  • Exposing yourself or others to mold growth should never be taken lightly in Edwardsville homes or offices. Mold can pose significant health threats and liability issues that pose risks to everyone involved. Homeowners, shareholders, property managers, and renters need to take proactive steps against its spread as soon as they detect it.

  • Rainbow Restoration understands the urgency associated with mold infestation. Our technicians offer immediate mold removal to protect employees, customers, family members, and you.

    We use a six-step mold remediation procedure that ensures lasting and effective results. Our technicians will conduct an initial assessment in which they will detect mold by pinpointing its source and offering remediation advice as necessary. Based on their findings, they will create an action plan designed to effectively address the issue at hand.

    In order to prevent cross-contamination and keep mold spores from spreading across other areas of your property, affected areas will be decontaminated before being sealed off to keep cross-contamination under control. Our technicians use HEPA filters to effectively eliminate mold spores and contaminants to provide a healthier and safer environment for everyone in the office.

    Mold has the capability of penetrating personal belongings and materials deeply, so to eliminate any mold growth present, it's critical to eradicate all porous items as soon as possible. Antimicrobial cleaners can be used to disinfect nonporous materials. After being repaired and cleaned, restored pieces should be dried thoroughly to reduce mold growth. We then use our expertise in reconstructing and repairing affected areas to return your property back to its original state.

Mold Remediation to Prevent Health Risks

Mold exposure can create numerous health concerns from nasal irritation, throat, lung, eye discomfort, and breathing difficulty to respiratory conditions or cold/flu symptoms. Specific populations in Edwardsville are particularly prone to health risks associated with mold exposure, such as seniors, young people, or those with preexisting medical conditions, such as asthmatic individuals and seasonal allergy sufferers.

Moisture Control During Mold Remediation Services

Mold thrives in humid environments. Edwardsville, IL, provides several prime conditions for mold growth. Among the causes are leaky plumbing pipes or water damage due to flooding, HVAC system issues, roof or window leaks, and high indoor humidity.

HVAC problems caused by roof or window leakage and high indoor humidity levels, building age, ventilation problems, or specific materials used as building materials driving further mold growth.

Tips to Prevent Mold Growth in Edwardsville, IL

To curb mold growth and spread, moisture control is of vital importance. Regular inspection of areas with high humidity levels, plumbing problems, or water leaks should also occur. Moisture management techniques such as proper ventilation or dehumidifier use can reduce excess moisture that promotes mold formation in basements or crawl spaces prone to this growth.
