Our story
How We Started in Fullerton
About Fullerton Mold Removal and Remediation Company began in 2009 when our founder, a local contractor, kept getting called to homes with hidden mold growth after plumbing leaks and roof leaks. He saw out-of-town crews leaving behind damp drywall and no real answers. So he built a team that would do the whole job: find the moisture intrusion with thermal imaging cameras and moisture meters, contain it with polyethylene containment sheeting, and dry it with Dri-Eaz dehumidifiers and HEPA air scrubbers until the moisture meter reads dry.
Since then we have grown into a full residential and commercial mold remediation team serving Fullerton and nearby neighborhoods. We have helped more than 1,200 households and businesses in ZIP codes 92831, 92832, 92833, 92835, 92834, and 92836. Our local mold cleanup specialists in Fullerton know the common problems here: condensation and elevated humidity in older homes, mold after plumbing leaks in condos near downtown, and Stachybotrys chartarum growth in attics after a winter storm.
Practical standards, local accountability.
Fullerton Mold DefenseWhat guides the work
Our Mission
Our mission is simple: make your home or business dry, safe, and mold-free. We do that by finding the source of moisture intrusion first, then removing the mold with HEPA vacuums and antimicrobial cleaner, and finally verifying the work with a moisture meter and hygrometer. As a Fullerton mold inspection and removal company, we do not just treat the surface. We fix the cause so mold does not come back. Every job ends with a written clearance and a plan to prevent future mold growth.
Our values
What We Stand For
We run our company on four principles that show up on every job site in Fullerton. They are not slogans. They are the reasons our customers call us back and recommend us to their neighbors.
Proof Before We Cut
We never guess where mold is hiding. Before any demolition, we use a borescope inspection camera, a Tramex moisture meter, and a FLIR thermal imaging camera to map the problem. You get photos and a written scope. That means no surprise repairs and no tearing out drywall that is actually dry.
Containment Done Right
Mold spores travel. On every job we build polyethylene containment sheeting with negative air machines and HEPA air scrubbers. Our technicians wear P100 respirator filters and follow OSHA respiratory protection requirements. We also seal HVAC vents so we do not spread microbial growth in HVAC systems through your house.
Local Crews, Local Accountability
We are a local mold damage restoration company in Fullerton, California. Our technicians live in Orange County and know the housing stock here. When you call (714) 880-7758, you get a local team that can be at your door the same day. We do not subcontract to out-of-area crews.
Restore, Not Just Remove
After remediation we rebuild. We install mold-resistant drywall, apply closed-cell spray foam where needed, and use sealant for restored building surfaces. Our IICRC Applied Structural Drying (ASD) and Water Damage Restoration Technician (WRT) certifications mean we dry the structure to standard, not just to the touch.
The people behind the work
Meet the Team
Our field team is made up of IICRC Applied Microbial Remediation Technician (AMRT) and ACAC Council-certified Microbial Remediation Technician (CMRT) professionals. Several hold the ACAC Council-certified Microbial Remediation Supervisor (CMRS) credential. We also carry EPA Renovation, Repair and Painting (RRP) certification when applicable and meet California contractor licensing requirements for reconstruction work. Most of our technicians have been with us for over five years. We run two to four crews depending on the season, so we can handle everything from a single bathroom in Fullerton to a multi-unit commercial building in Orange County. We train on new equipment like the XPOWER and Abatement Technologies air scrubbers and Phoenix Restoration Equipment dehumidifiers every year.

What Fullerton Customers Say
We found mold behind our washing machine after a slow leak. Fullerton Mold Defense came out the same day, contained the area, and had it cleaned up in two days. They showed me the moisture readings before and after. No mold has come back.
Our restaurant had mold in the walk-in cooler walls. They worked overnight so we did not lose a single day of business. The crew was professional and the price matched the quote exactly. I would call them again without hesitation.
I smelled something musty in the attic for months. They used a camera to find the mold without tearing everything apart. Turned out to be a small roof leak. They fixed the mold and gave me photos for my insurance claim.
After a pipe burst under the slab, we had mold in two bedrooms. The team set up containment and air scrubbers right away. It took four days to dry and remediate. They were honest about the timeline and kept us updated every day.
We had black mold in the bathroom ceiling. They identified it as Stachybotrys and handled it with full containment. The technicians wore respirators and explained every step. The clearance test came back clean. Worth every penny.

Most Fullerton mold removal jobs run $1,200 to $3,500 for a standard single-room remediation, and $4,000 to $12,000 or more for whole-house or structural work. Inspection and testing alone is $250 to $450. We give you a written estimate before any work begins, so you know the price upfront.
A musty smell, unexplained allergy symptoms, and water stains on ceilings or walls are the top three signs. You might also notice peeling paint or warped baseboards. We use moisture meters and thermal imaging cameras to confirm mold behind walls in about 60 minutes. If you spot any of these, call us for an inspection.
Yes, if the mold is surface-level and the drywall is still structurally sound. We HEPA vacuum the surface, apply antimicrobial cleaner, and dry the area completely. If mold has penetrated the paper backing or the drywall is crumbly, we cut out the affected section and replace it with mold-resistant drywall. A borescope inspection tells us which approach is right.
In most cases, yes, if the mold resulted from a sudden, accidental leak like a burst pipe or appliance failure. Insurance typically does not cover mold from long-term neglect or poor maintenance. We document everything with photos, moisture readings, and a written report you can submit with your claim. We work with all major carriers.
Keep indoor humidity below 60 percent with a dehumidifier, fix leaks immediately, and run your bathroom fan for 15 to 20 minutes after showers.
