A great company to work with... and one I know give a LOT back to the community!!!Emilie Pilkerton15:30 02 Oct 25Elegant Restoration is amazing! We had a minor flood in our basement in May 2025, and they came out IMMEDIATELY to provide mitigation services. We were away when the damage was incurred, but our basement was in great shape when we returned. For the repair work that followed, ER was prompt, professional, and guided us expertly in tandem with our insurance company. Ashley was communicative and very quick to respond to phone calls and texts, and Rebecca alleviated a lot of worry during the whole process. My husband and I could not say enough good things about this operation. :)Tim Anderson03:24 07 Sep 25We recently had water damage due to an overflow of our sump pump in the basement. Elegant came in basically the next day and got started on the mitigation work. Gary, Jaime and the entire team did a fantastic job and were incredibly knowledgeable answering any questions and concerns throughout the job.They also showed a great deal of compassion and empathy for the stress we were going through and made the whole process easier and more comfortable overall.I’d also like to leave a shout out for Ashley in the front office who always made herself available for any questions or concerns we had throughout! Great job Elegant!David Sexton18:17 18 Mar 25On August 7th 2023 a tornado caused a one hundred foot Oak tree to crush throug one third of our brick home. With the help of our tree Arborer, Elegant Restoration was contacted and Dave Chmura immediately arrived at the scene. The damage was broadcast on local and National news highlighting two elderly residents were rescued from the damage, which was extensive. Elegant sprung into action suggested a personal adjuster to assist with insurance assessment and coordinated removal of debris, damaged furniture and other salvageable keepsakes. Construction teams from roofers, framers, brick masons, painters and finished carpenters turned our home from an environment of rubble into a fine finished product. The subcontractors used by Elegant were masters of their trade and were focused on fine detail. They were friendly, professional and concerned with our suggestions of what the final product would be. Dave and Buck said it could be the same or better and we were not surprised that it went far beyond our expectations. What ever my wife wanted she received a 100 percent statement from Dave and Buck. They are not only excellent contractors but through the months of construction, became friends. The Elegant Staff were significant in maintaining contact with us while solving everyday bank, insurance, payment of subcontractors and personal adjuster problems. They are also a group of new found friends. They treated us as part of their family. My wife and I love all of them and would highly recommend Elegant Restoration for any emergency construction and repair!!Robert Hale17:59 26 Sep 24Elegant Restoration responded the same day when I called about our basement flood. They did a great job removing the old carpet, drying and disinfecting our floors.They installed a beautiful new floor for us and handled all of the insurance paperwork.Gina Howard15:37 08 Aug 24I can’t say enough good things about this company! My house had a flood cause by a burst pipe under the kitchen sink while my daughter was home alone. By the time I got home at 6pm, water was throughout the upstairs and all in the basement. My plumber recommended Elegant Restoration. They arrived within an hour and a half to assess and begin work. The owner, Dave Chmura, sat with me and went over the process and checked my insurance for coverage. The team extracted the water that night and began the long 6mo restoration process. Ashley Mattiello in the office became my best friend haha, as we talked via text and email several times a week. She helped navigate my difficult Insurance Adjuster and coordinated all of the projects along with Buck Chestnut, the project manager. My house is now complete, with new floors, rebuilt cabinets, backsplash, and many other little details. The companies they use to pack out, All Pro and First Team were professional, compassionate and very helpful. When all of my hundreds of boxes were returned, All Pro even stayed and helped me unpack! I am very grateful that the process is over, but I will miss the amazing people I met along the way.Tim Smith14:16 28 Jan 24So glad we chose Elegant Restoration to completely remodel a bathroom for my aging mother-in-law. The entire process went flawlessly and we were constantly informed when each phase of the remodel was going to be completed. Safety was a big concern and multiple grab bars were installed to help prevent falls. We chose not to install shower doors at this time to make it easier for assistance while showering. So happy with the end result. Appreciate all the hard work by the team (Buck, Jamie, Gary & Becca) Few pictures (old, demo & finished remodel).Joe Joyner23:26 14 Dec 23We enlisted the services of Elegant Restoration after a fire broke