The prices can be crazy high--I did hear 15K today for something that a regular contractor quoted out at $3500.
A lot of these mold and water abatement people are storm chasers who come in and charge the absolute top of the market and capitalize on fear. Not all of them I am sure, but after Isaac that was the source of a lot of complaints by homeowners. Homeowners realized after the fact that they had been charged huge prices by a company to do work that they could probably have done themselves.
In any case the company is supposed to be licensed in the state of Louisiana. A lot of these out of town guys are not, and once they realize they have overextended themselves or are ready to go back home, they will leave town. If you realize they did a crappy problem later, good luck tracking them down and doing anything about it.

Also you can buy a dehumidifier that will do about 2000 square feet,similar to those used by the commercial companies, for less than $200 on Amazon.
