We find the moisture that’s feeding it, show you how far it really goes, and give you a written estimate. No scare tactics, and no tear-outs quoted sight unseen.
Keep your phone nearby. If water is still spreading, shut off the main valve now, it’s usually in the basement or crawl space, on the street-facing wall.
And an honest answer: if it’s a small patch you can handle yourself, we’ll tell you. If lab testing is needed, we explain why, and it’s in the estimate.
The growth and the area around it, including the spots it usually spreads to.
Thermal imaging and moisture meters to find the water behind it.
The leak, grading or ventilation problem that’s feeding it.
How far it really goes and what it takes to fix, before any work starts.
Thermal imaging finds the water your walls are hiding.
Scrubbing releases spores. On drywall and wood, bleach mostly adds moisture.
Moving air carries spores into the rest of the house.
From the doorway, without getting close. It helps us and your insurer.
If water is still coming in, shut it off. That’s the first thing we’d fix anyway.
Asthma, allergies or a weak immune system change how we set up the work.
If it follows a burst pipe or leak, tell your insurer promptly. That keeps coverage open.
A high water table and cool, still air make them the number-one place we find mold.
Hidden supply-line drips and shower splash feed it inside walls and under cabinets.
Flashing leaks and condensation on cold exterior walls feed the back of the drywall.
Slow drips keep utility closets damp for months.
Cupped hardwood or a musty carpet pad usually means the subfloor stayed wet.
Roof leaks and winter ice dams soak insulation, and mold grows where nobody looks.
Free. Moisture mapping, the source found, and a written estimate.
Plastic and negative air pressure so spores don’t travel.
HEPA air scrubbing. Affected materials are removed and bagged.
Antimicrobial treatment, then clearance testing before the plastic comes down.
The leak, grading or ventilation problem behind it, or it comes back.
Inspection and written estimate
Certified firm
Our goal beyond your deductible
What we find
Growth traced to its moisture source, not just wiped.
Containment first
Plastic and negative air before a single cut is made.
Source removal
Affected material comes out, not painted over.
Treatment
HEPA filtration running through the whole job.
Coverage almost always comes down to cause and timing. Mold that follows a sudden water loss you reported promptly, like a burst pipe, is usually covered. Mold from slow leaks, everyday humidity or deferred maintenance usually isn’t. We tell you honestly where yours is likely to land.
We document cause and timing, write the scope in Xactimate, and bill your insurer directly. Beyond your deductible, our goal is $0 from you.
