Same-day response when our basement flooded. They dried it out and removed the damaged drywall before mold could spread.
Trustworthy crew. They only removed what was necessary and did not try to upsell us.

Good to know
Water Damage Mold Cleanup in Salem, WI: common questions
How soon can mold grow after water damage?
Under the right conditions mold can begin growing within 24 to 48 hours of a surface staying wet, which is why fast drying matters as much as the cleanup itself.
Will insurance cover water damage mold cleanup?
Coverage depends on your policy and the cause of the water intrusion. We document the damage thoroughly and can work directly with your carrier.
Can I just dry it out myself with fans?
Fans can help with surface moisture, but they usually can't dry a wet wall cavity or subfloor completely, and mold can start before it's fully dry.
How do you keep the mold from coming back after water damage mold cleanup?
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 Salem home.
Do you handle both the drying and the mold removal?
Yes, our crew handles moisture mapping, structural drying, and mold removal as one coordinated job instead of separate visits.
What if the water damage happened weeks ago?
Older water damage often means mold has already started behind walls or under flooring. We inspect thoroughly since the visible damage rarely matches what's hidden inside the cavity.
Do I need to leave my Salem home during the work?
Usually no. We seal the work area under negative air, so most of the Salem home stays livable. For larger jobs we will tell you if it is better to step out for a day.
Do you serve Salem?
Yes. We cover all of Salem, including Paddock Lake, Camp Lake, Bristol, and the rest of the Salem area. We are based in Genoa City, about 20 minutes from our Genoa City base, and answer our own phone around the clock.
