About this company
FDP Mold Remediation of McLean is a multi-location mold removal company dispatching from Crestwood Heights Drive in McLean, VA. They handle the full cycle: inspection, testing, remediation, and reconstruction. The parent company, Green Cleaning Systems Inc., operates FDP locations across Virginia, Maryland, DC, New Jersey, New York, Florida, and Texas.
The McLean office offers a $149 on-site inspection that gets deducted from the remediation price if you hire them. Their website describes a 9-step process that includes containment with polyethylene sheeting, HEPA-filtered negative air machines, anti-fungal treatments, and dehumidification. They provide lab results for air and surface samples as part of their written reports. Reconstruction after remediation is done through their own general contractors.
FDP has been operating since at least 2005 based on their copyright dates. The company holds IICRC certification for mold remediation and water damage restoration. They list Applied Structural Drying Technician and Applied Microbial Remediation Specialist among their credentials.
47 Google reviews at a perfect 5.0 stars is unusual for a mold company. No reviewer in the last 18 months has left anything below 4 stars. That said, the review volume is modest, and a perfect score across a small sample does not guarantee every job goes smoothly.

Review consensus
Punctuality is the standout theme. Alex, Albert, Abraham, Jose, Ian, and Allen all get called out by name, and nearly every detailed review mentions the technician arriving on time or calling ahead. Alex appears in roughly ten reviews spanning 2022 through 2026, consistently praised for being on time, knowledgeable, and clear in his explanations. Albert drew praise for using a moisture meter to check the attic and giving a 15-minute arrival window. Abraham was called courteous and credited with completing a full diagnosis-to-removal job in under a week. Jose was praised for identifying problems quickly and understanding both short-term and long-term implications. Ian and Allen were highlighted together for explaining the remediation process clearly during inspection and then delivering on the work. Several reviewers mention next-day availability and fast turnaround.
0 found across 47 total reviews at 5.0★. No 1-star reviews exist across 47 total reviews at 5.0 stars. There are zero negative reviews of any kind in the last 18 months.
The absence of any negatives across 47 reviews is atypical for a service company. Two factors may contribute: the modest review volume and the franchise model, where unhappy customers may leave reviews on other FDP location pages rather than the McLean listing specifically. Kevin Rosendall's 5-star review mentioned scheduling issues requiring extra visits due to holidays, suggesting friction points exist but do not translate into low ratings. Maxwell Malloy's 5-star review described the intake process as 'a little bumpy' and 'a little ridiculous' with multiple transfers before booking, hinting at call-center friction that reviewers tolerate because the field work delivers.

FDP McLean has a clean review record with a deep bench of named technicians who show up on time and explain what they find. Ask for Alex if you want the most-reviewed technician, or Abraham if speed matters. Get an independent mold test before signing a remediation contract, since FDP does both testing and removal.
Keep in mind
- FDP does both mold testing and mold remediation. A company that tests for mold and then sells you the remediation has a financial incentive to find problems. Consider getting an independent test from a separate inspector before committing to remediation.
- This is a multi-state franchise operation, not a local independent shop. The McLean office dispatches technicians who may also serve other FDP locations in Northern Virginia and DC.
- 47 reviews at a perfect 5.0 is a very small sample. One or two bad experiences would meaningfully shift that rating. Ask for references from recent McLean-specific jobs.
- The website claims service across eight states. Confirm the McLean office is handling your job directly and not routing it to a different regional team.
- Their $149 inspection fee is waived if you hire them for remediation. This creates a pricing incentive to stay with FDP rather than shop around after the inspection.
