Inspect
The attic, roof decking, and ceiling drywall in Columbia homes are checked to trace the full path of water intrusion.
Contain
The attic access or ceiling opening is sealed under negative air pressure before any colonized material is disturbed.
Remove
Saturated insulation and mold colonized drywall or decking are bagged and removed through the containment area.
Dry
The attic space and ceiling cavity are dried thoroughly, as wet insulation releases moisture slowly.

Good to know
Mold After Roof Leak in Cahokia, IL: common questions
How can I tell if a ceiling stain in my Columbia home has mold behind it?
A musty odor, a stain that continues to grow, or soft, spongy drywall are indicators that mold growth may have started behind the ceiling.
Can mold remediation wait until after the roof is repaired?
It is recommended to have the moisture assessed promptly. Waiting allows mold more time to spread through insulation and wood framing.
Is mold damage from a roof leak covered by insurance?
Coverage depends on the specific insurance policy and the cause of the leak. The damage is documented with photos and moisture readings to support the claim process.
How soon can you start mold after roof leak in Cahokia?
The line is answered 24/7, and a crew can usually reach a Cahokia home the same day you call, sooner for an active leak.
Do remediation specialists enter the attic to check for mold?
Yes. The attic, insulation, and roof decking are inspected first, as this is where roof leak moisture initially collects.
Will insulation be replaced during the process?
Saturated and mold colonized insulation is removed and disposed of as part of the remediation. Reinsulation is typically coordinated with the roof repair.
How do you keep the mold from coming back after mold after roof leak?
The moisture source is fixed first, not just the mold, then the structure is dried and rechecked. That is what keeps mold from returning to a Cahokia home.
Do you serve Cahokia?
Yes. Local contractors cover all of Cahokia, including Sauget, East Carondelet, Centreville, and the rest of the Cahokia area. The line is answered around the clock, and a visit is often set the same day you call.
