Does insurance typically cover this type of cleanup?

Usually no. The work area is sealed under negative air, so most of the Colton home stays livable. On a larger job, the technician on site will say if it is better to step out for a day.

Are drying and mold remediation performed concurrently?

Yes. The process integrates moisture mapping, structural drying, and mold removal into a single, coordinated remediation project.
