Professionally trained technicians are meticulous in preserving what can be kept while also ensuring removal of all traces of mold.

What to look for when hiring a Mold Remediation Company

  • The Right Price Trustworthy mold removal companies will not be charged for work that is not needed. They carefully inspect homes and suggest works necessary in order to bring the home to an healthy condition. Be wary of firms that could increase prices or charge pad fees.
  • The Right Ethics Find reputable companies in the "location" and surrounding areas. They should offer fair prices and only recommend work that is necessary for you to restore your home and ensure family safety. Companies that are reputable stand behind their work with 100%.
  • The Right Time NOW! If you notice mold and you're concerned about it, you'll want it gone quickly. Call for someone to start the drying process and pinpoint the cause, and begin testing to determine how to fix the problem.
  • The Best Practices Be sure the mold removal company employs safe methods to protect your family. For example, appropriate methods like HEPA vacuuming for dust/spore control are always preferable over misting, which could introduce an increase in moisture into the space.
  • The Credentials You Need Look for technicians certified in the areas of WRT (Water Restoration Technician), ASD (Applied Structural Drying), and AMRT (Applied Microbial Remediation Technician).
  • The Right Team Professional teams operate in accordance with the highest standards at all times. From the very first phone call up to the post-remediation inspection the team should treat every client as family and every home as if it is their own.
