Mike and Josh arrived right on time and were very professional, amiable and hard workers! They couldn’t have been nicer or more helpful!
Cynthia Delfino, Google
The Surv moving team was fantastic! They staged our house perfectly and completed everything in just 90 minutes. The team was professional, efficient, careful, and incredibly organized.
Theresa Gallagher, Google
Another successful project completed with the help of Surv. The worker finished all work within the two hours arranged. Surv continues to be my go-to for odd jobs: reliable, efficient, trustworthy and conscientious.
Negative Surv Providence Reviews
M Holmes, Google
The workers were kind, but the move was under-estimated. They left before finishing, with my belongings on the lawn, driveway, and inside the house.
Chris M, Google
The movers were great, but they arrived without moving equipment: no dolly, cart, or protective blankets. I had to provide tools, which made the move stressful.
Heidi Fraitzl, Google
The movers damaged paint, drywall, and plaster while moving furniture. They also failed to bring the quoted tote boxes, and a promised refund had not arrived 1.5 months later.
Neutral Surv Providence Reviews
Terry Janetatos, Google
The guys were great and the work was fine, but it was way too expensive. The work included sanding a small deck and clearing debris from a small backyard.
David Dess, Google
Two friendly individuals arrived on time for a shed demo. Neither had safety equipment, and they left broken glass, nails, and wood debris behind.
Mark Childress, Google
The packer came to pack dishes without packing paper. Only one packer showed up, although we had reserved two people. Not a good experience.
