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 pick up the phone.

Residential mold remediation for Waltham is handled the right way. The technicians find and fix the moisture source first, because mold always returns if the water problem is left behind, then the area is contained and the mold is removed safely.

Waltham is about 2 miles from Auburndale, so a crew can usually be there the same day you call. The methods follow public guidance from the EPA and the CDC on handling indoor mold safely.
