Hotshot Restoration San Jose: Damage Restoration, Mold Remediation & Biohazard Cleanup

The most common signs are unexplained water stains on walls or ceilings, peeling paint or wallpaper, a musty odor, and a sudden increase in your water bill. You might also notice soft spots in drywall or hear dripping sounds behind walls. If you suspect a leak, it's best to call Hotshot Restoration for an inspection before mold or structural damage sets in.

We start by locating and stopping the water source—whether it's a roof leak or HVAC condensate line. Then we dry the affected area using industrial-grade dehumidifiers and air movers. Once moisture levels are safe, we remove and replace damaged drywall, tape, mud, and texture to match your existing finish. Finally, we prime and paint, leaving your wall looking seamless and sound.

Yes, mold can grow within 24 to 48 hours behind drywall after a hidden leak. Signs include a persistent musty smell, allergic reactions, or visible discoloration. Hotshot Restoration provides mold remediation by containing the area, removing affected drywall and insulation, HEPA vacuuming, applying antimicrobial treatments, and then rebuilding the space to prevent recurrence. We also address the underlying moisture issue to stop future growth.
