After a very snowy/rainy winter, I had concerns of moisture and mold in my crawl space. I gave Tyler at Island Shield a call and he came out the same day! After a quick inspection my concerns proved true. Tyler had his crew out within a few days and had the mold remediation done. Quick and painless process, great crew, great work. Would highly recommend this company to friends and family. 5 stars!Posted on Google ryan murphyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
