Service Areas
Have a Mold Problem?
When excess moisture is present in your home, it creates a suitable environment for mold growth. In ideal conditions, growth can occur in as little as 48 hours, but sometimes that process can occur later, just when you think you're in the clear. In addition to structural damage, mold growth can also produce allergens and irritants, which is why we encourage you to call us to inspect your Hickory-area home if you suspect you have a mold problem. If mold growth is verified, our team has the equipment and expertise to perform thorough mold remediation services.
If you are unsure what to do while you wait for SERVPRO of Catawba County West to arrive, here are some mold damage tips.
What Is the Mold Remediation Process?
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.
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
SERVPRO was very professional and made sure that my home was taken care of. I would recommend them to anyone that had a mold issue!
Great job and Mike was super!
Thank you! You made this easy for us. Keep doing what you're doing!
The best company is definetly SERVPRO for all of your mold damage remediation needs! Truly hard working and caring professionals.
We were confused by my mother's mysterious illness. That was until we called your team of mold experts! After you removed the mold, my mom doesn't get sick anymore! Wow! Thank you again!
Mold damage can be extensive and can cause your family serious health problems. We found out that mold exposure in our St. Stephens home was very high due to it being left untreated for years. Finally, we called your SERVPRO. You did the job correctly and quickly.
Victor with SERVPRO of Catawba West was great to work with. It's unusual in today's world of impersonal service to be able to call a cell number and have someone pick up immediately and ready to help. Victor was the man to help us through water damage issues at our townhome in Hickory. Stephanie in the office was also very responsive to paperwork or insurance questions. Highly Recommended!
SERVPRO was helpful in relieving the stress from our accident. I couldn't even think clearly and Tammy and her crew came in and took over everything. And as our family needed items while we were displaced from our home, the team at SERVPRO was prompt to get them to us. Unbelievable at how prompt, professional, courteous, and empathetic they were—anticpitating our needs before we even knew what needed to be done. Thank you for help making this difficult time a little easier.
GREAT SERVICE BY FRIENDLY AND PROFESSIONAL PEOPLE. I WOULD RECOMMEND YOUR COMPANY TO ANYONE IN NEED OF THIS SERVICE.
About Us
Our Story
Hi, we’re Kim and Randy Williams, the proud owners of SERVPRO of Catawba County West.
Having been in the cleanup and restoration industry since 1992, we decided to open a SERVPRO franchise that served Alexander and Caldwell Counties in 2009, just after the recession hit. While it was a slow start, we took every job and treated our customers with empathy and respect. Our success led to our acquisition of Burke County in 2011 and the two franchises in Catawba County in 2015. Today, we have over 50 employees and operate four franchises that serve Alexander, Burke, Caldwell, and Catawba counties.
We pride ourselves in our customer service and will not consider a job complete until the customer is fully satisfied. We are here to help and make any size disaster “Like it never even happened.”
Our Employees
SERVPRO of Catawba County West’s mission is to develop a team of quality people who focus on excellent service, fairness and mutual respect. This simple concept has driven our growth and we believe will continue to do so for years. All of our employees are uniformed, energetic, and ready to respond to emergencies. We are also a Clean Trust (IICRC) Certified Firm, and all of our Crew Chiefs are Certified Technicians!
Our employees take to the streets 24/7/365 to meet the disaster restoration needs of our customers. Because we are part of a nationwide system of qualified franchises, no damage is too large or too small for our team of heroes!
Our Services
Restoring property is our first priority. We offer a wide range of services to our communities with a 98% satisfaction rate from surveys conducted with our customers. Our local services include, but are not limited to: commercial and residential fire, smoke and soot damage, water restoration, mold mitigation and remediation, biohazard cleanup, deodorizing and much more.
In the last few years, we have performed fire damage cleanup and restoration and/or water damage mitigation for Lees-McRae College in Banner Elk, Bethlehem Baptist Church, Valley Hills Mall, South Park Mall-Charlotte, Hildebran town hall and Bernhardt Furniture in Lenoir.
We are also certified as an LLRT (large loss restoration team) through SERVPRO corporate and have deployed teams to disasters such as Superstorm Sandy, the floods of Chicago and the recent devastation of eastern North Carolina by Hurricane Florence.
We are a preferred vendor for large insurance companies and participate by invitation in structured vendor programs and contracts.
Our State-of-the-Art Equipment
We operate an on-site textile cleaning facility and warehouse for recovering damaged items from fire and smoke damage. The cleaning room has commercial washers, dryers, and an Esporta cleaning system (capable or restoring over 85% of items previously considered non-restorable).
We also have ultrasonic equipment, an ozone room and a heated drying chamber to properly dry materials. The ultrasonic allows us to clean items that previously would have been claimed unsalvageable!
Community Involvement
We serve our community beyond our cleanup and restoration services; we encourage our employees to become involved in community activities and groups. We are active participants in community events such as the NC Fire and Safety Bowl competition, local festivals and parades. We support and participate in local causes that benefit schools, first responders and charitable community organizations such as the Wig Bank, Robins Next, Helping Hands Clinic, Communities in Schools, Hospice, Shelter Homes and more.
