We had mold after a slow leak under the sink. They inspected it, explained the plan, and left the space dry and clean.
Clear pricing, no surprises. The mold remediation took exactly as long as they said it would.

Inspect
We assess how far floodwater traveled and which materials absorbed it, room by room.
Contain
We section off affected areas so cleanup work doesn't spread contamination to dry parts of the home.
Remove
Water-damaged drywall, flooring, and insulation are removed, since flood water often can't be fully sanitized in place.

Yes. Our crew follows the IICRC S520 standard for mold remediation, the same framework insurers and inspectors recognize across Middlesex County.
