Have a Mold Problem?
Professional Mold Remediation in California, MD
In Southern Maryland, mold likes to crash the party—especially in basements and bathrooms. But don’t let a little dampness turn into a full-blown headache. SERVPRO has nearly 40 years of experience helping homeowners and businesses in California, MD show mold the door.
Mold spores are sneaky. They float around like uninvited guests, just waiting for moisture to stick around so they can settle in. Once that happens, we bring out the big guns (figuratively, of course).
Here’s how we handle it:
- Containment Barriers – We seal off the affected space and install air scrubbers to keep spores from spreading.
- Material Removal – If drywall or carpet is too far gone, we bag it and haul it out safely.
- HEPA Filtration & Scrubbing – We clean surfaces with HEPA vacuums and brushes, sometimes even sanding or dry-ice blasting.
- Antimicrobial Treatments – We treat surfaces to help prevent mold from coming back.
- Third-Party Clearance Testing – Your peace of mind is backed by data, not guesswork.
We’re IICRC-certified and fully insured, and yep, we work with insurance companies all the time—probably even yours. Our team brings both muscle and know-how, backed by a deep understanding of local conditions, from humid summers to waterfront properties.
Got mold lurking in the shadows? SERVPRO helps clear the air—literally and figuratively—so you can breathe easier at home or work.
What Is the Mold Remediation Process?
Air Filtration
Our specialized filtration equipment allows our professionals to capture microscopic mold spores out of the air. We utilize powerful “air scrubbers” and HEPA vacuums to prevent the spread of these mold spores while the mold remediation is in process.
Removing Mold and Mold-Infested Materials
We use antifungal and antimicrobial treatments to treat mold colonies. When necessary to remediate heavy mold growth, our mold removal process includes the removal and disposal of mold-infested porous materials such as carpeting, drywall, and insulation.
Cleaning
Our professionals clean the structural elements that were infected by mold such as flooring, framing, fixtures, HVAC and mechanical systems. We will also work to improve the indoor air quality (IAQ) of the space. Other items may also require extra attention after a mold infestation, including curtains, décor and important documents.
Restoration
Depending on the level of mold damage, drywall, subfloors, and other building materials may be removed. Restoration may involve minor repairs, such as replacing drywall, painting, and installing new carpet. It may entail major repairs such as the reconstruction of various areas or rooms in your home.
Emergency Contact
The mold cleanup and restoration process begins when you call us. Our specialist will ask a series of questions to help us determine the necessary equipment, resources, and personnel needed for you and your home.
Inspection and Mold Damage Assessment
Our professionals will carefully inspect your property for visible signs of mold. Using a variety of technologies, we can detect mold and locate any hidden water sources so the mold will not return once the area is cleaned and the mold removal process has been completed.
Mold Containment
We use various containment procedures to prevent the spread and cross-contamination of mold. All fans and heating and cooling systems will be turned off to prevent the spread as our professionals work to mitigate your mold problem.

Mold can enter your business in a variety of ways. Once spotted, it’s important you contact a cleanup and restoration company like SERVPRO as soon as possible. Given its ability to spread in 72 hours or less, and the possibility of allergens and irritants that may cause health effects as a result, time is of the essence when mold spreads in your business or commercial property.

What our
customers are saying
SERVPRO blasted my crawlspace when I bought the house, and it made an immediate difference with smell in the house. If you have a moldy crawlspace this is a must, really a no brainer! The wood still looks new almost 10 years later.
This was my second experience with SERVPRO in a handful of years, and like the first time, I was not disappointed. The SERVPRO team worked together efficiently to clean up a flooded bathroom, shampooed carpets, even left heater fans and dehumidifier in place for several days to ensure the area dried out to prevent mold and mildew. I'm very pleased with their attention to details. Thank you very much! SERVPRO is definitely the team to call...first!
The crew arrived after normal working hours and did a great job installing the 9 fans and 2 dehumidifiers following our water heater failure. They also worked closely with our insurance company to identify water damage. Very professional and had great attitudes, even working later in the evening.
Since our sump pump flooding disaster, the quick and professional response of your SERVPRO team, headed by a fine, young gentleman named Todd, was a lifesaver for two seventy-plus year olds. Every aspect of the operation, from the dispatcher Tracy's professionalism to the final clean-up yesterday, was done with the utmost courtesy and respect from us.
Thanks again for all who were involved and the very professional team that you have created.
Sincerely,
Mike and Mary Jane Reber
"Five star review"
Very professional, friendly and great service. I also have to say they are very honest. There was no pressure to buy any service or to upsell anything
Yesterday, I called SERVPRO because there was black mold found in my bathroom, they came out within the hour yesterday to start the work and came out today to finish, it was neatly and quickly done. Five star service from beginning to end!
Good and fast workers and very nice people
I found SERVPRO of SoMD to be very professional and the service they provided (soda blasting our crawlspace) to be one of the best decisions I've made for our projects at the house. They also remediated the mold as well. Wouldn't hesitate to use them again.
