Mold Detection & Removal Services

One of the worst contaminants known is the silent but dangerous growth of mold. Mold can grow indoors on wet or damp surfaces, such as wallpaper, ceiling tiles, carpets, insulation material, wood and drywall. It can start to grow within 48 hours and if left unchecked, can have serious impacts on both your quality of life and your home’s physical structure. If you see signs of mold or suspect that it has infected your home, ServiceMaster Restore is here to help remediate the problem and prevent long-term damage.

Our IICRC certified mold remediation technicians use industry leading methods and tools to detect, contain, and eliminate mold growth in homes and businesses. We conduct thorough inspections using moisture meters, boroscopes, air sampling, and surface sampling to identify contaminated areas. Once detected, we set up containment barriers and use HEPA-filtered vacuums, antimicrobial agents, and fogging to fully remove mold and prevent recurrence. We properly dispose of contaminated materials. With our advanced drying techniques, we eliminate excess moisture that allows mold to thrive. Our mold remediation process fully restores your home’s air quality and safety.

Mold is present everywhere in nature, but when it finds its way into your home or office space it can be a major problem.

We use infrared technology as part of the mold detection process and special chemicals to help remediate the mold and protect your home.

Our mold remediation technicians are highly trained and experienced in containing mold outbreaks and fully eliminating spores and mycotoxins. We begin by assessing the extent of contamination using moisture meters, air testing, surface testing, and lab samples. Once we have a clear picture of the type of mold present and the impacted areas, we develop a tailored mold remediation plan. We properly install containment barriers and use HEPA vacuuming, fogging, and antimicrobial agents to remove mold at its roots. We ensure surfaces are scrubbed and disinfected thoroughly. With our advanced drying systems, we eliminate excess moisture that allows mold to thrive. Don’t let mold take over your home or health – contact us immediately if you suspect mold growth. Our mold remediation process restores the safety and integrity of your home.

Why is Mold a Problem?

Structural Damage
Mold gradually destroys the things it grows on and can grow anywhere, including inside:

  • Foundations, roofing & HVAC systems
  • Drywall, gutters, furnishings & more

Health Problems
In your home, all molds have the potential to cause side effects, including the following:

  • Headaches, breathing difficulties & skin irritation
  • Allergic reactions, aggravation of asthma symptoms & more

If You Suspect Mold

Here are some things you should do if you suspect a mold problem in your home or office:

  • Look for visible signs of mold like black or green spots, fuzzy growth, and musty odors. Inspect any damp, humid, or water-damaged areas closely.
  • Purchase a mold test kit and sample different areas to test for mold spores. This can confirm or rule out a mold issue.
  • Hire a professional mold inspector to conduct a thorough evaluation. They can identify problem areas and the type of mold present.
  • Stop any water leaks immediately and fix other moisture issues like humidity and poor ventilation. Mold needs moisture to grow.
  • Run dehumidifiers and fans to actively lower indoor humidity levels below 50%. Mold thrives in damp conditions.
  • Clean any small areas of visible mold thoroughly using protective gear, soap, commercial mold cleaners or bleach solutions.
  • Remove and dispose of any porous materials like drywall, carpets, or insulation that have mold contamination.
  • Have HVAC systems professionally inspected for mold. Mold can grow inside vents and reach living spaces.
  • Consult a certified mold remediation company if the issue seems serious or widespread. Do not try extensive removal yourself.

Addressing a potential mold issue quickly is important to prevent spreading and protect health. Seek professional mold remediation if home remedies are not working.

