Mold Removal & Remediation in Upper West Side, NY
Mold is like that one neighbor who overstays their welcome—quiet at first, then suddenly everywhere. In the Upper West Side, where older buildings and tight spaces are common, mold doesn’t need much to get cozy.
At SERVPRO, we’re certified in mold remediation and have tackled mold jobs all over Manhattan—yes, even beyond our official territory. We know what to look for, where it hides, and how to evict it permanently.
What We Do (and Why It Works)
- Inspection & Assessment – We find the source and scope, like detectives in work boots.
- Containment – Plastic sheeting and negative air pressure keep spores from spreading to the rest of your home.
- Air Filtration – HEPA filters clean the air like a fresh breeze off the Hudson.
- Mold Removal – We remove and treat affected materials to prevent regrowth.
- Cleaning & Repair – We clean contents and rebuild what’s necessary—"Like it never even happened."
From basement closets to bathroom ceilings, we’ve seen it all. And because we’re locals, we understand the quirks of pre-war plumbing and humid summers that can contribute to mold growth.
Mold may be persistent, but so are we. When you need expert mold removal in the Upper West Side, SERVPRO is ready to roll up our sleeves and restore your peace of mind—one room at a time.
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.

Residential Mold Removal

When it enters your home and begins to cause mold problems, it’s in your best interest to have professional mold remediation performed to help ensure safety and effectiveness.
Our professionals are equipped to assess the mold and provide remediation services, using advanced equipment and techniques to help ensure its source is located, and the mold is remediated. Given its potential to cause allergens and irritants that may cause health effects, our services will help maintain your peace of mind while our professionals work to clean up the mold as quickly as possible.

Commercial Mold Remediation
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.
We understand the urgency of returning your business to functioning condition, given that every hour of closed business is an hour of lost production and revenue. Take the necessary steps to help protect your customers, employees, and the health of your business by having our team assess and remediate any mold damage that may have grown in your commercial space.
What our
customers are saying
I called in the wee hours about a leaky toilet. I can’t say enough about SERVPRO. Here fast and with a great attitude about a nasty job. I'll never use anyone else.
I was terrified when my dishwasher overflowed. I was afraid the water would soak into my new carpeting. Your guys came on time and had the water out of my kitchen in a jiffy. THANK YOU!
We tried your competitors but were appalled at how often they skipped an appointment or left junk for us to cleanup. Fast, consistent, and professional work are reasons why SERVPRO is the restoration company for us.
I checked a lot of reviews and asked neighbors. Reports of speed and high-quality services are why SERVPRO made the cut. My contractor praised the work you did cleaning up water and mold damage before my latest remodel. Adding my positive review to many others.
I asked a lot of questions and feel I know why SERVPRO is the best. My neighbors are still waiting, but all of my damage is fixed after the water main burst.
I wasn't sure who could dry my flooded basement but am glad I found SERVPRO of the Upper West Side. Ben gave me an estimate that same day and more helpful than I ever expected. My basement was completely dry and back to normal within the week. I'm very thankful I found them because their service was great.
My Kitchen flooded in the middle of the night... at 1am - SERVPRO picked up the phone immediately when I called. Then, they were immediately on-site with equipment - total pros. They came back for insurance walk-through, having digital readouts of everything and backup for claims. Negotiating with agents became a non-issue with this level of documentation and data. Well done.
I heard about SERVPRO from a work friend. He said you were professional and thorough, and he was right. Impressed with the moisture detection work that made sure all the water was gone.
My kids overflowed the bathtub while I was cooking dinner. Not only did your crew come FAST, they were so patient with my little helpers, AKA my twin sons.
