A GRADE Property

I wanted to take my time, because i just didn't want to do a simple review for what this company did.. we had a fire in October of 2024 which internally destroyed a good part of my home, it was a very cold day, and with had no place to go.. Christian the owner and CEO was one of the first people to reach out to us, offering their services, not only did A Grade came thru for us, but they also took care of everything, from finding us a place to stay to dealing with the insurance company in every aspect, and also finalizing the very last details of my home restoration, and have they done an excellent job!!! yes they have!!

Grade A lived up to their name. Nine months ago I was in a very precarious position. My family house had burnt down and I didn’t know where to start. Grade A stepped right in and helped me through the entire process. John and Christian are fantastic. Corey is next level with his professionalism and his attention to detail. I would suggest anyone looking to get work done to stop and hire them today!

On April 26th 2024 3am, my home of 36 years burned to the ground (all due to an accidental non extinguished cigarette) I and my 10 yo dog "Elvis" raced outside, with ABSOLUTELY nothing, but me in my bathrobe, shoeless. Crying on my neighbors steps, I pulled out of my pocket a tissue, realizing that TISSUE was the only thing I owned, literally. After several hours the firemen, police, and the Fire Chief telling me the house was a TOTAL LOSS. Since April 1988 and I was 29yo, that HOME was all I had known. Hopatcong Mayor Marie Galate reached out to me, since she had a "House Fire" herself some years back, and put me in touch with the company that helped her, called, A-Grade property restoration. I was QUITE numb and in shock as well. The RED CROSS helped greatly, with me. I do have many friends and neighbors watching out for me as well. I met with Christian at A-Grade, WHAT had transpired the NEXT several months was truly MIRACULOUS. I'm NOW a 66 yo woman alone on permanent disability "3 Back surgeries over the past 10 yrs" with zero nearby family, most friends deceased. What A-Grade did was take EXCELLENT CARE of a broken SHELL, and slowly bring her BACK. Their STAFF thru the overlooking of Christian, IMMEDIATELY, found me DOG friendly SHELTER, I literally had NOTHING, NO EYE glasses, not any of my 14 daily MEDICATIONS. NO CLOTHES, $$$$. IT was ALL through GOD, these (strangers) at A-GRADE were all caring people, immediately made me feel safe and secure. I was still TERRIFIED of course, but they all were calm, spoke soft and continued to reassure me that I ONLY lost things, not my LIFE or DOG.
I knew 17yrs of CATHOLIC School definitely helped as well !! Slowly days turned to weeks, then months. I wasn't bogged down with any STRESSORS, they dealt with my Home Owners Ins, even spoke to neighbors who had damage due to the Propane Tank blowing up into my neighbor's shed. I cried on and off, mainly worrying about the unknown, but then a WONDERFUL sound OCCURRED, the banging of hammers and nails !!!!!!!
M-G Builders, I renamed Manny's crew and business "MIRACLE FROM GOD" Lovely Hopatcong with all it's ROCK, prevented getting machinery to REMOVE the old small parts of the house that was left , 8-10 men and 2 days of HORRENDOUS hard work. Each man with ONLY BUCKETS, took away the BURNT remnants. Then the FRAMING, ROOFING, SIDING,building STAIRS continued NON STOP. A few HEADACHES with Town inspection, Permits etc...... BUT the FINAL MIRACLE 4/15/2025, We, me and ELVIS moved back HOME, DORI, Frederick, CORY, MG Builders, Manny, Seth, Juan, Santiago, GOD put all these BLESSED people in my LIFE for this PURPOSE. I'm living at the PALACE of BUCKNELL TRAIL, Hopatcong, NJ. thank You ALL !!

Christian and his team were incredible. After a storm flooded our basement, they arrived within 12 hours to remove all the heavy items, dry the area, open the walls. They were trustworthy, kind, efficient, and affordable. I highly recommend A Grade Restoration to anyone needing emergent help in their home or business!

I would give A Grade the highest mark. Their work was excellent. They were on time and on top of any thing that had to be done. The team was so responsive, so polite and so helpful. It was a very big job as we had a tree fall on our house during hurricane Ida and we had water damage as well. It was a very big job and I couldn’t be more pleased. I cannot say enough nice things about the team. They left the house in great condition just like it was before the storm. They did little things when I didn’t have to ask and always left the house clean in spite of all the work.
As I said originally, I would recommend them very highly.
