The process

The mold after plumbing leak process in Shirley, MA

Inspect

The leak gets traced back to its source, and the cavities around it are checked with a moisture meter.

Contain

The work area is sealed under negative air so cutting into a wall or cabinet does not spread spores through the house.

Remove

Affected drywall, cabinet backing or subfloor comes out, and colonized material is bagged through the containment.

Dry

Air movers and a dehumidifier bring the cavity to a documented dry standard before any repair begins.

Verify

Final readings and a visual check confirm the area is dry and treated before the job closes out.

How do I know if a leak caused mold?

Should I fix the leak myself before calling?

Shutting off water to the fixture helps limit the damage. Leave the moldy material untouched so the technician can assess it before cleanup starts.
