The process

The flood & storm mold cleanup process in Cambridge, MA

Inspect

The technician maps how far floodwater traveled and which materials absorbed it, room by room, with a moisture meter.

Contain

Affected areas are sealed under negative air so cleanup does not push contamination into dry parts of the home.

Remove

Soaked drywall, carpet pad and insulation come out, since Category 3 flood water cannot be sanitized in place.

Dry

Air movers and dehumidifiers bring the structure back to normal moisture levels, tracked with daily readings.

Verify

Readings confirm the structure is dry, and remaining surfaces get an antimicrobial before the job closes out.
