Client Testimonials

Geoffrey Blanchette

★★★★★

“I am a project manager for a major utility company in Boston. I have solely used Confined Space Rescue Solutions at least 5 days a week for
the past 13 years. I have never had a single issue with their management or highly trained rescue personnel, who are all experienced firemen
and/or EMT's and paramedics. Due to the nature of utility work, I continually run into emergency situations where I need a rescue crew on
site 10 minutes ago. They not only have come through for me 100% of the time; but they've come through within the hour. I need a crew at
the last minute on a holiday? They're there. I need a crew on a Friday morning at 2AM? They're there. Christmas morning (which has
happened), they're there. At this point, they are virtually a part of our company and work regularly with all of our people. I have never had a
single complaint from any of my guys about a crew CPRS has sent us. I also use them for all our confined space rescue training, fire watch and
fire detail training. A 5 Star company.”

Chris Hayward

★★★★★

“CSRS provided the experienced crew and equipment I needed for my sewer entry. The guys were communicative, had great attitudes, and were committed to doing the job safely. Coordinating the job with Art was easy and he was very responsive. I would recommend CSS over and over again.”

Tim Reardon

“Arthur and his team have been an exceptional asset to our companies needs. They are true professionals who go above and beyond. They do
an incredible job at assessing any type of situation, putting forth a plan and then executing it. In addition to first hand rescue services they
even provided our employees with certifiable training(s) and did on-site rescue demonstrations for all crew members. They are great at what
they do and I highly recommend them for all of your needs.”
