You walk into your home and breathe easily. No more wondering if that musty smell is making your kids sick. No more worrying about what’s growing behind your walls.
That’s what happens when mold gets handled right the first time. Your basement stops smelling like a swamp. Your family stops getting those mysterious headaches and runny noses that only happen at home. Your property value stays protected.
We don’t just spray some bleach and call it done. We find where the moisture is coming from, eliminate the mold at its source, and make sure it can’t come back. Because you deserve to feel confident about the air your family breathes every day.
We’ve been protecting Huntingdon Valley families for over 15 years. We know this area – the older homes with their quirky basements, the way moisture moves through these beautiful but aging properties, and exactly which spots need the most attention.
Jeff, our owner, personally handles every inspection. He’s the guy who shows up at your door, not some random technician who’s never seen your neighborhood before. When contractors and real estate agents in Huntingdon Valley need mold work done, they call us.
We understand that discovering mold in your home feels overwhelming. That’s why we take time to explain what we’re seeing, what it means for your family’s health, and exactly how we’ll fix it.
First, we inspect every inch of your property – not just the obvious spots. We use moisture meters to check inside walls and specialized equipment to find hidden problems that other companies miss. Because surface mold is usually just the tip of the iceberg.
Next, we take samples and send them to an independent lab for analysis. You get detailed results within 24 hours that tell you exactly what type of mold you’re dealing with and how much of it there is. No guesswork, no scare tactics.
Then we create a containment zone to prevent spores from spreading to clean areas of your home. We use HEPA-filtered negative air pressure systems – the same technology hospitals use – to keep your family safe during removal. Finally, we eliminate the mold using proven methods and fix the moisture problem that caused it in the first place.

Your mold remediation includes thorough moisture source identification, professional containment setup, complete mold removal, and preventative recommendations. We handle the insurance paperwork and work directly with your adjuster to make the process as smooth as possible.
In Huntingdon Valley’s older homes, we often find mold in crawl spaces, behind finished basement walls, and in attic areas where roof leaks have gone unnoticed. Our local experience means we know exactly where to look and how to access these problem areas without unnecessary damage to your property.
We also provide detailed documentation of our work, including before and after photos, air quality test results, and a clear explanation of what we found and how we fixed it. This documentation protects your property value and gives you confidence that the job was done right.
We offer same-day inspections for Huntingdon Valley residents. When you call in the morning, we can typically be at your property that afternoon or evening. This matters because mold can double in size every 24-48 hours under the right conditions.
During our initial visit, we’ll assess the situation, take air quality samples if needed, and give you a clear action plan. You’ll have lab results back within 24 hours, so you know exactly what you’re dealing with and can make informed decisions about next steps. We understand that mold concerns are stressful, especially when family health is involved.
A mold inspection is a visual examination where we look for signs of mold growth, moisture problems, and conditions that could lead to mold. We use moisture meters, infrared cameras, and other tools to find hidden issues behind walls or in hard-to-reach areas.
Mold testing involves collecting air or surface samples that get analyzed in a laboratory. The lab identifies exactly what types of mold are present and in what concentrations. We typically recommend testing when we find visible mold, when someone in the home has unexplained health symptoms, or when you’re buying a property and want to know the baseline air quality.
Both services work together to give you a complete picture of your indoor air quality situation.
Mold remediation costs typically range from $1,500 to $6,000 for most residential projects in our area, depending on the size and complexity of the problem. Small bathroom mold issues might cost $500-800, while whole-basement remediation could run $3,000-5,000.
The final cost depends on several factors: how much area is affected, what materials need to be removed and replaced, how difficult the area is to access, and whether we need to address underlying moisture problems like plumbing leaks or foundation issues. We provide detailed written estimates with no hidden fees.
Many homeowners insurance policies cover mold remediation when it results from a covered loss like a burst pipe. We work directly with insurance companies and can help you navigate the claims process.
In most cases, yes. We set up proper containment barriers with plastic sheeting and negative air pressure systems to prevent mold spores from spreading to unaffected areas of your home. This allows you to stay in clean areas while we work on the contaminated zones.
However, if the mold covers a very large area, involves your HVAC system, or if someone in your household has severe mold allergies or respiratory issues, we might recommend temporary relocation during the active removal phase. We’ll discuss this during our initial assessment and help you make the best decision for your family’s safety.
The containment process typically takes a few hours to set up, and most residential jobs are completed within 2-4 days.
The main culprit is moisture combined with organic materials like wood, drywall, or carpet. In Huntingdon Valley’s older homes, we commonly see mold from basement moisture issues, roof leaks, plumbing problems, and poor ventilation in bathrooms and crawl spaces.
The area’s climate creates ideal conditions for mold growth, especially during humid summer months and when heating systems create condensation in winter. Many homes here have stone foundations that can allow moisture intrusion, and older windows and doors may not seal properly.
Prevention involves controlling moisture at its source: fixing leaks promptly, improving ventilation, using dehumidifiers in basements, and ensuring proper drainage around your foundation. We provide specific recommendations based on what we find during your inspection.
We recommend post-remediation testing by an independent third party to verify that mold levels have returned to normal ranges. This eliminates any conflict of interest and gives you objective confirmation that the work was completed properly.
Successful remediation means mold spore counts in your home are similar to or lower than outdoor levels. You should notice improvements in air quality, elimination of musty odors, and resolution of any mold-related health symptoms your family was experiencing.
We provide documentation of all our work, including before and after photos, air quality test results, and details about moisture control measures we implemented. This documentation is valuable for insurance purposes and protects your property value if you decide to sell in the future.
