Provider snapshot
What this listing says
East Texas homeowners in Wood, Hopkins, or Franklin counties who need mold and water damage handled by the same owner-operated crew under one scope of work.
Best for
- Homeowners in Winnsboro, Sulphur Springs, or surrounding East Texas communities dealing with mold after a water event.
- Real estate agents or buyers who need a fast mold inspection during an option period — multiple reviewers describe same-day or next-day scheduling.
- Renters or property owners who want the water source fixed and the mold removed by the same crew rather than hiring separate contractors.
- Anyone with an active insurance claim who needs detailed documentation, moisture logs, and scope sheets to support their filing.
About this company
Wet To Dry Restoration is an owner-operated restoration company based in Winnsboro, Texas, serving rural East Texas. Their primary identity is water damage restoration, but they handle mold testing, mold remediation, fire damage, emergency plumbing, and general remodeling. Scott Hudson, the owner, runs the crew and personally handles most inspections and estimates.
On the mold side, they do both testing and removal in-house. Their website describes an IICRC S520-aligned process using containment, HEPA filtration, negative air machines, and post-remediation verification. They also handle the upstream water problem — leak repair, structural drying, dehumidification — as part of the same project, which means you are not coordinating multiple contractors. That said, having one company test for mold and then sell you the remediation creates a financial incentive worth understanding before you commit.
Scott Hudson has been in the restoration business for over 15 years. The company is small and local — no call centers, no franchise overhead. Multiple reviewers mention Scott driving long distances or showing up on weekends and holidays, including one account of him coming out on Easter Sunday for a real estate inspection. Tiersa handles phone communication and walks clients through lab results.
A perfect 5.0 stars across 65 Google reviews is unusual. No company satisfies every customer, so this rating likely reflects a mix of genuinely strong service in a small market and the kind of review profile that comes from an owner who stays personally involved in every job.

Review consensus
Scott Hudson is mentioned by name in the majority of reviews. Recurring themes: shows up on time or same day, explains findings in plain language without pressure, answers questions patiently, and prices competitively. Tiersa is named in several reviews for walking clients through mold test results and being reassuring on the phone. Jason is named once for a water damage emergency response, praised for knowledge and quick arrival. Multiple real estate agents specifically praise turnaround speed during transaction deadlines.
0 found across 65 total reviews at 5.0★. No negative reviews exist in the last 18 months (0 found across 65 total reviews at 5.0 stars). There is no complaint data to analyze.
The review profile is almost entirely driven by Scott's personal involvement. He is named in roughly two-thirds of all reviews, which suggests the client experience depends heavily on working directly with the owner. If the company grows and Scott is less involved in day-to-day jobs, the experience may change. Also notable: several reviews appear to be duplicates (e.g., three identical 5-star reviews from John, Kris, and Chris with the same text posted on the same date), which inflates the count slightly.
Scott Hudson (owner — overwhelmingly positive across dozens of reviews for punctuality, honesty, knowledge, and fair pricing). Tiersa (phone and results communication — positive in multiple reviews for being reassuring and clear). Jason (field technician — positive in one review for fast water damage emergency response).
If you hire Wet To Dry, ask for Scott to handle the inspection personally. Get an independent mold test if you want to separate the diagnosis from the remediation bid. For real estate transactions, this company has a track record of fast turnaround during option periods.
Keep in mind
- They do both mold testing and mold remediation. The company that finds the problem also sells you the fix, which is a financial conflict of interest. Consider getting an independent test from a separate inspector before committing to their remediation scope.
- This is a small operation. Scott handles most of the inspections personally, which means scheduling may depend on his availability, especially if you are outside their core service area.
- Their listed service area covers Wood, Hopkins, and Franklin counties, but at least one review mentions Scott driving to Venus/Maypearl (Ellis County, roughly 2 hours away). Confirm travel fees and response times for locations outside their core territory.
- With 65 reviews and zero negatives, there is no complaint data to evaluate. That is not a red flag on its own, but it means you should ask for references from jobs similar in scope to yours.
