Mold Remediation in Albuquerque, NM
Plenty of shops will quote you a mold remediation job over the phone without seeing it. That's how you end up overpaying. We don't work that way. Free dispatch in business hours. After-hours fee folded into the job price if you accept the quote.
What's specific about Albuquerque jobs
Newer Albuquerque construction tends to be on slab foundations with PEX. Easier access in some ways, more code-current in others.
On bigger jobs we'll bring two techs. On simpler ones, just one — fewer hands, faster billing.
What this service includes
Mold work follows IICRC S520 protocol: contain the area first to prevent spore spread, then remediate. Skipping containment is the #1 mistake unlicensed mold contractors make.
We set up plastic barrier walls around the affected area, run negative air pressure with HEPA-filtered air scrubbers (typically 4-6 air changes per hour), and the crew works in PPE inside the contained area.
Visible mold growth on porous materials (drywall, carpet, padding, fabric) is removed and bagged. Hard surfaces are HEPA-vacuumed and treated with EPA-registered antimicrobials.
After remediation, we run post-remediation verification (PRV) testing — usually third-party — to confirm the affected area returns to baseline.

One we ran last year
Recent Albuquerque job: black mold growing on drywall behind a wallpapered bathroom in a any era; older homes more vulnerable home. We S520 containment, removed all affected drywall and tile substrate, treated framing with antimicrobial, post-remediation verification testing passed after diagnosing slow leak from a shower valve had been wetting the drywall for 18+ months. Cost ran $820 — pretty middle-of-the-road for that fix.
