Best for

  • Nashville metro commercial properties -- especially hotels, apartment complexes, and retail -- needing water or mold damage restoration with insurance coordination.
  • Homeowners in Williamson County and surrounding areas dealing with mold after a water event who want a company that handles testing, remediation, and reconstruction under one roof.
  • Property managers who need a single vendor for recurring carpet cleaning, water extraction, and mold treatment across multiple units.
  • Large-loss situations requiring catastrophe-scale response with industrial equipment and multi-week project timelines.
  • Buyers who want post-remediation clearance testing and a transferable warranty on the mold work.

About this company

ASDT is a restoration company based in Arrington, Tennessee, south of Nashville, that built its reputation on structural drying for commercial properties. Their strongest relationships are with hotels -- the Residence Inn Nashville Airport, Sonesta Nashville Airport, TownePlace Suites, and Courtyard by Marriott have all used them repeatedly over periods spanning 15 to 20 years. A Residence Inn general manager described a $1 million recovery project during the 2022 Christmas freeze where ASDT restored over 100 guest rooms across four months.

What stands out is the scale of their operation. They run a wholesale equipment rental division, supplying dehumidifiers and drying equipment to other restoration contractors nationwide. They deploy crews for catastrophe response across the country. Their mold remediation page describes negative air containment, HEPA filtration, antimicrobial treatments, and air scrubbers. They offer a one-year transferable warranty on mold remediation work, which is unusual. They also do their own clearance testing after remediation.

The company claims roughly 40 years of service on some pages and displays a 60-year logo on others. Many crew members have been with the company for decades, and the website states some hold IICRC master-level status. Gary appears to run operations, with a bench of named technicians handling field work.

A perfect 5.0 rating across 123 Google reviews is statistically rare. No reviewer in the last 18 months has left anything below 5 stars. That is worth noting -- it is either a genuinely well-run operation or a review profile that warrants a closer look from buyers.

Review consensus

What reviewers praise

Speed and responsiveness come up repeatedly -- multiple reviewers describe same-day or next-day arrivals. Joey is praised most frequently for mold work, carpet cleaning, and water cleanup. Richard draws praise for communication, insurance coordination, and managing multi-step restoration projects. Jake is highlighted for sewage cleanup, water extraction, and mold treatment. Mickey Chapman is named for mold removal specifically. Tim Beecham gets called out for carpet cleaning. Jeremy Reed is praised by commercial property managers for reliability across multiple water events. Gary is referenced as the leader coordinating large commercial projects. Several reviewers mention the crew explaining the process and keeping them informed throughout.

What low reviews reveal

0 found across 123 total reviews at 5.0★. No negative reviews (0 found across 123 total reviews at 5.0 stars) have been posted in the last 18 months. There is no recent complaint data available to evaluate.

Pattern worth noting

The review profile is unusual. All 123 reviews are 5 stars, and a significant cluster of reviews appeared in late May 2026, many from reviewers with only 1-3 total reviews. This concentration of single-review accounts posting in a short window is a pattern worth being aware of, though it does not necessarily indicate anything improper -- it could reflect a period of heavy residential work where first-time reviewers were asked to leave feedback.

Bottom line

ASDT has deep roots in Nashville's commercial restoration market, and their hotel partnerships span decades. If you are a commercial property manager, they are a strong option with a proven track record. For residential mold work, get an independent test from a separate company before or after ASDT's assessment, given the testing-and-remediation conflict. Ask to speak with Gary about scope and pricing for larger projects, or request Joey or Jake for residential mold jobs based on review frequency.

Keep in mind

  • ASDT does both mold testing and mold remediation. This is a conflict of interest -- the same company that determines whether you have a mold problem also profits from fixing it. Their own website FAQ acknowledges this issue. Consider getting an independent mold test before or after their work.
  • Their address is in Arrington, roughly 30 miles south of downtown Nashville. Confirm response times for your specific location, especially for the northern and eastern parts of the metro area.
  • A perfect 5.0 across 123 reviews with zero negatives in 18 months is uncommon. There is no negative review data to evaluate, which means you cannot assess how the company handles complaints or difficult situations.
  • The website mentions both 40 years and 60 years of service in different places. The actual founding date is unclear.
  • They work directly with your insurance company and describe themselves as advocates for your claim. Understand whose interests they represent during the insurance negotiation process, since they are also the contractor billing for the work.
