Reviews
Rated 4.9 by Dorchester-area neighbors
Fast to respond and easy to reach. The technicians were tidy, respectful of our home, and explained what caused the growth so it would not come back.
After a pipe leak we had mold in the crawl space. They sealed the area, removed the mold, and left everything spotless.

Local knowledge
Rental Property Mold Remediation for Dorchester, MA homes
Rental Property Mold Remediation in Dorchester tends to start the same way mold does across Suffolk County: heavy rain and seasonal flooding pushing water toward foundations and crawl spaces. When that moisture sits for even a day or two, mold takes hold, and that is when homeowners from Ashmont, Grove Hall, Savin Hill and the rest of Dorchester call us.
We handle rental property mold remediation for Dorchester the right way. We find and fix the moisture source first, because mold always returns if the water problem is left behind, then we contain the area and remove the mold safely.
Our team is based in Auburndale, about 15 minutes from our Auburndale base, so we can usually reach a Dorchester home the same day. Our methods follow public guidance from the EPA and the CDC on handling indoor mold safely.

Good to know
Rental Property Mold Remediation in Dorchester, MA: common questions
Are landlords responsible for mold in a rental unit?
Massachusetts law generally expects rental housing to be kept habitable, and significant mold tied to a moisture problem can be part of that. We aren't attorneys, so for specific legal questions we'd recommend consulting one.
Do you provide documentation for landlord-tenant disputes?
Yes, we document our findings and the work performed, and we offer optional lab testing for more objective documentation if needed.
Do you handle multi-unit rental properties?
Yes, we work with landlords and property managers on both single rental homes and multi-unit buildings around the Auburndale area.
Do I need to leave my Dorchester home during the work?
Usually no. We seal the work area under negative air, so most of the Dorchester home stays livable. For larger jobs we will tell you if it is better to step out for a day.
Can tenants request a mold inspection?
Tenants can raise a concern with their landlord or property manager, who can then schedule an inspection or remediation with our team.
Can you work in an occupied unit?
Yes, we contain the work area carefully to limit disruption when tenants remain in the unit during remediation.
