About this company

NY Mold & Clean Air Solutions operates out of Katonah, NY, as a Pure Maintenance licensee using their patented VaPure dry fog system. Greg and Elise own the company. They came to mold work after Elise developed health problems traced to mold in their own home. Greg brings over 30 years of construction and building experience. They also run Peak Life Holistics, a wellness center in Somers, NY, focused on mold-related illness and detoxification.

The VaPure system fills a property with a dry fog of Peracetic Acid at a particle size small enough to stay airborne rather than condensing on surfaces. A second pass applies an antimicrobial layer that bonds to surfaces. The company claims most jobs finish in under 12 hours without demolition, though their site acknowledges severe cases may still require tear-out. They send post-treatment air samples to a third-party lab and offer to re-treat at no cost if results fall short. For diagnostics, they use the InstaScope, which provides real-time airborne particle data on-site rather than requiring samples to be sent to a lab.

Review consensus

What reviewers praise

Greg is named in nearly every review. Reviewers highlight his willingness to explain the process, identify root causes, and educate homeowners about what they are dealing with. Chelsea Socha noted he was upfront that additional cleaning after a separate mold inspection would come at no extra cost. Cynthia Casey, a Local Guide with 34 reviews, called out his compassion for someone dealing with mold-related health issues and said he traveled outside his normal territory to help. Diego Herrera praised the treatment as safe for pets and children. Several reviewers — Sara Schmidt, Dawn Leuzzi, Daniel Sears — reported noticeable air quality improvements after treatment. Tara Magalski praised both Greg and Elise, noting she had other mold companies in her home that were not helpful before finding this one.

What low reviews reveal

0 found across 20 total reviews at 5.0★. No negative reviews exist in the recent window. With 0 complaints across 20 total reviews at 5.0 stars, there is no complaint data to analyze.

Pattern worth noting

Every review with text names Greg personally, suggesting he handles most or all customer-facing work himself. This is a strength signal for now — you get the owner on every job — but it also means the company's capacity is tied to one person. If demand grows, the experience may change.

Named staff

Greg (owner/lead technician — praised in nearly every review for knowledge, communication, and hands-on work). Elise (co-owner — praised by Tara Magalski for helpfulness during remediation).

Bottom line

Ask for Greg specifically — he runs the jobs and reviewers consistently praise his transparency and teaching approach. Since they handle both testing and remediation, get a second opinion on any test results before committing to treatment. The 20-review track record is strong but short, so ask for references from jobs similar to yours.

Keep in mind

  • They do both testing and remediation, which creates a financial incentive to find problems they can then bill to fix. Consider getting an independent test before or after their work.
  • This is a Pure Maintenance franchise licensee, not an independently developed method. The VaPure system, equipment, and chemicals come from the franchisor. Ask what happens if Pure Maintenance changes terms or pricing.
  • Their service area lists five counties plus Yonkers and 'And More' — confirm they will travel to your location without an added trip charge before booking.
  • With only 20 reviews and a 5.0 rating, the sample is small. A perfect score at this volume tells you early customers are happy, but does not reveal how the company handles problems at scale.
