We hired Steve’s team for a mold remediation and I couldn’t be more impressed with the mold remediation service I received. From start to finish, the entire process was handled with professionalism, care and was great value for the service received. Steve was prompt, responsive and conducted a thorough inspection to assess the extent of the mold problem. He explained the remediation process in detail and answered all of my questions. On the day of service, he arrived promptly, worked efficiently and thoroughly, and left the space cleaner than when he’d arrived. He even fixed my garage door sensor on his way out! If you’re looking for a crew to help with your mold issue, look no further!

Great experience. They were a great price but worked very fast. They dried all the water and then fixed the mold that grew, and also did the drywall repair. They were super responsive and hands off, I’m impressed.

Professional came out, fixed our sump pump which we didn’t realize had gotten knocked over, adjusted it so it wouldn’t lean over again. He was very courteous and knowledgable. Gave us great advice and didn’t even charge us for coming out as he did not think we needed serious work done at this time and that we were well set up for it to dry quickly. He had advice for the future and let us know he could come out quickly if the problem was not resolved by Monday. So appreciate the help!!
