Car Mold Remediation / Car Mold Removal

We provide car mold remediation services also known as professional car mold removal services.

We began providing Mobile Detailing services in October of 2007.  In early 2014 we received our first car mold call.  The car was an older model Honda Accord that had been sitting for several years due to a mechanical problem.  It was extremely moldy.  At the time we knew nothing about proper mold remediation, so we just detailed it like any other car.

The car went from looking like a petri dish to a normal car again.  We posted before and after photos on our website showing the total transformation from moldy disaster back to respectable car.  In addition, we included text about it being the first moldy car we detailed.  Google apparently picked up on the mold discussion and we began to slowly receive more car mold calls.   We began to realize that car mold was actually a common problem especially in the Southeast.  The common denominator among most moldy cars was water leaks.  As it turned out, we discovered that water leaks in cars was also a VERY common problem.  When trapped moisture and organic material get together in a car the result is Car Mold.

The Car Mold Remediation Evolution

Over time the mobile detailing business began to evolve into a car mold business.  Since leaks are almost always the cause of car mold, we believed we needed to become leak find and fix experts, and we did.  In addition to learning how to professionally remediate mold: we also had to learn how to eliminate strong moldy odors, how to remove and replace the carpet padding, how to remove and replace the cabin air filter, how to purge the ventilation system, and how to rapidly and thoroughly dry a vehicle.

Currently we offer car mold remediation services to six Southeastern states: North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, Georgia, Alabama, and Florida.   We will expand our service area to include Mississippi, Louisiana and East Texas by June of 2025.

Car Mold

As mentioned earlier, Car Mold is a product of trapped moisture and organic material in a car.  It’s dangerous and destructive so be careful.   In fact, it’s so dangerous and destructive that we have built a business with the sole purpose of hunting it down and eliminating it.  If you suspect Car Mold is lurking in your vehicle give us a call.

 

We were able to zoom in and take this photo of Car Mold while it was feasting on a leather car seat.  You can see the nervous look on its face, because once it sees us it knows the gig is up.
