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.
Professional containment, HEPA vacuuming, the whole process was textbook. Worth hiring certified pros.

How do I know if a leak caused mold?
A musty smell near a fixture, discolored cabinet backing, or soft subfloor near a sink or toilet are common signs mold has started after a leak.
