Signs of Vehicle Water Damage & Mold

Mold can start forming within 48 hours of trapped moisture. Don’t ignore the warning signs.

No guessing. Just precision.

Leaks can originate from multiple places: sunroof drains, window seals, HVAC cowls, taillight seams—you name it. That’s why we use advanced testing methods, including:

We don’t just stop the symptoms—we solve the source.

Our Proven 6-Phase Water & Mold Recovery Process

Diagnostic Evaluation

We inspect the full vehicle—top to bottom—to locate all leaks and contamination.

Water Extraction

Powerful vacuums remove moisture from carpet padding, foam, and floor cavities.

Drying & Dehumidification

Industrial air movers and desiccant dehumidifiers ensure thorough, efficient drying.

Antimicrobial Treatment

Hospital-grade disinfectants kill bacteria and mold spores deep in the surfaces.

Odor Elimination

We use chlorine dioxide and hydroxyl generators to neutralize lingering odors—not just cover them.

Reassembly

Once dry, sanitized, and odor-free, we reassemble your vehicle and confirm it’s leak-free.

I came here for an insurance claim, but they detailed my car beautifully which was unexpected but appreciated! I've gotten it professionally detailed before but have never seen it so clean before. Definitely a positive experience and they worked well with my insurance to facilitate the claim.

Gina and her team at astonishing detail are wonderful. They offer a wide range of services and the prices are reasonable. She will inspect your car and go over what you need/want. I got my 2015 ford escape detailed and it literally looks better than the day I bought it! I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for car detailing and will absolutely be telling my friends and family to come here. 10/10

Astonishing Detail is the most appropriate name for this company! Gabor was absolutely amazing and fair, and the end result was phenomenal. My car has gotten so many compliments due to Gabor going above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect! It was a great pleasure getting to know him and building a new professional relationship but even better because I gained a new friend. Thank you, Gabor, for everything you did, and I look forward to bringing my wife's car in soon!

Took the car in for headlight restoration. The nighttime light quality was so much better and having the factory lenses shine like new is worth the visit

Great attention to detail - they did a little extra for me on the interior even though I got the hand wash and wax. Super nice, discussed some blemishes they could remove in the future, went over the whole car with me. And it looks GREAT.

Everyone at Astonishing Detail was amazing! The process of getting my car detailed was so simple. I brought my car over to them, they reviewed my exact needs in detail with me and then provided me with an estimate. I was able to approve the estimate online and bring in my vehicle When it was convenient for me. They cleaned it inside and out beautifully and meticulously and had it done very quickly. They are now my go to car detailing professionals in Richmond, Virginia.

Why DIY Solutions Don’t Work

Spray bottles and over-the-counter foggers might hide the smell—but they don’t solve the problem. Mold has roots. Without full removal and sanitization, it will come back—stronger.
