Frequently Asked Questions
Just Scheduled a mold remediation and wondering what you can do to speed the process up?
Dry the vehicle as best you can - A rapid dry cost an extra $350 and makes the mold remediation take longer if you what to avoid that extra time and charge, try these few things
Remove excess water from the vehicle VIA shop-vac or towels
Air Flow across the carpets
Heat up the interior of the vehicle
Wipe condensation from the glass
Pull drain plugs if available
Have a new cabin air-filter ready when our detailers show up! DON’T put it in the vehicle!!
This can be obtained at any auto parts store you just need the year, make , and model.
Your cabin air-filter doesn’t need to be fancy so the cheapest one will do!
Water is tricky! Even if you think its dry it could be wet!
