Called about a musty smell and they walked me through every step before starting. The area was contained properly and the odor was gone when they finished.

Good to know
HVAC & Air Duct Mold Remediation in Clifton, NJ: 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.
How soon can you start hvac & air duct mold remediation in Clifton?
We answer our line 24/7 and can usually reach a Clifton home the same day you call, sooner for an active leak.
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 Clifton to a real standard?
Yes. Our crew follows the IICRC S520 standard for mold remediation, the same framework insurers and inspectors recognize across Passaic County.
Do you serve Clifton?
Yes. We cover all of Clifton, including Passaic, Brookdale, Upper Montclair, and the rest of the Clifton area. We are based in Township Of Washington, about 20 minutes from our Township Of Washington base, and answer our own phone around the clock.
