Report
After massive water damage to our home, we contacted First Choice Restoration in Walla Walla, Wa. Rory and his crew were fantastic to work with. The finished project is absolutely beautiful and we couldn't be happier. Their crew are professional, friendly and very thorough. We highly recommended First Choice Restoration if you have any home damage. You won't regret it. They even helped us pick out new flooring, cabinets, etc. when we came "home" for the first time after the work was finished, the whole house was spotless, beds were made and home was perfectly staged, even in the 3 rooms that weren't affected by the water damage. This miracle worker is Rachel. Wow, just WOW!
