Calling an extraction service means there's bad news that triggered the call. I relied heavily on my fellow Yelpers and I was thoroughly impressed with the 4-man crew led by Nari Saua (Project Manager) and Kaulana Gino (Project Estimator). I appreciated the fact that they did a quick assessment and knew that my flooded carpet had endured multiple exposures to flood water and recommended that the carpet be removed and trashed to avoid further exposure to the toxic remnants floating around in the flood waters. The crew helped me hoist some of the heavier furniture and storage containers without

I also don't give 5 star ratings very easily. If I had a chance in this situation, I would give it 10. I called just to get some insight on what to do next now that i had received a botched up job done by another company. Unfortunately, I've been typing up a really bad review on that company & I can't remember if I had gotten a name to give the kudos to. I agree with all the positive reviews that the persons here are very helpful, caring and professional!
For the people out there...I understand the cost of any service may be worrisome but as the motto saying goes "you

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

I dealt with Scott and Darla scheduling was on point. They both was attentive, we did have a hick up on the first day with a no show, but being in business myself I know employees don't necessarily work on Monday's LOL.

As the job progressed they even came in on a Saturday to finish the work since we had a retest scheduled for Monday with expected clearance no later and Wednesday. They BOSS themselves came for the walk thru which they weren't satisfied so ended up redoing the work.

They may have costed me a bit more for the employee's lack of workmanship, but in the end

We needed help quickly and had a very short window to get that help. Urgent Island Restoration came through with flying colors. They helped make what seemed an impossible situation happen and we are very grateful. I highly recommend using Urgent Island!

Our church has used them two times, once for flooding and once for sewer backup. They are on-time, professional, and do their very best to help the customer. Very satisfied and happy to have Urgent Island Care as our "go to" company for cleanup. Scott and Darla are the best. Mahalo!

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!

Update 8/1/19. So maybe I kind of jinxed myself when I said I would

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.

If you are unlucky, and need professional restoration of your property, then Urgent Island Restoration is the business to call.

I contacted Urgent Island when I needed sewage in a yard to be cleaned up.

I texted Darla at Urgent Island Restoration, and quickly got a reply.

Next, Scott Shizuru contacted me promptly, and went to the spill area to give me an estimate. I appreciated that. Trust me, when you have a sewage leak, you don't want it sitting around.

Scott was able to schedule the clean-up work quickly.

Scott did all the coordination with the affected party which was a big help

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

I can't say enough positive things about Scott and his crew of Urgent Island Restoration. As a Realtor who deals with professionals of all trades and backgrounds, I was very impressed with Scott's wealth of knowledge and professionalism.

Thanks Scott and company, for making a really bad situation bearable.

If you're reading this review, you're probably not having a good day. But I have some great news for you... Urgent Island Restoration can and will make things about as good as they can get (under the circumstances).


I live in a condo, and the unit above had a leak that was coming through our bathroom ceiling, dripping down behind the wall, and coming up through the flooring tiles. Not too fun, right? The above unit got the leak fixed, but we were still left with a lot of water and moisture in areas we couldn't access. But no need to worry, Urgent Island Restoration to the

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
