We noticed a smell coming from under the sink and figured it was just old cabinet wood. There was actually a slow leak that had been going for a while. They caught it before it reached the subfloor and were quick about the whole thing.

Our process
Our kitchen mold remediation process in South Roxana, IL
Inspect
We check under the sink, behind and under the fridge, and around the dishwasher for signs of moisture and staining.
Trace the leak
We identify whether the source is plumbing, an appliance line, or condensation buildup before removing anything.
Remove
Affected cabinet material, subfloor, or drywall is removed; salvageable surfaces are cleaned and treated.
Dry
Cabinets and flooring are dried thoroughly, since cabinet interiors trap moisture longer than open rooms.
Verify
We recheck moisture levels before closing cabinets back up or replacing removed material.

Local knowledge
Kitchen Mold Remediation for South Roxana, IL homes
Kitchen Mold Remediation in South Roxana tends to start the same way mold does across Madison County: bathrooms, kitchens, and laundry rooms in South Roxana where everyday humidity has nowhere to go. When that moisture sits for even a day or two, mold takes hold, and that is when homeowners from Roxana, Hartford, Wood River and the rest of South Roxana call us.
We handle kitchen mold remediation for South Roxana the right way. We find and fix the moisture source first, because mold always returns if the water problem is left behind, then we contain the area and remove the mold safely.
Our team is based in East Alton, about 5 minutes from our East Alton base, so we can usually reach a South Roxana home the same day. Our methods follow public guidance from the EPA and the CDC on handling indoor mold safely.
South Roxana specifics
Why South Roxana homes need Kitchen Mold Remediation
If you have noticed a musty smell or a spreading stain in your home, kitchen mold remediation is worth a call before the damp reaches the framing. The reason Kitchen Mold Remediation comes up so often here is simple: air conditioning condensation feeding mold on cool basement and closet walls, working on local homes month after month. Kitchen Mold Remediation is one of the more common calls we get from homeowners around South Roxana. Older and newer homes alike need Kitchen Mold Remediation, from the newer builds near Rosewood Heights to the oldest ones in town.
Most Kitchen Mold Remediation jobs in the area trace back to bathrooms, a pattern we see week after week. A South Roxana home that needs Kitchen Mold Remediation almost always has a moisture story behind it, and it usually starts with air conditioning condensation feeding mold on cool basement and closet walls.

Good to know
Kitchen Mold Remediation in South Roxana, IL: common questions
How do I know if my kitchen leak has caused mold?
Warped or swollen cabinet wood, a persistent musty smell near the sink or fridge, or discoloration on cabinet backs are the main signs. If any of these are present, it's worth having the area checked.
Will I need new cabinets?
It depends on the material and how long they were exposed to moisture. Particleboard bases usually need replacement once saturated; solid wood can often be cleaned and treated instead.
Can a refrigerator water line really cause mold?
Yes, a loose or cracked ice-maker line fitting can leak slowly behind or under the fridge for a long time before anyone notices, since that area isn't checked often.
Do I need to leave my South Roxana home during the work?
Usually no. We seal the work area under negative air, so most of the South Roxana home stays livable. For larger jobs we will tell you if it is better to step out for a day.
Do you fix the leak too?
We identify the likely source of moisture, but plumbing or appliance repair itself is outside our scope. We'll tell you clearly what needs fixing so you can get it addressed.
Is it safe to keep cooking in my kitchen during remediation?
In many cases, yes, especially if the affected area is limited to under-sink cabinetry or a small section. We'll walk you through what to expect based on the specific scope of your job.
How do you keep the mold from coming back after kitchen mold remediation?
We fix the moisture source first, not just the mold, then dry the structure and recheck it. That is what keeps mold from returning to a South Roxana home.
Do you serve South Roxana?
Yes. We cover all of South Roxana, including Roxana, Hartford, Wood River, and the rest of the South Roxana area. We are based in East Alton, about 5 minutes from our East Alton base, and answer our own phone around the clock.
