What this listing says
Hudson Valley homeowners from Poughkeepsie to Rhinebeck dealing with basement flooding or attic mold who want the owner, Kirk Bennett, handling the job personally.
Best for
- Homeowners in Poughkeepsie, Dutchess County, or the mid-Hudson Valley who need mold removal combined with water damage restoration.
- Buyers who want a small, owner-operated company where Kirk Bennett personally oversees the work rather than dispatching a crew.
- Properties needing basement or attic mold remediation with same-day or next-day response.
About this company
Regional Mold LLC is an owner-operated restoration company based in Poughkeepsie, NY, serving Dutchess, Westchester, Orange, Putnam, and Ulster counties. Kirk Bennett runs the company and personally handles inspections and estimates. Multiple reviewers mention speaking directly with him on the first call and seeing him on-site the next day.
The company pairs mold removal with water damage restoration, which makes sense given how often one causes the other. They also offer dehumidification as part of the restoration process. Beyond mold and water work, they do painting, power washing, basement cleanouts, and kitchen cabinet refinishing — a broader scope than a mold-only outfit, which tells you this is a general property restoration business with mold as its lead service.
Nothing on their website describes specific equipment brands, remediation procedures, or testing methodology. The site is heavy on marketing language and light on technical detail. That does not mean they lack capability — reviews describe thorough attic remediation in hard-to-reach areas and detailed inspection reports — but you will need to ask about their process directly.

Headquartered in Poughkeepsie, NY. Serves Dutchess County (Arlington, Wappingers Falls, Hyde Park, Myers Corner, Pleasant Valley, Rhinebeck, Beacon), Westchester County, Orange County, Putnam County (Cold Spring), and Ulster County (New Paltz, Kingston, Highland). That spans roughly 80 miles north to south — a wide footprint for a small crew.
Review consensus
Kirk Bennett is named in 12 of 20 reviews. Reviewers consistently cite three things: fast response time (same-day or next-day site visits), transparent and competitive pricing, and Kirk's personal involvement from first call through job completion. Two Local Guide reviewers — Tim Palmer (140 reviews) and Amoy Virgo (62 reviews) — both specifically praise his responsiveness and knowledge. Reviewers describe successful basement mold removal, attic remediation in difficult spaces, and water damage cleanup after ice storms and flooding.
0 found across 20 total reviews at 5.0★. No 1-star reviews found. The company holds a perfect 5.0 across all 20 reviews with zero complaints at any star level in the last 18 months.
A perfect 5.0 with 20 reviews is unusual. The volume is still low enough that a few bad experiences could shift the picture meaningfully. Seven of the 20 reviewers have only one review on their Google account, which is common for small local businesses but means the sample skews toward prompted reviews rather than organic ones. The two Local Guide reviewers (established accounts with review histories) are both strongly positive, which is a genuine credibility signal.
Kirk Bennett (owner — praised in 12 of 20 reviews for responsiveness, honesty, transparent pricing, and hands-on work quality).
Ask for Kirk by name — he is clearly the reason this company gets its reviews. With only 20 reviews total, you are betting on a small track record, but every data point is positive and the praise is specific rather than generic. Get your mold testing done independently given the conflict of interest, then let Kirk quote the remediation.
Keep in mind
- Regional Mold does both mold testing and mold removal. That means the same company telling you that you have a problem is also the one selling you the fix. Consider getting an independent test before or after their work.
- Their website lists 13 service categories ranging from mold remediation to bathroom remodeling and kitchen cabinets. A company this broad may be stretching thin — ask how many mold jobs they run per month versus general contracting work.
- They claim service across five counties (Dutchess, Westchester, Orange, Putnam, Ulster) plus specific towns from Kingston to Cold Spring. That is a large geographic footprint for a small crew. Confirm response time and availability for your location before booking.
- The website provides almost no technical detail about their remediation process, equipment, or what a finished job report includes. Ask Kirk to walk you through the steps before signing.
