Have a Mold Problem?

Any home or commercial property can have a mold problem if there is water present. In fact, a good thing to keep in mind is “You don’t have a mold problem, you have a moisture problem.” The first thing to consider is to find the source of the water, address that and then clean up the mold.

Mold can be harmful to the people occupying the structure, even if it is not a toxic mold. Some molds that are prevalent in water damage situations can cause problems for people with allergies. SERVPRO of Elgin/Northwest Kane County has the experience to determine if the problems in your home are minor or indicative of larger issues. We can address the water problem, completely clean up the mold and can complete any reconstruction that might be needed.

What Is the Mold Remediation Process?


1.svg

Emergency Contact

The mold cleanup and restoration process begins when you call us. Our specialist will ask a series of questions to help us determine the necessary equipment, resources, and personnel needed for you and your home.

2.svg

Inspection and Mold Damage Assessment

Our professionals will carefully inspect your property for visible signs of mold. Using a variety of technologies, we can detect mold and locate any hidden water sources so the mold will not return once the area is cleaned and the mold removal process has been completed.

Mold Containment

We use various containment procedures to prevent the spread and cross-contamination of mold. All fans and heating and cooling systems will be turned off to prevent the spread as our professionals work to mitigate your mold problem.

Air Filtration

Our specialized filtration equipment allows our professionals to capture microscopic mold spores out of the air. We utilize powerful “air scrubbers” and HEPA vacuums to prevent the spread of these mold spores while the mold remediation is in process.

Removing Mold and Mold-Infested Materials

We use antifungal and antimicrobial treatments to treat mold colonies. When necessary to remediate heavy mold growth, our mold removal process includes the removal and disposal of mold-infested porous materials such as carpeting, drywall, and insulation.

Cleaning

Our professionals clean the structural elements that were infected by mold such as flooring, framing, fixtures, HVAC and mechanical systems. We will also work to improve the indoor air quality (IAQ) of the space. Other items may also require extra attention after a mold infestation, including curtains, décor and important documents.

Restoration

Depending on the level of mold damage, drywall, subfloors, and other building materials may be removed. Restoration may involve minor repairs, such as replacing drywall, painting, and installing new carpet. It may entail major repairs such as the reconstruction of various areas or rooms in your home.

Residential Mold Removal

Mold can come from many sources, including on clothing, pets, through open doors and windows, and because of excessive moisture, often in the aftermath of water damage. When it enters your home and begins to cause mold problems, it’s in your best interest to have professional mold remediation performed to help ensure safety and effectiveness.

Our professionals are equipped to assess the mold and provide remediation services, using advanced equipment and techniques to help ensure its source is located, and the mold is remediated. Given its potential to cause allergens and irritants that may cause health effects, our services will help maintain your peace of mind while our professionals work to clean up the mold as quickly as possible.

Commercial Mold Remediation

Mold can enter your business in a variety of ways. Once spotted, it’s important you contact a cleanup and restoration company like SERVPRO as soon as possible. Given its ability to spread in 72 hours or less, and the possibility of allergens and irritants that may cause health effects as a result, time is of the essence when mold spreads in your business or commercial property.

We understand the urgency of returning your business to functioning condition, given that every hour of closed business is an hour of lost production and revenue. Take the necessary steps to help protect your customers, employees, and the health of your business by having our team assess and remediate any mold damage that may have grown in your commercial space.

What our
customers are saying

Everyone we’ve worked with here has been exceptionally helpful, answering all of our questions and getting to the bottom of the issue for us. Today’s service was thorough and the team lead walked me through everything that was done, letting me know the shape of the flooring, subfloor etc. and making recommendations for what to do next. We would work with them again anytime!

Kimberly Heffernan

We had an excellent experience with Cesar and his team after we had surprising flooding in our basement. He explained everything well and was polite and smiling all the time. From the moment they arrived I felt at ease.

Kirsten Beason

My sump pump broke and my basement flooded three days before leaving for vacation. I called ServPro and Walt was at my house within a couple hours to assess the damage. He was very professional and assured us that they could complete the clean up before we left for our trip, which they did! I’m very satisfied and highly recommend ServPro of Elgin.

Lynn Spaeth

SERVPRO did an excellent job when my upstairs neighbor had plumbing problems and caused major water damage to my laundry room ceiling and walls. They were very knowledgeable, accessible, prompt, and did great work. Their owner Patrick came out and was very upfront about what needed to be done and the process. He went above and beyond for me making sure I understood each process of mitigation and rebuild. Everyone I encountered from the mitigation team (TJ, Alex, and Cesar) to the rebuild team (Jaime, Cathryn, and Matias) were a pleasure to work with. The timeline they gave me was accurate and they worked with my insurance and made this stressful process much easier to handle. I would use them again and recommend to anyone needing water mitigation.

Ashley Claveria

Cesar and his team (Stefan, Karla, and Naomi) were great. Made a very stressful situation less stressful, after a failed sump pump flooded the basement. Kept us apprised every step of the way. Thank you!

David Schaefers

Our experience with Elgin Servpro was prompt, treated quickly and very clean upon finish.. highly recommend

jeanne kuntz

Had some problems with billing . When Jami came on the job things came together.

Roger Eldred

Responded quickly to the potential issue with our buyers house inspection. They were very helpful in educating us on our options and evaluating the room in question. We appreciated their professionalism.

David DeMars

I had water damage from leaky pipes in two different parts of the house. The demolition crew was here the same day that I called the insurance company which was really important as it turned out. Tom was most helpful in dealing with the insurance company which took a huge weight off my shoulders. I could not have done it on my own. Also I was always kept in the loop as to what needed to be done and when it would be done. I was impressed by how hard the crew worked. Job well done! Thank you.

About Us

Where did we start - George and Marg Jackowiec joined the SERVPRO family back in 2003 and we love what we do! We purchased our Elgin/Northwest Kane County territory first. We purchase our 2nd territory, DeKalb County in 2020 and our Aurora territory in 2022. George and Marg Jackowiec both came from professional backgrounds but felt they wanted to have more control over their careers and make a difference!

Committed to Our Communities - The fact is that as a SERVPRO franchise we are given the opportunity to assist our neighbors and our communities in their time of need. We are called on when disaster strikes, and things look pretty dark. In many events, a SERVPRO will probably be the first person you see regarding the damage to your home, and it’s not uncommon for us to be the one to ensure the job is finalized. In addition to assisting our communities of Elgin, South Elgin, Hampshire, etc., we travel all over the country to assist during national disaster events. Our storm crews have spent a combined 17 months out of state assisting with 7 hurricane and numerous localized storm events in the last 9 years alone.

Our Employees - Our crews are some of the best trained restoration professionals you will find. But training alone isn’t what gets the job done. Our crews are experienced and have assisted homeowners and businesses in some very trying events. They also care. They care that your home or business is compromised and that you just want to get back to normal! We are here to help, just give us a call!!

Taking care of others - When in town, we also play an active role in our communities by supporting the agencies that support our citizens, such as the Community Crisis Center, Elgin Boys and Girls Club, and Elgin Fire Barn No. 5 Museum. We also are actively involved in the Elgin, Hampshire, and Northern Kane County, Aurora, DeKalb and Sycamore chambers which strive to make our communities flourish.
