Visit and Inspection — What Happens

A visit in Midtown starts the way it does everywhere else on this site: the affected rooms are looked at first, then the materials around them — walls, floors, ceilings and cabinets — so the extent of the mold is found before any work is planned. The findings decide what work is needed and which rooms and materials are involved.

After the visit, the work is talked through with you: what needs doing, which rooms are involved, and what preparation is needed. The method used is confirmed on the call — this page does not promise a particular method for any home in Midtown. Follow-up, where the job needs it, is agreed on the visit, and any drying and follow-up are talked through before the visit ends.

After the work, the affected rooms are looked at again — and you will be told what to watch for afterwards. If the problem comes back, call and describe what you see; the next step is planned from what you describe.

Preparation is confirmed with you before the visit, and it depends on the problem and the rooms involved.
