Contain
The work area is sealed under negative air so cutting into a wall or cabinet does not spread spores through the house.
Remove
Affected drywall, cabinet backing or subfloor comes out, and colonized material is bagged through the containment.
Dry
Air movers and a dehumidifier bring the cavity to a documented dry standard before any repair begins.

Final readings and a visual check confirm the area is dry and treated before the job closes out.

Good to know
Mold After Plumbing Leak in Aurora, IL: common questions
How do I know if a leak caused mold?
A musty smell near a fixture, a discolored cabinet back, or a soft subfloor near a sink or toilet are the usual signs growth has started.
Can mold grow from a leak we already fixed?
Yes. If the cavity stayed wet long enough before the repair, growth can already be underway even though the leak itself is gone.
How long does mold after a plumbing leak take to remediate?
It depends how far the water traveled, but most single-fixture leaks are contained, removed and dried within a few days.
Do I need to leave my Aurora home during the work?
Usually no. The work area is sealed under negative air, so most of the Aurora home stays livable. On a larger job, the technician on site will say if it is better to step out for a day.
Should I fix the leak myself before calling?
Shutting off water to the fixture helps limit the damage. Leave the moldy material untouched so the technician can assess it before cleanup starts.
Do you work with my plumber?
Yes. Scheduling is coordinated so the leak repair and the remediation happen in the right order.
How do you keep the mold from coming back after mold after plumbing 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 Aurora home.
Do you serve Aurora?
Yes. Local contractors cover all of Aurora, including Montgomery, North Aurora, Boulder Hill, and the rest of the Aurora area. The line is answered around the clock, and a visit is often set the same day you call.
