Water-damaged drywall, flooring, and insulation are removed, since flood water often can't be fully sanitized in place.

Good to know
Flood & Storm Mold Cleanup in Boulder Hill, IL: common questions
How fast should I call after a flood?
As soon as it's safe. Mold risk climbs quickly once materials stay wet, so the sooner cleanup starts, the more of the structure can typically be saved.
Can I stay in my home during flood mold cleanup?
It depends on how much of the home was affected. We'll walk you through what areas need to be closed off during the work.
Will my homeowners policy cover storm-related mold?
Coverage depends on your specific policy and the source of the water. We document everything thoroughly to support your claim.
How do you keep the mold from coming back after flood & storm mold cleanup?
We fix the moisture source first, not just the mold, then dry the structure and recheck it. That is what keeps mold from returning to a Boulder Hill home.
Is flood water mold cleanup different from a regular leak?
Yes, flood water can carry contaminants, so porous materials that got wet are often removed rather than dried and reused.

Yes, spring runoff and spring rain flooding into basements and crawl spaces is common in Sugar Grove and we handle it regularly.

We answer our line 24/7 and can usually reach a Boulder Hill home the same day you call, sooner for an active leak.
