Mold Remediation
How HPD mold violations work in NYC rental buildings, and where a licensed mold remediation company fits.
Mold Remediation
HPD can issue a mold violation in a rental building after a tenant complaint and an inspection. Under Local Law 55 of 2018, the owner has to correct the mold and the moisture behind it by a deadline set by the violation’s class, according to HPD.
We are a New York State licensed mold remediation company. Dealing with HPD stays with the building owner. For the tenant side of it, see mold in a rental.
Do You Need This?
If any of these sound familiar, call us and we will tell you honestly what you are dealing with.
What To Expect
HPD gives 90 days to correct a Class A violation, 30 days for Class B and 21 days for Class C, per its Local Law 55 guidance.
In a building with 10 or more units, 10 square feet or more of mold has to be handled by a licensed mold assessor and a licensed mold remediator. The assessor writes the plan and checks the result. We are the remediation company in that order of work, and we fix the moisture source.
How It Works
You always know what happens next, and you deal with one company the whole way.
A real person picks up 24/7 and gets the nearest crew moving to your address.
We map the full damage with moisture meters and thermal imaging, including what is hidden.
We stop the spread and dry the structure properly. Equipment goes in the same day.
We document everything for your insurer, then rebuild and restore your property to its pre-loss condition, and walk it with you before we call it done.

It depends on the class. HPD gives 90 days for Class A, 30 days for Class B and 21 days for Class C.
Not on larger jobs. New York requires the mold assessor and the remediation company to be separate. We do the removal and work with an independent assessor.
