Water damage is the most common reason for a mold infestation in homes. Floods, leaks and long term moisture result in mold becoming a genuine concern, and without immediate attention, a sure thing. Mold is a type of fungus that grows from tiny spores that float in the air.
It can grow almost anywhere that spores land and find moisture and a comfortable temperature, somewhere between 40 and 100 degrees Fahrenheit, a range that Oahu stays in 100% of the time.That means mold is always in a temperature range that encourages growth locally. You can easily spot the most visible type of mold, called mildew, which begins as tiny, usually black spots but often grows into larger colonies.

I'm not writing this review to bash UIR, only that prospective clientele should be informed of what may lie in store for them should they contact UIR.
I've been trying to get an accurate written estimate for three days now. Scott the field estimator, determined that the existing flooring could not be matched, and told us, after a phone call to his office, the job, full removal and replacement would be X amount of dollars.
Two days later I get the written estimate for 1/4 the amount of what he said at the meeting. Apparently the lines of communication were blurred, as the written estimate

Scott from Urgent Island Restoration was awesome. I had a water leak in my building which resulted in water damage to my condo flooring. Scott was willing to come out on a holiday to assess the damage, was always available by phone to answer questions, service was quick and professional. Scott was also extremely knowledgeable about the process. In the mess of dealing with homeowners insurance and with other parties, Scott and Urgent Island were the MOST helpful in this disaster of a situation. I will definitely use them again!

I noticed a bunch of mold growing under my kitchen sink and since I don't open that cabinet too often it was pretty bad. Looks like it's been spreading for a while. I went to Yelp to find someone who could treat it and Urgent Island Restoration had good reviews. However when Scott came to inspect it, he just looked at it and said that he couldn't determine if it's mold or dirt or debris. He said there was water damage to the wood but the baseboards are dry. Said he couldn't really do anything to help me. What a waste of my time. I then called Green Home Solutions of Hawaii

Urgent Island Restorations technician Scott came out for a free estimate within 2 hours of calling. He was extremely profession and courteous and knowledgeable about all aspect of mold growth. He made me feel comfortable about moving forward with my home renovations and thankfully there was no mold.

Finding a company or someone to trust when dealing with unfortunate water damage situation was not an easy task. I learned that lesson from the previous company that I used last year to fix a water leak.
This time I was very fortunate with Urgent Island Restoration and Scott was absolutely a godsend. Very professional, very detail and thorough in his work and in his communication throughout.
What a night and day difference between the two companies that I've done business with!
I'm very impressed with the quality of work that Scott did on every step especially in mold remediation process

I've never updated a review on yelp so I'm typing this ahead of my first review of Urgent Island Restoration (UIR) 2017.
When you need to call for help due to a flood or suspicion of mold, it's never a good thing. The blessing is when your distress call is received by helpful, caring and professional people!
We discovered some paint on my powder room walls and ceiling that was bubbling. After scott confirmed 100% wall saturation we cut open portions of the ceiling and two walls. We found black mold. (Previous owner didn't use a licensed plumber) Horrible to

Can't say enough good things about this company - Urgent Island Restoration. This is an excellent company to use for flood and water damage restoration work. Scott, and his highly effective crew were all extremely responsive, efficient, dependable, professional, pleasant and knowledgeable.
They were amazing. Over all I rate them as 5-Diamond, 5 Star, A+ service providers.
I would absolutely use them again, and highly recommend to anyone who needs flood and water damage restoration.
Thanks Scott and company, for making a really bad situation bearable.

This is by far one of the BEST companies that my mother and I have hired. From when I first left a message on Urgent Island Restoration's voice mail due to a flooding that had occurred on Tuesday, 7/18/17 from our toilet pouring out water from the tank area, Mari in the office called me immediately after. She was very pleasant, friendly, and professional and quickly responded by getting someone to come that same day. The person that came was Scott Shizuru, the Project Superintendent. Scott came and gave us the best customer service, which if possible I would give this company a 10 star. From

No one wants to deal with mold and water damage, so when I learned that our condo unit was significantly impacted by a leak, I was concerned. Mari handled all of my concerns, had Scott there within an hour to survey the damage and took action immediately. Mari worked closely with my insurance adjuster ensuring that all was taken care of in accordance with my policy while Scott and Russell worked diligently to ensure all black mold was removed and the unit was dried out safely. Mari answered my questions, made recommendations and ensured the project was completed in a timely manner. What could
