About Elizabeth Baresh:


When my son, Matthew was 7 years old, he wrote an essay about me and said, amongst other things, that I was, “careful and nice.” We laugh about that…but it is true. I treat my client’s emergencies as if they were my own. I am continually learning in this industry and love what I do. I love gnomes and pretty much anything sparkly and pink. I’ve been known to show up at a water loss in some pretty fun, girly footwear, but I don’t care – the client comes first! I wish I could garden, but I can’t. I’ve thoroughly enjoyed watching Ozark, Yellowstone (Hi Rip!) and Breaking Bad. I believe in throwing kindness like confetti. Life is too short – go live it!!

We had a electrical fire in our kitchen and it caused lots of smoke and odor damage. A very good friend of mine recommended PDQ Restoration. Tim and Elizabeth came out that afternoon and were extremely professional and detailed on showing me how far the soot had traveled and explaining the restoration process. They installed machines that night to help eliminate the odor and clean the air. The next day they had 9 people cleaning everything! They spoke to our adjuster and handled everything. Both the adjuster and I were very happy with how they performed the difficult job. Their communication throughout this process was exceptional. I highly recommend them.

Excellent work ethic and very thorough. My house had a fire and we didn't know how we could remove the soot and fire smell. These guys came in, wasn't pushy, have me the options and completed the job. Great work.

This review is a little late, but I can't say enough good things about these Folks. I'm a professional plumber and have referred many a customer to them, but there came a time when "Hurricane" Ida flooded my house. I contacted the owner like I would about a customer but told her it was my own house, and she put me in touch with someone immediately who went absolutely above and beyond to make sure I got the right equipment to get my own home dried out. I had enough water that my pool table was completely submerged, so this wasn't a minor deal, but I can't believe just HOW ON TOP OF THINGS they were to make sure I was properly taken care of. I recommend them to all of my customers when they have an issue, and I wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone reading this review. STELLAR SERVICE, and I'm in the service business. Thanks again Liz!

PDQ responded immediately to my emergency call for a drain line backup. They immediately went to work to cleanup and prevent further moisture damage. They are clearly knowledgeable professionals with excellent customer service skills.

Hopatcong, NJ

Posted on PDQ Fire & Water Damage Restoration

In May 2019, we had moisture damage in our walls caused by window Air Conditioners in old windows. The primary concern was the black fuzzy growth on the porch ceiling that appeared to likely be mold. Concern; especially, because two family members were less than two weeks from having major surgeries with lengthy in-home recoveries. Tim and Elizabeth came out immediately to evaluate. Tim doubted it was mold, but we needed definite confirmation. He helped with a recommendation of a third-party tester. Thankfully, Tim's visual assessment was correct. Before the results, we had the reassurance from PDQ that if needed, they were there and ready to work to make our home ready in time for the convalescing patients. Their willingness to provide prompt and speedy professional attention to our problem, as well as their honesty and concern and human decency make it apparent; they are who I want working in my home if needed. Happily, I recommend PDQ! Thank you, Tim and Elizabeth!

Clifton, NJ

Posted on PDQ Fire & Water Damage Restoration

There is NO QUESTION that PDQ is the best of the best when it comes to remediation. They were on site almost immediately after the fire in our townhouse in 2017, and they did an absolutely incredible job. The cleanup was thorough, and Tim and Elizabeth were so understanding and supportive after such a traumatic experience. Recently, we discovered that during the remediation, they made a slight error, and they sent another tech - Chris - to fix it. He was incredibly responsive, and happy to answer any and all questions regarding the fix. He was meticulous in my house - laid down a runner so as to not dirty my floor with his work boots, and vacuumed up everything afterwards. The job was done perfectly - soup to nuts. PDQ is truly 10 out of 10 - their work, and all their techs - would recommend them heartily to anybody!

Morristown, NJ

Posted on PDQ Fire & Water Damage Restoration

I am definitely one of those people that will only write a remarkable review if it is truly deserved. So here it is...I moved into a home two weeks ago, three days later the main pipe backed up which resulted open drain throughout the house being a mess. It was a Sunday and had to call a Mr. Rooter Man to make an emergency home visit. After he came and drain the pipe, a huge mess was left. I called several different places and everyone wanted a very highly priced amount just to come out and give an estimate. I then came across PDQ and all I could say is, they were literally and figuratively a breath of fresh air! Elizabeth answered the phone and was extremely pleasant and very comforting. Not only was there no charge for coming out for an estimate but the representative John was at my front door within the hour! John who is not only so knowledgeable, but assessed the problem efficiently and thoroughly. He went through a very full description of what needed to be done then gave me a very descriptive detailed diagnosis of what needed to be done going forward. He provided his personal cell phone number with me so if I had any additional questions or concerns he was always reachable. Even when he was on another job his callbacks were quick and prompt. He was actually very helpful with providing other services that were needed to fix and complete this problem. I would absolutely 150% recommend this company to anyone that is in need of their services.Their staff is not only personable, knowledgeable but are quick working! The other companies had me waiting 2 to 3 days before they could even come to give an estimate. Thanks Elizabeth and John, it was a not so much of a good thing having your pipes back up, but you guys made it so much easier to get through!

If I could leave more than 5 Stars I would! I had a pipe leak in my basement overnight and woke up to a flooded basement. Called the plumber and had the pipe fixed and then called PDQ Restoration about having them come out and clean up the water. They were there literally 20 minutes after I called and got right to work. PDQ Restoration is run how a business should be. They are punctual, neat, friendly, reasonable, and willing to do whatever it takes to make sure you are completely satisfied. This is tough to find in this day and age in my opinion. Some businesses are out to make money and get it done as fast as possible without caring about customer satisfaction. PDQ stayed around as long as it took to make sure all of the water and moisture was 100% gone and made sure we were 100% happy. My experience with them could not have been better. I would recommend them to anyone in a heartbeat! Thanks again guys!
