Miguel Shiell
We couldn’t be more impressed and grateful for his outstanding service and professionalism.
We needed an expert second opinion from an independent fire restoration company after we had an issue with the one our insurance provided. Manny absolutely went above and beyond, making time the same day we called to go out to our house after his workday ended and provided us with thorough and incredibly knowledgeable advice - all on the Tuesday and Wednesday before Thanksgiving. We couldn’t be more impressed and grateful for his outstanding service and professionalism.

They listened to my concerns and were extremely personable.
I had a flood where both my top floor bathroom and bottom foyer area were flooded. I looked up mitigation services and I came upon Barex. Omar and Manny came out to my home and they were both professional and down to earth. They listened to my concerns and were extremely personable. Omar made sure that I felt comfortable with the entire process and I appreciated his bedside manner Thank you Omar and Barex.

They opened the wall, took out all the bad stuff, dried everything properly and fixed it like it never happened.
We’d been fighting bathroom mold forever and nothing worked until Barex showed up. They opened the wall, took out all the bad stuff, dried everything properly and fixed it like it never happened. The wall looks brand new now and the smell is gone. Super easy to talk to, explained what they were doing, and didn’t cut corners. And Lucia from customer service was amazing, patiently answering all our questions. Feels great to finally have our bathroom back.

They saved my family from mold in our home.
I’d recommend this company to anyone! They saved my family from mold in our home. We discovered mold in the home when my kid kept getting sick and discovered there was a water leak. They responded quickly and helped get the mold. They opened the walls cleaned it and gased our house with no issues and even showed us what was there. When they fixed the wall it looked like they were never there! They kept my home clean and overall were very efficient. I can’t thank them enough for their work!

Frequently Asked Questions
Mold Remediation
What Does Mold Remediation Typically Cost in Cherokee County?
Homeowners in Cherokee County generally pay between $500 and $6,000 for mold remediation, with costs rising for homes on wooded lots where crawl spaces stay damp longer due to shade and limited airflow. Larger rural properties with septic systems can also see added costs if mold is tied to drainage issues near the foundation.
Does Insurance Cover Mold Removal in Cherokee County?
Georgia insurance policies typically only cover mold that results from a sudden covered event, like a burst pipe, rather than gradual moisture buildup. Cherokee County's red clay soil drains poorly after heavy rain, which can lead to chronic dampness that insurers may not classify as sudden. Barex helps document the cause to strengthen your claim.
How Do I Know if Mold Is Growing Somewhere I Can't See?
Look for a musty smell in specific rooms, unexplained allergy flare-ups, or discoloration around baseboards and window frames. In Cherokee County, crawl spaces under wooded, shaded homes are a common hiding spot, since tree cover keeps ground moisture from evaporating as quickly as it would in open, sunnier lots.
Do I Have to Move Out During Mold Remediation?
Usually not, unless the mold has spread into the HVAC system or across multiple rooms. Localized remediation, like a single bathroom or crawl space, can typically be done while containment barriers keep the rest of the home livable. Your Barex technician will assess your specific layout during the inspection.
Is Mold Testing Necessary Before Treatment?
Testing is worthwhile if you suspect mold but can't pinpoint the source, or if you need results for a real estate transaction or insurance claim. When the mold is visible with a clear cause, such as a known crawl space leak, Barex can typically begin remediation directly.
Why Does Cherokee County See So Much Residential Mold?
The combination of red clay soil, which drains slowly after rain, and heavily wooded lots that trap ground moisture makes crawl spaces and basements especially vulnerable. Newer subdivisions built on graded clay can also develop drainage issues that push moisture toward foundations.
