The mold remediation process in Eliot, ME
Inspect
Technicians check affected rooms, log moisture readings, and trace growth to its source before providing a written scope.
Contain
Plastic containment and negative air pressure keep mold spores from spreading to clean areas of the home during work.
Remove

Dry
Commercial air movers and dehumidifiers lower moisture levels to remove the conditions mold needs to grow.
