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 Framingham Center, MA: 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.
Will my insurance cover hvac & air duct mold remediation in Framingham Center?
It depends on the cause. When the mold follows a sudden, covered event, there is often coverage. We bill your carrier directly and document the loss so your Framingham Center claim moves.
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.
Do I need to leave my Framingham Center home during the work?
Usually no. We seal the work area under negative air, so most of the Framingham Center home stays livable. For larger jobs we will tell you if it is better to step out for a day.
Do you serve Framingham Center?
Yes. We cover all of Framingham Center, including Framingham, Ashland, Cochituate, and the rest of the Framingham Center area. We are based in West Boylston, about 30 minutes from our West Boylston base, and answer our own phone around the clock.
