We had mold after a slow leak under the sink. They inspected it, explained the plan, and left the space dry and clean.
Trustworthy crew. They only removed what was necessary and did not try to upsell us.

Good to know
HVAC & Air Duct Mold Remediation in Collingdale, PA: common questions
How do I know if my ductwork has mold?
A musty smell that gets stronger when the HVAC system runs, or visible growth around vent covers, are the most common signs.
Will you fix the moisture causing the mold?
We identify the moisture source, whether it's condensation, a crawl space leak, or humidity issues, and either address it directly or coordinate with an HVAC technician.
Do I need to replace ductwork with mold in it?
It depends on the material and extent of growth. Metal ductwork can often be cleaned, while some flexible or fiberglass-lined duct may need replacement.
Do I need to leave my Collingdale home during the work?
Usually no. We seal the work area under negative air, so most of the Collingdale home stays livable. For larger jobs we will tell you if it is better to step out for a day.
Can I clean duct mold myself?
Ductwork is hard to access safely and cleaning it without proper containment can push spores through the whole house, so it's best left to a professional crew.
Does a humidifier make duct mold more likely?
It can, since evaporative coolers add significant humidity to the air moving through the ductwork, especially if the system isn't well maintained.
Is the hvac & air duct mold remediation you do in Collingdale to a real standard?
Yes. Our crew follows the IICRC S520 standard for mold remediation, the same framework insurers and inspectors recognize across Delaware County.
Do you serve Collingdale?
Yes. We cover all of Collingdale, including Sharon Hill, Aldan, Glenolden, and the rest of the Collingdale area. We are based in Folcroft, about 5 minutes from our Folcroft base, and answer our own phone around the clock.
