We had mold showing up in our condo bathroom ceiling and it turned out to be tied to a shared plumbing stack from the unit above. The team documented everything clearly, which made it much easier to get the HOA involved for the upstream fix.

Reviews

The crew showed up on time, contained the work area, and showed me the moisture readings before and after. Tidy, careful work.
The inspector used a moisture meter and thermal camera to find hidden mold. Impressive and worth every dollar.

Good to know
Apartment & Condo Mold Remediation in Phelps, IL: common questions
How do I know if mold in my unit is coming from a neighbor?
We check whether the moisture source appears isolated to your unit or connects to shared plumbing or building systems, and we document what we find.
Can mold spread between condo units through shared walls?
It's possible if a shared wall, plumbing stack, or ventilation system is involved, which is why we assess beyond just the visible growth in your unit.
Will you work in a building with shared hallways and elevators?
Yes, we're experienced staging equipment and materials carefully in shared building spaces to minimize disruption to neighbors.
Is the apartment & condo mold remediation you do in Phelps to a real standard?
Yes. Our crew follows the IICRC S520 standard for mold remediation, the same framework insurers and inspectors recognize across Saint Clair County.
Do you coordinate with my HOA or property manager?
Yes, when a moisture source appears to involve shared building systems, we provide documentation that can support a conversation with the HOA or management.
Is remediation different for a rented apartment versus an owned condo?
The remediation process itself is the same. The main difference is who we coordinate with, whether that's a landlord, an HOA, or you directly as the owner.
Do I need to leave my Phelps home during the work?
Usually no. We seal the work area under negative air, so most of the Phelps home stays livable. For larger jobs we will tell you if it is better to step out for a day.
Do you serve Phelps?
Yes. We cover all of Phelps, including Dupo, East Carondelet, Cahokia, and the rest of the Phelps area. We are based in Columbia, about 5 minutes from our Columbia base, and answer our own phone around the clock.
