When that moisture sits for even a day or two, mold takes hold, and that is when homeowners from East Hampton North, Springs, East Hampton and the rest of Northwest Harbor call us.
We handle mold inspection for Northwest Harbor 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.
