Rated 5 by Oyster Bay Cove-area neighbors
Called about a musty smell and they walked me through every step before starting. The area was contained properly and the odor was gone when they finished.
Professional job on the attic mold. Price was a bit higher than the first quote, but no regrets.

Good to know
HVAC & Air Duct Mold Remediation in Oyster Bay Cove, NY: common questions
How do I know if my ductwork has mold?
A musty smell that gets stronger when the HVAC system runs, or visible growth around vent covers, are the most common signs.
Will you fix the moisture causing the mold?
We identify the moisture source, whether it's condensation, a crawl space leak, or humidity issues, and either address it directly or coordinate with an HVAC technician.
Do I need to replace ductwork with mold in it?
It depends on the material and extent of growth. Metal ductwork can often be cleaned, while some flexible or fiberglass-lined duct may need replacement.
Do I need to leave my Oyster Bay Cove home during the work?
Usually no. We seal the work area under negative air, so most of the Oyster Bay Cove home stays livable. For larger jobs we will tell you if it is better to step out for a day.
Can I clean duct mold myself?
Ductwork is hard to access safely and cleaning it without proper containment can push spores through the whole house, so it's best left to a professional crew.
Does a humidifier make duct mold more likely?
It can, since evaporative coolers add significant humidity to the air moving through the ductwork, especially if the system isn't well maintained.
Will my insurance cover hvac & air duct mold remediation in Oyster Bay Cove?
It depends on the cause. When the mold follows a sudden, covered event, there is often coverage. We bill your carrier directly and document the loss so your Oyster Bay Cove claim moves.
Do you serve Oyster Bay Cove?
Yes. We cover all of Oyster Bay Cove, including Cove Neck, East Norwich, Centre Island, and the rest of the Oyster Bay Cove area. We are based in Oyster Bay, about 5 minutes from our Oyster Bay base, and answer our own phone around the clock.
