“In January of this year I had a flood in [my home] resulting in a great deal of water damage. My insurance company contacted DKI-Pro Pacific, and from the moment the Project Manager arrived I felt I was in good hands. He came promptly, took charge in professional and reassuring manner and kept the job moving steadily from one phase to the next. It is becoming more and more rare to find pleasant polite workmen who do a good job and take pride in their work, and instead of the nightmare I had envisioned, I was surprised to find myself actually enjoying the restoration process!”
