About MoldCompass

MoldCompass makes free, fast calculators for the real cost of mold and water damage. The goal is simple: give you one clear number — what mold removal, a water-damaged ceiling, or a flooded basement actually costs — so you know what you’re facing before a single contractor walks in.

Every calculator runs entirely in your browser and updates as you type. Nothing is stored, nothing is sold to you, and there’s no account to create. Each tool shows the figures behind the headline number so you can sanity-check the math yourself.

How we keep it honest

Our estimates are built from published industry pricing — per-square-foot remediation and restoration rates, water-category multipliers, and typical inspection and equipment fees. Where a number depends on you (the affected area, your deductible, your premium), we ask for it rather than guessing, and we treat every result as a planning estimate, not a quote.

The question no one else answers

Most cost pages stop at “here’s the price.” We go one step further: should you even file an insurance claim? Because a single water or mold claim can raise your premium for years, paying out of pocket is sometimes the cheaper move — and our claim calculators show you the break-even.
