Your Questions About Mold Water Remediation, Answered Directly

Yes. Mold Water Remediation Corp holds NY State Mold Remediation Contractor License #24-6A4P4-SHMO. The Division of Safety and Health issues this credential, and you can verify it through the NY State Department of Labor. We do not use unlicensed subcontractors on remediation work.

Kfir Lavi founded Mold Water Remediation in 2016 and serves as CEO. He directs daily operations across the five boroughs and nearby New Jersey. Call 212-470-7993 to discuss a complex building directly with company leadership.

The company launched in 2016 and serves residential and commercial properties. The crew has close to a decade of experience in co-ops and pre-war walk-ups. That building experience shapes how we scope and staff every job. Our about page covers the history in full.

The Brooklyn dispatch matches crew size to your project scope. Mold Water Remediation employs 20 crew members, which allows flexible deployment. Describe the affected area fully so dispatch sends the right headcount.

Yes. We deploy simultaneous crews for multi-floor and multi-unit water emergencies. A parallel response limits damage when water travels through shared ceiling assemblies. The 20-person structure exists to support exactly that. Commercial restoration covers large-loss work in detail.

Have your building type, borough or city, and unit numbers ready. Tell the dispatcher if you already know the water source. Knowing about a pipe failure or a backup helps crews pack the right equipment.

Most residential jobs run three to five days from extraction to verified dry. Larger or slower-drying jobs can run longer. We measure the timeline with moisture meters rather than a calendar, and pre-war plaster and masonry hold moisture far longer than modern drywall. Water damage restoration explains the full sequence.

Water mitigation stops active loss and limits further deterioration. Restoration then repairs the damage and returns the space to normal. Mitigation always happens first, and each phase produces its own insurance documentation.

Yes. New York requires an independent assessor for that testing, and the assessor cannot be the remediation contractor. Post-clearance testing confirms airborne spore counts have returned to acceptable levels. Crews take containment down only after a passing result.

A diagnostic inspection identifies the growth and the moisture source sustaining it. The independent inspector produces a written report with findings and recommendations. Our remediation team then works from that report to define the physical scope.

Yes. We take jobs across the entire city and complete projects in Brooklyn, Manhattan, Queens, The Bronx and Staten Island. We also cross into Hoboken, Jersey City, Newark and Paterson. We do not hand jobs to partner companies based on location.

Yes. Manhattan is a primary service area for our crews. The Brooklyn dispatch sends licensed teams to Midtown, Harlem and Washington Heights regularly. Those teams work under the same NY State licence as every other job.

All crews work from 1419 Coney Island Ave in Brooklyn. Teams reach Queens via the Belt Parkway and the Bronx via the BQE, without routing through Midtown. A single base means fully equipped teams reach every neighborhood efficiently.

Water damage clients receive start-to-finish moisture readings and equipment deployment logs. Mold remediation clients receive containment records and the independent post-clearance test result. We format all of it for property managers and insurance adjusters.

Yes. Property owners submit our paperwork when responding to HPD mold violations, and licensed remediation with documented clearance is what closure requires. Adjusters use the moisture logs to verify scope and timeline. Our guide to the NYC mold rules covers the process.

Call us. A recurrence almost always means the moisture source was never resolved, not that the removal failed. We return, re-read the affected area, and trace the source using thermal imaging and calibrated meters.
