What we do
Every job starts with finding out how far the mold goes and why it is there. Then we remove it properly.
Mold inspection
A full look at the problem area and the rooms around it, with moisture readings, so you know what you are dealing with.
Mold removal
Affected material is contained, removed or cleaned, and the area is treated. No spraying over it and calling it done.
Basements and crawl spaces
The most common trouble spot in Michigan homes. We handle damp walls, joists, sill plates and stored-item damage.
Attics
Dark staining on roof sheathing usually means poor ventilation or a bath fan venting into the attic. We clean it and point out the cause.
Bathrooms and kitchens
Mold behind tile, under sinks and around tubs, often from a slow leak nobody could see.
After a leak or flood
Wet drywall and carpet can grow mold within days. We dry, remove what cannot be saved, and treat what can.
Four steps, no surprises

Signs you may have a mold problem
Mold needs moisture. If you notice any of these, it is worth having it looked at.
- A musty smell that does not go away
- Dark spots on walls, ceilings or joists
- Staining on attic roof boards
- Peeling paint or bubbling drywall
- A recent leak, flood or sewer backup
- Condensation on windows or pipes
- A damp basement or crawl space
- Mold flagged on a home inspection
Common questions
Can I just clean it with bleach?
On a small patch of tile or tub, household cleaner is fine. On drywall, wood or insulation, the surface stain may fade while the growth stays in the material, and it returns if the moisture is still there.
How long does a job take?
Most single-area home jobs take one to three days, depending on size and how much material has to come out. Your quote will give a timeline.
Do I have to leave the house?
Usually not. The work area is sealed off from the rest of the home. We will tell you up front if your job is an exception.
I am buying or selling a house. Can you help?
Yes. We can look at mold noted on an inspection report and give a written quote you can use in the sale.
Will it come back?
Not if the moisture is fixed. That is why we find the source first and tell you plainly what needs repair.