out at our neighbors home and spread to our house (townhomes). The damage to our home was mostly water damage, with the exception of the roof. I contacted Elegant about doing the work to rebuild our house. Dave, the owner, met me at our home and we walked through the house to assess the damage while waiting for our insurance company to put an estimate together. Dave was honest and upfront about the timeline of when they could start and how long the project would take. When the estimate was received we met with Dave and Rebecca at the house and did another walk through of the house going over what would be done. Rebecca kept in contact with us by email as the project got underway, letting us know what would be happening and when. Buck was our project manager and he couldn't have been better. He explained things to us when we had questions and was very responsive when we wanted to change some things. The whole project took nearly a year, which we were prepared for following our initial meeting with Dave.We are completely satisfied with the work that was done. I would recommend Elegant Restoration to anyone who finds themselves in a situation like we experienced.Don McCreesh19:39 01 Nov 23We are extremely pleased with the new bathroom that we had Elegant Restoration do for us. The job was done quickly and with excellent craftsmanship. Everyone at Elegant was super to work with and always responsive. We definitely recommend them for anyone looking for a restoration or remodeling project.Martin Maren14:44 23 Jun 23It was a very complicated job with a hole in the side of the house requiring deck and wall and roof removal and replacement. Dave, Ashley and Rebecca were easy to work with, responsive with answers, details and the timeline for the work to be completed. All the workers were experienced and professional doing a 1st class job. We are more than happy with the results. The pictures don't do it justice.Ryan Prenger00:47 02 May 23I was referred to Elegant Restoration by a friend after my wife and I lost our home to a fire. From the very first call I made to them, they were always responsive with any and all questions we had about what to do with our situation. They showed up when they said they would. Their team was very thorough when it came to documenting the damage to our home and what the best way to go about getting it fixed would be. They provided great information and were very friendly to deal with. I would recommend Dave and his team to anyone who may find themselves in the same situation we were to get you back on your feet.Tim Battaglia17:57 12 Apr 23We woke up one morning to find about an inch of water throughout our basement and rising. Our sump pump stopped working overnight and water kept coming in due to a heavy ran the night before. Our first call was to Rebecca at Elegant Restoration. Rebecca coordinated everything. She had a crew to my house within an hour to start the cleanup and scheduled a plumber to replace the sump pump. Buck, Jamie, Gary, their crew, and Tyler the plumber were great. Once the pump was replaced and the water removed, they set up industrial fans to dry everything out. Unfortunately, the floor did not survive. The floors in the office area, storage, and laundry rooms all needed to be replaced. Although having Elegant continue with the repairs was optional, we stayed with them to coordinate the replacing of the floors and painting. Rebecca worked directly with our insurance company for the covered cleanup and repairs cost. Since this was the second time we went through this we opted to upgrade to a waterproof, glue-down vinyl floor. Rebecca, Ashley, and Samantha kept us informed of the progress until completion. We were extremely satisfied.lee snyder21:32 17 Mar 23The professionals at Elegant Restoration are fantastic - so responsive, effective, trustworthy, and pleasant! They came back to check on their work until the job was done, communicating with us every step of the way. Extra special thanks to Jaime who walked me through what he would be doing, and Cali as well - together they did a fantastic job of ensuring the cleanup and repair were complete! Highly recommend!!Amber Garcia01:13 15 Mar 23We had a flood from our sump pump in the basement. We called our insurance company and they gave us some names. We called Elegant Restoration and they came out same day to remove the water and dry out our basement so we didn’t get mold. From day one, this company was nothing but helpful throughout the whole process. We truly have appreciated everything they have done for us and getting our basement back to normal so quickly. Highly recommendedCarol Wingard00:08 02 Mar 23We have used elegant restoration 2 times for issues that needed reconciled. This company is very professional and definitely easy to work with. They take pride in their work. The workers are friendly, respectful and they do quality services. In the office, Ashley is very helpful and gracious when we call for clarifications and questions to answer. Communications with all employees have been very honest and pleasant. We