Local knowledge
Mold Inspection for Paterson, NJ homes
Mold Inspection in Paterson tends to start the same way mold does across Passaic County: air conditioning condensation feeding mold on cool basement and closet walls. When that moisture sits for even a day or two, mold takes hold, and that is when homeowners from Prospect Park, Haledon, Totowa and the rest of Paterson call us.
We handle mold inspection for Paterson the right way. We find and fix the moisture source first, because mold always returns if the water problem is left behind, then we contain the area and remove the mold safely.
Our team is based in Township Of Washington, about 15 minutes from our Township Of Washington base, so we can usually reach a Paterson home the same day. Our methods follow public guidance from the EPA and the CDC on handling indoor mold safely.
