    Tech was very knowledgeable and professional. Well pleased with the service. I had difficulty trying to get into the system to do my review while tech was here but I can assure you we tried for a bit while he was here. It just wouldn't let me in to do the survey.

    Common Questions About Mold Remediation

    A mold infestation can be an absolute nightmare. That’s why The Basement Doctor is here to help by answering your questions about mold and the mold remediation process.

    How Much Does Mold Remediation Cost?

    The cost of mold remediation will always depend on the severity of the mold infestation and the size of your home. At The Basement Doctor, we provide FREE mold inspections, so you know the costs upfront.

    Will The Mold Come Back After You Remove It?
    Any mold remediation project should always include plans to mitigate moisture, the cause of all mold problems. This often involves repairs to the outside and/or inside of the house to improve grading and drainage.

    Repairs to the inside may include installing a vapor barrier, a dehumidifier, or encapsulating your crawl space. These additional services are vital to eliminating the conditions that cause re-infestation.

    Can I Remove Mold Myself, Or Should I Hire A Professional?
    In our experience, when a homeowner discovers a mold problem, their first reaction will be to grab a spray bottle and start scrubbing. STOP! Removing the kind of mold you find in your basement or crawl space is not a simple DIY project.

    You need specialized equipment, chemicals, and training to remove mold properly. This ensures effective remediation and does so in a manner that is safe for you and your family.

    Do I Have To Leave My Home?
    In most cases, leaving your home during mold remediation is unnecessary. However, the extent of the mold problem and the specific remediation methods we use may require temporary relocation for safety and to minimize mold exposure.
