We noticed a smell coming from under the sink and figured it was just old cabinet wood. There was actually a slow leak that had been going for a while. They caught it before it reached the subfloor and were quick about the whole thing.

Reviews
Rated 4.9 by Lake Arrowhead-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.
Our Crestline home had mold in the basement after heavy rain. They fixed it fast and it has stayed dry.
Our process
Our kitchen mold remediation process in Lake Arrowhead, CA
Inspect
We check under the sink, behind and under the fridge, and around the dishwasher for signs of moisture and staining.
Trace the leak
We identify whether the source is plumbing, an appliance line, or condensation buildup before removing anything.
Remove
Affected cabinet material, subfloor, or drywall is removed; salvageable surfaces are cleaned and treated.
Dry
Cabinets and flooring are dried thoroughly, since cabinet interiors trap moisture longer than open rooms.
Verify
We recheck moisture levels before closing cabinets back up or replacing removed material.

Good to know
Kitchen Mold Remediation in Lake Arrowhead, CA: common questions
How do I know if my kitchen leak has caused mold?
Warped or swollen cabinet wood, a persistent musty smell near the sink or fridge, or discoloration on cabinet backs are the main signs. If any of these are present, it's worth having the area checked.
Will I need new cabinets?
It depends on the material and how long they were exposed to moisture. Particleboard bases usually need replacement once saturated; solid wood can often be cleaned and treated instead.
Can a refrigerator water line really cause mold?
Yes, a loose or cracked ice-maker line fitting can leak slowly behind or under the fridge for a long time before anyone notices, since that area isn't checked often.
Will my insurance cover kitchen mold remediation in Lake Arrowhead?
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 Lake Arrowhead claim moves.
Do you fix the leak too?
We identify the likely source of moisture, but plumbing or appliance repair itself is outside our scope. We'll tell you clearly what needs fixing so you can get it addressed.
Is it safe to keep cooking in my kitchen during remediation?
In many cases, yes, especially if the affected area is limited to under-sink cabinetry or a small section. We'll walk you through what to expect based on the specific scope of your job.
Do I need to leave my Lake Arrowhead home during the work?
Usually no. We seal the work area under negative air, so most of the Lake Arrowhead home stays livable. For larger jobs we will tell you if it is better to step out for a day.
Do you serve Lake Arrowhead?
Yes. We cover all of Lake Arrowhead, including Fredalba, Smiley Park, Running Springs, and the rest of the Lake Arrowhead area. We are based in Crestline, about 10 minutes from our Crestline base, and answer our own phone around the clock.
