Reviews
Rated 4.9 by Berkley-area neighbors
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.
Very knowledgeable about mold types. The lab identified it, they removed it, and re-tested to confirm.

Local knowledge
Sewage Mold Remediation for Berkley, MA homes
Sewage Mold Remediation in Berkley tends to start the same way mold does across Bristol County: heavy rain and seasonal flooding pushing water toward foundations and crawl spaces. When that moisture sits for even a day or two, mold takes hold, and that is when homeowners from Dighton, Assonet, Taunton and the rest of Berkley call us.
We handle sewage mold remediation for Berkley 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 East Freetown, about 15 minutes from our East Freetown base, so we can usually reach a Berkley home the same day. Our methods follow public guidance from the EPA and the CDC on handling indoor mold safely.

Good to know
Sewage Mold Remediation in Berkley, MA: common questions
Is a sewage backup more dangerous than a regular water leak?
Yes, sewage contamination carries health hazards a clean water leak doesn't, which is why porous materials are typically removed rather than dried and reused.
Does sewage cause mold faster than clean water?
The combination of moisture and organic contamination can create favorable conditions for mold to develop quickly, so fast response matters.
Will insurance cover a sewage backup?
Coverage depends on your specific policy, sometimes requiring a sewer backup rider. We document the damage thoroughly to support your claim.
Will my insurance cover sewage mold remediation in Berkley?
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 Berkley claim moves.
Should I try to clean up a sewage backup myself?
It's best to avoid direct contact and call a professional crew, since proper protective equipment and disposal practices are important for safety.
What materials do you remove after a sewage backup?
Porous materials like carpet, carpet padding, and drywall that contacted sewage are generally removed and disposed of rather than cleaned in place.
Do I need to leave my Berkley home during the work?
Usually no. We seal the work area under negative air, so most of the Berkley home stays livable. For larger jobs we will tell you if it is better to step out for a day.
Do you serve Berkley?
Yes. We cover all of Berkley, including Dighton, Assonet, Taunton, and the rest of the Berkley area. We are based in East Freetown, about 15 minutes from our East Freetown base, and answer our own phone around the clock.
