Here's what the EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) has to say: In the last several years, a growing body of scientific evidence has indicated that the air within homes and other buildings can be more seriously polluted than the outdoor air in even the largest and most industrialized cities. Other research indicates that people spend approximately 90 percent of their time indoors.
Thus, for many people, the risks to health may be greater due to exposure to air pollution indoors than outdoors. In addition, people who may be exposed to indoor air pollutants for the longest periods of time are often those most susceptible to the effects of indoor air pollution. Such groups include the young, the elderly and the chronically ill, especially those suffering from respiratory or cardiovascular disease.

EXPERTS are needed. And it doesn't matter whether the problem resulted from a broken water pipe, flood, storm or hurricane, when your life is at stake, you need to take action now. During a flood, the indoor air quality in your basement may appear to be the least of your problems. However, failure to remove contaminated materials and to reduce moisture and humidity can present serious long-term health risks.

We had water damage to the house the first contractor took our deposit and never returned. We called Barry Middleton and him and his team came and made repairs to the house as well as doing the plumbing. The work was done quickly and correctly. I would highly recommend Emergency Damage.

First- I’m loooong overdue on providing this review. 2nd- I typically only leave reviews of the service/product was absolutely terrible or absolutely amazing.
Barry/Emergency Damage was absolutely amazing. They remediated my finished basement that had mold spores around Oct/Nov 2019. Although they did a great job- the give stars was given because of the process. Barry was prompt, flexible and followed through on all items promised.
Highly recommend Emergency Damage!
