What our clients say
Trusted Across Florida
Florida property owners, attorneys, and claim professionals trust Everest for independent property damage inspection and testing. Here's what they have to say.
I have used EBCG many times and could not be happier with their response time, the quality and detail of their work, and the professionalism of their staff. I'm incredibly grateful to have an organization like EBCG in my corner when navigating the stressful process of dealing with insurance carriers.
I have worked with the folks at Everest for about 5 years now and have found their service to always go beyond expectations, their professionalism exemplary, and their communication extremely responsive. I would recommend them for moisture mapping, mold testing, and structural engineering.
I've been investing in property for twenty years. I cannot overstate the importance of getting quality testing done before your purchase. I've used multiple companies in multiple states and Everest has by far been the best. I highly recommend.
The Everest Team did a very thorough evaluation of water intrusion in my new home after hurricane. Very professional and detailed in work and report. Cost was covered by my insurance and also helped me in the process of insurance review, mold remediation and repairs. Without this report much would have been missed.
Great assistance providing our commercial building with a detailed air quality report. We had a Mold and Moisture Assessment done and can now update our HVAC system to mitigate anything toxic. The test was non-invasive and only took a few hours. Thank you to Les Retherford for being so helpful.
I started coughing constantly for three years living in my apartment. I called Everest and they found mold. After moving out my coughing stopped completely. I am so glad I called them. Thank God.
Professional engineering reports and quick turnaround service. It's a pleasure working with Everest. Top notch company and staff.
