We had mold after a slow leak under the sink. They inspected it, explained the plan, and left the space dry and clean.
The mold cleanup itself was great. The only hiccup was a reschedule due to weather.
Our process

We trace the leak back to its source and check surrounding cavities for moisture with a meter.
