After a leak behind our bathroom wall, we had a hole in the drywall for weeks waiting on a contractor to call back. This team removed the mold and rebuilt the wall themselves, and it matched the rest of the room better than I expected.

Good to know
Mold Damage Restoration in Wood River, IL: common questions
Do you handle the rebuild or just removal?
Both. We remove and dry the affected area first, then handle framing repair, drywall, insulation, and finish work so the space is fully restored, not just gutted.
Will the repaired area match the rest of my house?
We do our best to match paint, texture, and trim to the surrounding space. For older homes with discontinued materials, we'll flag that upfront rather than promise a perfect match we can't deliver.
What if more mold is found once you open the wall?
We'll stop, show you what we found, and adjust the scope before continuing. You won't be surprised by extra work you didn't approve.
Is the mold damage restoration you do in Wood River to a real standard?
Yes. Our crew follows the IICRC S520 standard for mold remediation, the same framework insurers and inspectors recognize across Madison County.
How long does the restoration phase take?
It depends on the size of the area and materials involved. A single bathroom wall might take a few days once removal is complete; a full basement rebuild takes longer. We'll give you a realistic timeline after inspection.
Can you work directly with my insurance adjuster?
Yes. We document damage and repairs throughout the job and can communicate directly with your adjuster on covered claims.
Will my insurance cover mold damage restoration in Wood River?
It depends on the cause. When the mold follows a sudden, covered event, there is often coverage. We bill your carrier directly and document the loss so your Wood River claim moves.
Do you serve Wood River?
Yes. We cover all of Wood River, including Roxana, Hartford, Rosewood Heights, and the rest of the Wood River area. We are based in East Alton, about 5 minutes from our East Alton base, and answer our own phone around the clock.
