We noticed a smell coming from under the sink and figured it was just old cabinet wood. There was actually a slow leak that had been going for a while. They caught it before it reached the subfloor and were quick about the whole thing.

Reviews
Rated 4.9 by Newton Lower Falls-area neighbors
The crew showed up on time, contained the work area, and showed me the moisture readings before and after. Tidy, careful work.
Our basement smelled musty for months. Their crew found the source, treated everything, and the smell is finally gone.
Our process
Our kitchen mold remediation process in Newton Lower Falls, MA
Inspect
We check under the sink, behind and under the fridge, and around the dishwasher for signs of moisture and staining.
Trace the leak
We identify whether the source is plumbing, an appliance line, or condensation buildup before removing anything.
Remove
Affected cabinet material, subfloor, or drywall is removed; salvageable surfaces are cleaned and treated.
Dry
Cabinets and flooring are dried thoroughly, since cabinet interiors trap moisture longer than open rooms.
Verify
We recheck moisture levels before closing cabinets back up or replacing removed material.

Good to know
Kitchen Mold Remediation in Newton Lower Falls, MA: common questions
How do I know if my kitchen leak has caused mold?
Warped or swollen cabinet wood, a persistent musty smell near the sink or fridge, or discoloration on cabinet backs are the main signs. If any of these are present, it's worth having the area checked.
Will I need new cabinets?
It depends on the material and how long they were exposed to moisture. Particleboard bases usually need replacement once saturated; solid wood can often be cleaned and treated instead.
Can a refrigerator water line really cause mold?
Yes, a loose or cracked ice-maker line fitting can leak slowly behind or under the fridge for a long time before anyone notices, since that area isn't checked often.
How do you keep the mold from coming back after kitchen mold remediation?
We fix the moisture source first, not just the mold, then dry the structure and recheck it. That is what keeps mold from returning to a Newton Lower Falls home.
Do you fix the leak too?
We identify the likely source of moisture, but plumbing or appliance repair itself is outside our scope. We'll tell you clearly what needs fixing so you can get it addressed.
Is it safe to keep cooking in my kitchen during remediation?
In many cases, yes, especially if the affected area is limited to under-sink cabinetry or a small section. We'll walk you through what to expect based on the specific scope of your job.
Will my insurance cover kitchen mold remediation in Newton Lower Falls?
It depends on the cause. When the mold follows a sudden, covered event, there is often coverage. We bill your carrier directly and document the loss so your Newton Lower Falls claim moves.
Do you serve Newton Lower Falls?
Yes. We cover all of Newton Lower Falls, including West Newton, Newton Upper Falls, Newton, and the rest of the Newton Lower Falls area. We are based in Auburndale, about 5 minutes from our Auburndale base, and answer our own phone around the clock.
