Frequently asked questions
Can I use bleach for a DIY fix?
Bleach is not a complete remediation plan and can create more problems on porous materials. Call for an assessment and safe containment guidance.
Do I need air testing?
Testing can be useful in some situations, but the right step depends on the visible conditions, moisture source, and scope. We explain what is and is not needed.
Will you fix the leak?
We identify the moisture source and coordinate the handoff. Plumbing or building repairs may require the appropriate trade; we document the remediation scope clearly.
We’re the (845) 554-0400 / 1stresponseny.com team—not other companies using a similar name.
