If you think you may have a mold issue in your home or business, please give us a call! Our first step is always to ask questions and try to get a better sense of the potential problem. Many times we can give a customer guidance on the phone and save them from having to have a contractor come out for an inspection.
In the cases where you do need professional help, our IICRC Certified technicians are available, sometimes the same day.
Until help arrives, below are some tips on not only what to do but what not to do.
