The crew showed up on time, contained the work area, and showed me the moisture readings before and after. Tidy, careful work.
Professional containment, HEPA vacuuming, the whole process was textbook. Worth hiring certified pros.
Our process

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.

Water-damaged drywall, flooring, and insulation are removed, since flood water often can't be fully sanitized in place.
Dry
Industrial air movers and dehumidifiers dry the structure to normal moisture levels.

Flood & Storm Mold Cleanup in Newtonville, MA: common questions
How fast should I call after a flood?
As soon as it's safe. Mold risk climbs quickly once materials stay wet, so the sooner cleanup starts, the more of the structure can typically be saved.
Can I stay in my home during flood mold cleanup?
It depends on how much of the home was affected. We'll walk you through what areas need to be closed off during the work.
Will my homeowners policy cover storm-related mold?
Coverage depends on your specific policy and the source of the water. We document everything thoroughly to support your claim.
Do I need to leave my Newtonville home during the work?
Usually no. We seal the work area under negative air, so most of the Newtonville home stays livable. For larger jobs we will tell you if it is better to step out for a day.
Is flood water mold cleanup different from a regular leak?
Yes, flood water can carry contaminants, so porous materials that got wet are often removed rather than dried and reused.
