Gary inspected the plenum, there was microbial growth in the insulation. The system was replaced 3 years ago but had the original 20 year old plenum. Gary replaced the plenum and installed a scrubber. We haven't had any allergy problems in our new home so far.

They came to do the full inspection of our HVAC system and performed a thorough inspection with photos and a very detailed list of quoted recommendations. Gary and team were punctual the 3 times they came to our home and their price was very reasonable.

Noah took the time to show us photos from inside the vents and ductwork and clearly explained the level of cleaning needed and why. We really appreciated the transparency and education instead of feeling pressured.

Frequently Asked
Questions About
Water Damage Inspection & Drying

Do you provide microbial growth remediation?

No. We do not perform licensed microbial growth remediation. We provide moisture inspection, drying support, and cleaning of accessible HVAC components. If licensed microbial growth remediation is required under Texas regulations, we refer homeowners to qualified remediation professionals.

Do you handle emergency water extraction?

We provide moisture inspection and limited drying assistance related to HVAC systems and affected areas. For large-scale flooding or insurance restoration projects, we coordinate with licensed water damage restoration specialists.

How quickly should water damage be addressed?

Water intrusion should be evaluated as soon as possible. Delayed response can increase structural damage and raise the risk of microbial growth, especially in warm Texas climates.

Can water damage affect my HVAC system?

Yes. Water intrusion can impact ductwork, insulation, air handlers, and drain systems. Moisture inside HVAC components may reduce system efficiency and affect indoor air quality.

Do you work with licensed remediation companies?

Yes. If contamination or damage exceeds cleaning and drying scope, we can coordinate with licensed remediation professionals in compliance with Texas regulations.

What causes water damage in HVAC systems?

Common causes include clogged AC drain lines, condensation buildup, roof leaks near attic ductwork, plumbing leaks, or storm-related intrusion.
