Local knowledge
Residential Mold Remediation for Waltham, MA homes
Residential Mold Remediation in Waltham tends to start the same way mold does across Middlesex County: humid seasons that keep indoor moisture high for weeks at a time. When that moisture sits for even a day or two, mold takes hold, and that is when homeowners from Bemis, West Newton, Nonantum and the rest of Waltham call us.
We handle residential mold remediation for Waltham the right way. We find and fix the moisture source first, because mold always returns if the water problem is left behind, then we contain the area and remove the mold safely.
Our team is based in Maynard, about 20 minutes from our Maynard base, so we can usually reach a Waltham home the same day. Our methods follow public guidance from the EPA and the CDC on handling indoor mold safely.
