to my concerns and were extremely personable.
I had a flood where both my top floor bathroom and bottom foyer area were flooded. I looked up mitigation services and I came upon Barex. Omar and Manny came out to my home and they were both professional and down to earth. They listened to my concerns and were extremely personable. Omar made sure that I felt comfortable with the entire process and I appreciated his bedside manner Thank you Omar and Barex.

They opened the wall, took out all the bad stuff, dried everything properly and fixed it like it never happened.
We’d been fighting bathroom mold forever and nothing worked until Barex showed up. They opened the wall, took out all the bad stuff, dried everything properly and fixed it like it never happened. The wall looks brand new now and the smell is gone. Super easy to talk to, explained what they were doing, and didn’t cut corners. And Lucia from customer service was amazing, patiently answering all our questions. Feels great to finally have our bathroom back.

They saved my family from mold in our home.
I’d recommend this company to anyone! They saved my family from mold in our home. We discovered mold in the home when my kid kept getting sick and discovered there was a water leak. They responded quickly and helped get the mold. They opened the walls cleaned it and gased our house with no issues and even showed us what was there. When they fixed the wall it looked like they were never there! They kept my home clean and overall were very efficient. I can’t thank them enough for their work!
