Clean Joe

Clean Joe holds a 4.8-star rating across 186 Google reviews, which matters in Boston where older homes built around 1943 face real moisture challenges. The city's 73% average humidity and 44 inches of annual rainfall create ideal conditions for mold growth, especially in basements and crawl spaces. A highly-rated mold remediation contractor who's earned that trust from local homeowners is worth considering when you spot signs of mold or water damage in your house.

Before hiring, verify that Clean Joe is registered with Massachusetts' Office of Consumer Affairs, since the state requires all home improvement contractors to have this registration. While Massachusetts doesn't issue a specific mold remediation license, look for the IICRC S520 certification, which is the recognized standard in the industry. Typical remediation projects in your area run between $2,000 and $6,000, so get a detailed estimate upfront and confirm their credentials match these standards.
