Reviews
Rated 5 by Hicksville-area neighbors
Fast to respond and easy to reach. The technicians were tidy, respectful of our home, and explained what caused the growth so it would not come back.
The mold cleanup itself was great. The only hiccup was a reschedule due to weather.

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.

Can I stay in my home during flood mold cleanup?
It depends on how much of the home was affected. We'll walk you through what areas need to be closed off during the work.

Coverage depends on your specific policy and the source of the water. We document everything thoroughly to support your claim.
Do I need to leave my Hicksville home during the work?
Usually no. We seal the work area under negative air, so most of the Hicksville home stays livable. For larger jobs we will tell you if it is better to step out for a day.

Yes, flood water can carry contaminants, so porous materials that got wet are often removed rather than dried and reused.