highly recommend them 👌avery prkna00:58 18 Jan 23From the greeting with Ashley on the phone to meeting Dave and having him do an evaluation, everything was seamless. Both were very personable and Dave is incredibly knowledgeable. I felt very comfortable and especially grateful, I was able to home remedy my issues. I would not hesitate to refer Dave.Kathy Wing19:00 18 Dec 22Dave Chmura came to our home and did a complete home inspection including our garage. He was thorough and so honest about our problem. He referred us to someone he respected because our problem was not the type of problem his company handled. He was so nice and competent and spent an hour with us describing what he thought the problem could be and then refused payment for the time he spent at our house! In today’s world, who does this? I can’t recommend Elegant Restoration enough. Also, Ashley and the entire office staff was great!Mike Jarrard14:07 05 Dec 22We had a water leak that caused substantial damage. 2000 sq ft of flooring and multiple water spots on ceiling and walls. The owner Dave responded quickly and explained the entire process to me. His manager Ashley was my go to in the office. She responded to any requests my insurance co needed pretty much immediately. Dave and Ashley were a huge help with this project. I would recommend their services to anyone who needs a professional Water Restoration Co.Paul Schatz19:24 10 Nov 22The day my wife and I left to go away on vacation it was poring down rain. We checked the house and the water pump to make sure all was well. The next day we received a call from from our son. The sump pump had stopped working and the rec room was flooded. At the time we were in Aruba. Luckily my brother-in-law had worked with Elegant Restoration and got them in the house that same day. The issue at hand (aside from the house flooding) was our son was holding his wedding reception in our house in three weeks. When I returned home I met with Dave and he assured me he could meet that deadline. I am forever grateful to Dave and his crew. Everyone was courteous and professional. And the wedding reception came off as planned. I have turned to Elegant Restoration for other home maintenance issues . And will continue to trust in their crew and company.Paul SchatzSusan Voelker17:09 09 Nov 22I had positive experiences with all employees involved. Dave came over to my house within a day of my calling to request help. Jaime and Cali were pleasant and efficient. They explained everything they were going to do - and then did it. They cleaned up completely when they were finished. Ashley kept me informed about scheduling and scheduling problems. I'm still waiting for the actual restoration work but anticipate that it, too, will be top-notch.Christine Kreh17:14 04 Nov 22Elegant Restoration was just great and very professional. I have used them twice with water issues in my home. The remodeling that was done turned out great no complaints here. Their staff were polite and friendly and extremely helpful. Ashley who works at the front desk was always on task with any questions or concerns I had. She was great. Would recommend them and would use them again.

Highly recommend this Company.Lisa Mark15:17 03 Nov 22Hands down one of the most professional and skillfully competent companies our family has ever used. My Mom was referred to Elegant by the plumber after sustaining water damage within multiple levels and rooms. Elegant assessed the situation within a couple of hours and a plan was put into place. We had family weddings and out of town guests and Elegant made sure the process worked around us. We received emails and phone calls with next steps during the entire process. Everyone on their team, and I mean everyone, were professional and kind. Their communication with our elderly Mom was admirable. The workmanship was excellent. Great company.Joel Green14:15 02 Nov 22After a bad septic backup in our basement, we hired Elegant Restoration to mitigate damage. The company came in under 24 hours on a weekend (from the moment we realized there was a problem), and they removed all contaminated items and cleaned our basement completely. The people who completed the mitigation - Jaime, Cali, and Gary, were all excellent and very professional and it was greatly appreciated during a dismaying time. They were also faster than expected. We are very happy with the work.Tammy Jones21:22 01 Nov 22We have had several incidents in our home with the past two years. Elegant Restoration does great work as well as the subcontractors they hire. Shout out to Jamie, Buck, Rebecca & Custom Mechanical Very special shout-out to Ashley… always polite, friendly & knowledgeable and very responsive. Elegant worked with our homeowners insurer to facilitate & expedite two of our claims - a huge unexpected service. I wholeheartedly recommend Elegant Restoration - very professional & customer service oriented.Vera Howard14:48 01 Nov 22It's called Elegant for a reason. The Owner is the first on the scene providing expert advice and extremely Professional and Kind.

