Contain
Affected areas are sealed with negative air containment to prevent cross contamination during the Boxford mold remediation.
Remove
Porous materials saturated with Category 3 flood water, such as drywall and insulation, are removed and cannot be sanitized in place.
Dry
Air movers and dehumidifiers restore the structure to normal moisture levels, with daily progress tracked by meters.

Good to know
Flood & Storm Mold Cleanup in Somerville, MA: common questions
How soon to call after a flood in Boxford?
Call as soon as it is safe. Mold can begin on wet materials within 24 to 48 hours, so a prompt start helps preserve more of the structure.
Can occupants stay in the house during flood mold cleanup?
It depends on the extent of affected areas. The on site technician will designate zones closed off under containment during the Boxford mold remediation work.
Does homeowners insurance cover storm related mold?
Coverage varies by policy and water source. The damage is documented with photos and moisture readings to support the insurance claim process.
Do I need to leave my Somerville home during the work?
Usually no. The work area is sealed under negative air, so most of the Somerville home stays livable. On a larger job, the technician on site will say if it is better to step out for a day.
Is flood water mold cleanup different from a regular leak?
Yes. Due to contaminants in flood water, porous materials that become wet are removed and not dried for reuse.
Do you handle basement flooding from spring rain?
Yes. Spring runoff and rain flooding into Boxford basements and crawl spaces is common work for local remediation specialists.
How do you keep the mold from coming back after flood & storm mold cleanup?
The moisture source is fixed first, not just the mold, then the structure is dried and rechecked. That is what keeps mold from returning to a Somerville home.
Do you serve Somerville?
Yes. Local contractors cover all of Somerville, including Winter Hill, East Somerville, Cambridge, and the rest of the Somerville area. The line is answered around the clock, and a visit is often set the same day you call.
