The kitchen mold remediation and removal process in Shelter Island, NY
Inspect
Areas under the sink, behind the refrigerator, and around the dishwasher are inspected for moisture and discoloration.
Identify Source
The origin of moisture, whether from plumbing, an appliance, or condensation, is determined before remediation begins.
Remove
Compromised cabinet material, drywall, or subflooring is removed; salvageable surfaces are cleaned and treated.

What are signs my kitchen leak has led to mold?