Thank you so very much!Clarke Langrall18:09 20 Apr 22Dave from Elegant Restoration was at our home the same day we called (the day after a fire). He promptly appraised the damage, suggested a full plan of repairs, and had his crew on site the following day. All employees and subcontractors were extremely skilled, knowledgeable, and cooperative, with great attitudes across the board.

Extremely happy with the services Elegant provided and highly recommend!Rose Valerio20:59 23 Mar 22I made 3 calls when the pipe burst. Elegant was the first to respond and had a crew there in a little more than an hour (during the NFL playoffs). They had the situation under control in a few hours and were back over the next 3 days removing wet materials, running fans to prevent mold, and continuing to secure the property. It took the insurance company 6 weeks to pay them and never once did they complain. This team rocks!! They knew what the process was and were extremely helpful in their guidance. I hope you do not need restoration services, but if you do...use Elegant.Abigayle Grace13:10 15 Mar 22Dave was on site within an hour of me finding my home flooded. Gary came soon after and was fast and efficient in getting everything pulled and starting to dry. I cannot thank them enough for how responsive they are and helpful during this process.

To add to this, I was out of town and Dave was able to still get everything done before I even got home. I highly recommend them.Brittani Elmco17:16 10 Feb 22Dave is a fantastic owner! He is so professional and he truly is here for YOU as the costumer! If I’m ever in another situation like the past one he will be my first call!

They were great. Came to the house within an hour of my call and evaluated the situation. To my relief I was told not to worry, the moisture issue would resolve itself. I would definitely recommend this company.donna burdette19:13 08 Nov 21What do you do when you receive a call at 3am from your tenant advising the hot water heater broke and you not only have water in your condo but the water has flooded the unit below? Call Elegant Restoration. From the first call it was nothing but professional and quick responses. There was a restoration crew on the premises very quickly and within hours they also had a great plumber there installing a new hot water heater. It was an absolute pleasure dealing with everyone from Elegant and I would recommend them to everyone and would definitely use them again.Bruce Woolman03:39 04 Sep 21We were overseas when we learned from our caretaker that we had experienced a water leak that had entered into the subfloor. Elegant Restoration was recommended by our caretaker and we initiated a mitigation project. Working via the internet from Asia we coordinated with the Elegant team to pack out the house and do a full mitigation reversing the effects of the leak. The Elegant team worked seamlessly with the insurer to organize the financing. And the work, which included many varying tasks, proceeded to a successful and highly satisfactory conclusion.We were so impressed by the mitigation effort that when the time came to enclose a second story porch to create an extra room we contracted with Elegant to do the job. Right through the worst of the pandemic Elegant's craftsmen worked safely and effectively to create a new space that is incorporated fully into the house. We cannot say enough good things about this outfit. They receive our highest praise and always exceeded our expectations.Anna Jeffers19:54 01 Sep 21Can't say enough good things about them. They show up on time and do great work. Everyone was very professional and congenial. I would call them again in a heartbeat.Elizabeth Jenkins18:51 01 Sep 21Loved using this company! My basement flooded twice, and they were our call both times. They restored our basement and was able to save a significant amount of what we had down there for an incredibly affordable price and were immediately responsive to our need. If our basement ever were to flood again, which hopefully will never happen lol, they will be our first call again!Jen Wachter16:05 23 Jul 21We had a water leak in our finished basement that caused a considerable amount of damage. Throughout the entire process, Elegant was a joy to work with. They went above and beyond our expectations to make sure our basement was just like it was before the leak.