Here are some things you should avoid doing if you suspect mold in your home or office:

  • Don’t ignore it – Mold won’t go away on its own. Ignoring visible mold or musty odors will allow the problem to worsen.
  • Don’t try to paint over mold – Painting over mold just hides the issue temporarily; it will continue growing under the paint.
  • Don’t spray bleach or chemicals without proper protection – Mold spores can be released into the air. Use respirators, goggles, and protective clothing.
  • Don’t disturb or spread mold – Avoid breaking or scraping moldy materials. This releases more spores into the air.
  • Don’t place furniture or items against moldy walls – Mold can transfer through contact and contaminate possessions.
  • Don’t turn up heat or use fans – Higher heat and air circulation spread mold spores faster throughout a space.
  • Don’t use humidifiers – Adding more moisture to the air can exacerbate mold growth.
  • Don’t wait if you have health concerns – Headaches, breathing issues, and sinus problems may indicate a serious mold issue.
  • Don’t attempt large-scale removal yourself – Mold remediation requires proper techniques to contain spores and avoid contact.

The best approach is to have mold professionally inspected and tested. A mold mitigation company can then outline the proper remediation plan.

Service Master out of Granger has been the biggest blessing to me with the flood that I encountered August 2021. From the onset to the bring back of content, this service has been phenomenal on many levels. After experiencing such a devastating loss,, Angelica, Matt, and their team made the process so easy and comforting. Being involved with their services for over two years with phone calls and going to their storage area multiple times, their friendly assistance has made them feel like life-long friends. I can help honestly say that because of these people that I was able to endure dealing with insurance and keep my emotional sanity when I was falling apart.

The team at Service Master were all thoughtful and kind and enjoyable to have in my home, Angelica was always great with getting back to me and staying in touch and keeping me informed. I thought that it took way too long to get the job done, but I was pleased with the finish project. Jerry, Rya, Kathy and John were all great in the field.

Had a major water break in a bathroom. ServiceMaster rapid response and thorough water damage and mold prevention services played a major role in minimizing damage and cost of repair and restoration work. They provided an onsite storage pod to protect personal propery, packed and unpacked many boxes. When restoration was completed. Their knowledge of homeowner insurance was a tremendous help in filling insurance claim.

Zero stars! We had a leak from our toilet. Service Master in Granger came and did the tear out of all the wet materials of the home... floors, vanity, walls, and left our furniture in the home with their mega fans and "air purifiers"... swirling around all the sewage air on all our personal belongings. Then our insurance company sent a POD for our personal belongings (furniture, rugs, mattress, storage bed.) Matt Parker of Service Master sent a moving company "My Movers" to move our stuff into the POD. Like thieves in the night "My Movers South Bend" came into our home without notice or warning, moved our stuff from the home, WE NEVER EVEN SAW THE MOVERS." "My Movers South Bend" damage our Suede Chair, didn't wrap our mattress just shoved it into our POD on the filthy floor, destroyed my Storage bed so it will never be right, and shoved our white slipcover loveseat on its fabric into the POD on the filthy floor... THEY DID NOT WRAP ANYTHING!!!!!!! They left and we didn't get to witness this move at all. Because again they didn't let us know that they were coming! Matt Parker at Service Master offered to "on site spot clean" the mattress with a bunch of chemicals, clean the now filthy loveseat, and hasn't even acknowledged my storage bed. Then decided that the suede chair was already damaged. (my walls showed damage from the jamming of my chair through the hall and doorway. Service Master in Granger, and My Movers flipped us the bird after they basically vandalized our things. I say vandalized cuz we weren't even home for the movers. Matt Parker picked the "My Movers South Bend"... I did not! IN RESPONSE TO MATT BELOW, because of the damage we originally went to AUTO OWNERS INSURANCE TO DEAL WITH SERVICE MASTERS DAMAGE TO OUR FURNITURE MOVED TO THE POD! NOT CLAIMING WATER DAMAGE! Auto Owners told us to deal with Matt Parker directly. The bed was not damaged before it was moved from the house, the chair was jammed through the door damaging my walls and the chair legs, the mattress was filthy after being shoved into the POD, and the White Slipcover was filthy after also being shoved into the POD! Matt, never talked about replacing the slipcover! Matt you have dragged this out since September and never fully took responsibility... today 11/20/23 you still have been blowing me off after a plethora of email exchanges... I did NOT hire My Movers... Matt Parker hired them!
