Good to know
Rental Property Mold Remediation in Alorton, IL: common questions
Are landlords responsible for mold in a Columbia rental unit?
Illinois law generally requires rental housing to be kept habitable, and significant mold linked to a moisture problem can be relevant. This is not legal advice; consult an attorney for specific questions.
Is documentation provided for landlord tenant disputes?
Yes. Findings and the remediation work are documented with photos and moisture readings. Optional lab testing is available when additional objective proof is needed.
Are multi unit rental properties in the area handled?
Yes. Landlords and property managers receive the same service for single family rentals and multi unit buildings in Columbia and the surrounding area.
How do you keep the mold from coming back after rental property mold remediation?
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 Alorton home.
Can tenants in Columbia request a mold inspection?
A tenant can raise the concern with the landlord or property manager, who can then schedule an inspection or remediation via the 24/7 line.
Can remediation be performed in an occupied rental unit?
Yes. The work area is contained under negative air with HEPA filtration to limit disruption for tenants remaining in the unit.
Do I need to leave my Alorton home during the work?
Usually no. The work area is sealed under negative air, so most of the Alorton home stays livable. On a larger job, the technician on site will say if it is better to step out for a day.
