Rated 4.9 by Lake Tapawingo-area neighbors
Great communication from the first call. They tested the air, handled the removal, and rechecked the space before signing off.
The mold cleanup itself was great. The only hiccup was a reschedule due to weather.
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.