Would recommend them to anyone who needs this type of service.Maxine Barshop20:17 05 Jun 21We thought we had an impossible dream, but still wanted to pursue our idea to have a laundry closet installed on our first floor rancher.Being that we did not want to deal with steps anymore, we contacted Elegant Restoration, Inc. to see if this was at all possible.In the past, we were told this could not be done, but Dave had a lot of good ideas on how to make this happen, and it did.From day one, everyone from Elegant Restoration, from their office staff to their team members were amazing. They were highly professional, polite, caring, knowledgeable and a pleasure to work with. They even completed this renovation ahead of schedule.We want to thank Dave and his team for a job well done, and for making my “impossible dream” a reality. We highly recommend Elegant Restoration for any problem solving or remodeling services.Dave’s outfit is really a 5+ star experience.Michael Whitehill14:42 29 Apr 21The Town of Centreville awarded remediation of fire damage to Elegant and was very pleased with the service, attention to detail, quality of work, and practiced facility in dealing with insurance matters.Tami Caggese23:27 24 Mar 21Our frustration and emotions about smoke damage done to our home from a pellet stove was rectified in the most efficient and timely manner in a workmanlike fashion. Their onsite communication was complimented by prompt return calls and/or emails to satisfy all our questions no matter how minute. We would never hesitate to use their services again nor hesitate to recommend them to others for the variety of services they offer. They are the Best!the Caggese Family Fallston MDRegina Weigand13:15 22 Mar 21Our family is extremely thankful to Elegant Restoration as they were instrumental in helping us finish installing a kitchen. We started the process a few years ago and then everything came to a halt when our grandson who was born perfectly healthy experienced a devastating injury right after birth that changed his life forever. The injury caused major brain damage and left him with multiple disabilities.We held full-time jobs, but we knew our grandson would require around the clock care and that one of us would have to stay home to care for him. With that said, financially we had not been able to finish the kitchen. When Dave and Julie of Elegant Restoration heard about our grandson, they made a commitment to help us finish our kitchen by pulling together some of their resources, and with donations of materials and people volunteering their time and talents to finish it we now have a kitchen that will accommodate our grandson’s special equipment.The Elegant Restoration team not only did fabulous work, but they were organized, cleaned up every day before they left our house and removed all debris at completion of the work. The office staff and the guys out in the field are terrific to work with. We highly recommend them!We are truly blessed and forever grateful for the generosity and caring hearts shown by everyone involved.Ron, Regina, Stephanie and KaidenTracey Rach20:20 21 Aug 20The team was very professional and examined our basement carefully for areas of high moisture readings. They were able to provide a detailed report with photos on their findings within a week and a half of inspection. In our particular case, no cleanup or restoration was required only a detailed inspection. I would highly recommend this company.MaryRose Slama13:58 14 Apr 20Yesterday, the rain storms produced about 2” of water in less than 15 hours. I called Elegant Restoration Inc and Dave answered the phoneand had one of his employees Buck immediately respond to the home in less than 15 minutes. Buck was able to diagnose and remedy the situation. They are professional, personable and great to work with.

Megan Lally20:28 25 Nov 19The team at Elegant Restoration, from those in the office, to those doing the "dirty" work, was wonderful to work with! Helpful, knowledgable and an absolute pleasure. They made you feel at ease during a stressful time. Everything from the painting, carpeting to ceiling was done extremly well. They handled things with our insurance to make it as easy as they could on us. I highly recommend working with them! A class act who does top notch work!C.L.16:38 21 Nov 19Fast and efficient service with good follow-up when there was an added problem with reinstalling a kitchen cabinet and under lighting. The water damage was extensive under the refrigerator and extended to the dishwasher side of the kitchen. There was a delay waiting for new replacement materials that no one could help, but we are happy our kitchen is back to our high standards again. Elegant did what was necessary to make it right.
Laurie Syphard15:42 12 Nov 19Dave and his crew at Elegant Restoration have helped us tremendously in multiple water/flood situations in the two homes we've owned in Harford County.
