Mold Remediation in Bloomingdale, IL

Mold around windows and walls in Bloomingdale

Our mold work follows a fixed order. First comes containment: plastic sheeting around the area, a negative air machine pulling air in and sending it out a window, and HEPA scrubbers filtering the room. Second, the affected drywall, insulation and trim come out and leave the house in sealed bags. Third, every surface that stays is HEPA vacuumed, cleaned and treated with an antimicrobial. Last, we fix the moisture problem and rebuild.

Bloomingdale is on our regular route, with Lake Street, Army Trail Road, Bloomingdale Road and Gary Avenue getting us to most of the town in DuPage County. If the drywall under a window in your Bloomingdale house has gone soft and dark, the problem can be on either side of the glass: heavy condensation running off in winter, or rain getting past old caulk and siding outside. We open the wall to see which, remove what is affected, and fix the actual cause, whether that means new caulk, siding and trim repair, or insulation put back the right way. Then the drywall, trim and paint go back.

FAQ

Mold Remediation in Bloomingdale: questions

Do you test for mold?

No, we do not test for mold ourselves. We recommend an independent tester look at the area once our cleaning is done, and we hold the rebuild until you have their result.

Is it condensation or a leak?

We cannot tell from the inside surface alone. Once the drywall is open, the pattern on the framing and sheathing shows whether water came from outside or formed on the cold side of the wall, and that tells us what to fix.

How soon can the wall be closed up?

After the area is cleaned, the source is fixed and an independent tester has checked it. The written estimate shows the order, and we schedule the rebuild from there.

Will Bloomingdale need a permit?

It can for parts of the rebuild, like replacing framing or electrical work. Where Bloomingdale requires one, we pull it and schedule the inspections.

Do you serve towns around Bloomingdale?

We do. Glendale Heights, Roselle, Carol Stream and Itasca are all on our route. Call or text (815) 585-1750.
