Four quick questions, then your details. It takes about twenty seconds.

Question 1What are you dealing with?
Question 2Is anything still wet?

Massachusetts gives an owner 48 hours to get wet surfaces dry after a leak, and the EPA puts mold growth in the same window, so this answer sets the pace of everything else.

Question 3What is your position at the property?

Most homes in Cambridge are rented, and who holds the duty to fix dampness changes who we talk to and what has to be written down.

Question 4How soon do you want someone out?
Who you are, and which building

Who should we ask for?

How can we reach you?

We call to confirm the details before anyone is sent out.

Where is the property?

The contractor match is by property, not by person, so the street line matters.

Anything else we should know?
