Local knowledge
Mold Inspection for Ellisville, MO homes
Mold Inspection in Ellisville tends to start the same way mold does across Saint Louis County: bathrooms, kitchens, and laundry rooms in Ellisville 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 Clarkson Valley, Ballwin, Winchester and the rest of Ellisville call us.
We handle mold inspection for Ellisville 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 Glencoe, about 5 minutes from our Glencoe base, so we can usually reach a Ellisville home the same day. Our methods follow public guidance from the EPA and the CDC on handling indoor mold safely.
