About
Please note booking through Thumbtack incurs a fee. We prefer a call or website submission. Thanks!
We offer emergency water cleanup 24/7. Just call our emergency service hotline.
We’re a local Thumbtack Top Pro Award winner 3 years in a row and we specialize in keeping your family safe by focusing on water damage cleanup, water restoration repair and mold remediation. We aren’t plumbers, carpet or duct cleaners that do water damage restoration and mold removal on the side.
Would you like to know what separates us from the competition?
• Customer focused, we work for you not the insurance company. We’re not on any insurance preferred vendor lists, we’re growing our business by offering quality over quantity.
• We use the same estimating software as the insurance companies- All pricing has been pre determined before your estimate was even entered. We enter the square footage of what needs to be done and the software develops the price. This eliminates most of the negotiating with insurance companies.
• Honest- We don’t use scare tactics to win jobs. We’ll be one of the few companies that tell you mold testing isn’t fool proof. We’d also like everyone to know that dead or inactive mold can cause the same health affects as alive. It isn’t like asbestos where if you don’t disturb it’s safe to leave in place. The goal of remediation is to remove the mold not kill it.
Most of the time mold testing is unnecessary, the CDC and other governmental agencies do not recommend mold testing. They recommend having mold removed as soon as you see it so don’t let a shady contractor trick you into services you don’t need.

Very helpful in a stressful situation. A pipe from under my sink broke and was leaking water over my kitchen tile to hardwood flooring. I wasn't sure if I should file an insurance claim because I have a high deductible. I called Kingsley for a free estimate. They arrived at my home in Columbia within an hour of my call and came prepared. The water was sucked up and these big machines set up starting the drying process the same night. I highly recommend Kingsley for any waterdamage needs.

Highly dependable, knowledgeable, professional and respectful company. Donte and the team did an excellent job with the mold treatment in my home. The work was completed in a timely manner and they honored my request to come early to remove the equipment. Everything went smoothly from the beginning to end. Charges were much less than previously quoted. Kingsley desires 10 stars.

Our home was destroyed in the flood in Baton Rouge a month ago. We've never been through anything like that & were clueless about what to do, who to call & what prices would be fair. Thankfully we found Kingsley! From the first contact here on Thumbtack, I felt I'd reached the right company - the conversation felt warm & genuine! Then when I met Mike I knew it for a fact! My husband even said he liked him (based on what I told him) before they met!
Mike is very honest, kind & caring. He went beyond the scope of his job to make sure we were satisfied & the work was done efficiently. I'm confident that our home is mold free, clean & DRY! Before Kingsley, I couldn't be inside for more than a few minutes - it was hard to breathe because of the mold (allergies). Now I have no problems working inside! Thanks so much! We'll definitely refer Kingsley to anyone who needs their services!

For anyone wondering who to go with for mold removal....go with Kingsley! Our basement was completely covered in mold and I thought there was no recovering. Kingsley came in and completely removed all signs of mold. We were able to save our drywall and built ins. It was amazing! Mike is also very responsive and always kept me up to date on everything that was being done. He led me through the process, answered all my many questions, and left me feeling very confident about the handling of our situation. I couldn't be more satisfied!

Very fast response. They responded within minutes and were at my house within a couple hours. The mold testing is complete and we should have the results in a couple days. Where else can you get service like that? If it is mold we will absolutely use them for the cleanup.
