Mold remediation begins with finding the moisture source. Katy and west Houston sit at 70-plus percent average humidity nine months a year, which means porous materials are always at re-growth risk if any moisture is left behind — clearance discipline matters here in a way it doesn’t in drier climates. We test affected materials, seal off the work area so spores don’t migrate, remove contaminated drywall and carpet under containment, treat the remaining structure with EPA-registered antimicrobials, and then verify clearance before reconstruction begins.

We document everything for your insurance carrier — chain-of-custody on materials removed, before/after moisture readings, and post-remediation verification readings that meet IICRC S520 clearance standards.

FAQ

Will my homeowners insurance cover water damage restoration?
Most homeowners policies cover sudden and accidental water damage — a burst pipe, an overflowing dishwasher, an ice-maker line that lets go overnight. What is typically excluded is flooding from outside the home (storms, rising creeks), which requires a separate NFIP or private flood policy. We document everything to your carrier's standard and bill your insurance directly when the loss is covered.
