What recent reviews say

Most customers praise Woodhouse for fast emergency response, clear day-to-day communication, and crews that finish jobs cleanly and on time. The team handles complex flood, fire, and mold work with care; staff names like the team, the team, the team, and the team appear repeatedly in reviews citing professionalism and attention to detail. However, two recent complaints flag serious delays (weeks of no response, work starting months after approval) and inconsistent workmanship on larger jobs, with one customer reporting the need for callbacks to fix substandard work and poor cleanup practices.

Insurance referrals are common, and staff manage claims smoothly for most. The gap between top-tier five-star jobs and the troubled accounts suggests outcomes depend heavily on which crew and project manager are assigned. Those expecting quick turnaround and daily communication should verify availability upfront; larger jobs or delayed approvals may require more oversight.

Praised for
  • professional, responsive communication
  • detail-oriented work
  • efficient project coordination
  • polite and respectful crew
  • follow-up inspections and aftercare
Watch-outs
  • project delays and slow response to inquiries
  • inconsistent workmanship on some jobs
  • poor communication between teams and homeowner
  • lack of cleaning prior to belongings return

Best for: homeowners with insurance claims needing same-day emergency contact and clear daily updates
Think twice if: you expect fast approval-to-start timelines; some customers report months between claim approval and work beginning, and communication gaps during planning phases

Strengths

  • insurance-referred and claims-savvy
  • full-service repair (drywall, painting, baseboards, flooring)
  • 24/7 emergency dispatch
  • named staff track records for specific services

The team, the team, and the team lead a team that handles air ducts, dryer vents, carpets, and upholstery with visible care. Customers repeatedly praise the work quality and friendliness, often returning over years. One technician's rudeness and a shoe-removal dispute stand out sharply against the overwhelmingly positive pattern. The company claims to operate since 1976 across Kitchener, Waterloo, Cambridge, and Guelph. Most reviews highlight efficient, professional service; the crew explains the process clearly and leaves spaces cleaner than expected. Two complaints hint at occasional lapses in respect and communication that undercut the standard.
