Good to know
Flood & Storm Mold Cleanup in Collinsville, IL: common questions
How quickly should I call after a flood?
As soon as it is safe. Mold can begin within 24 to 48 hours, so a faster response helps more of the structure survive.
Can occupants stay in the home during the work?
It depends on the extent of flooding. The technician establishes containment to isolate affected areas during remediation.
Will homeowners insurance cover storm-related mold?
Coverage varies by policy and water source. The damage is documented with photos and moisture readings to support the claim.
Do I need to leave my Collinsville home during the work?
Usually no. The work area is sealed under negative air, so most of the Collinsville home stays livable. On a larger job, the technician on site will say if it is better to step out for a day.
Is flood water mold remediation different from a clean leak?
Yes. Due to contaminants in flood water, porous materials that got wet are removed rather than dried and reinstalled.
Do you handle basement flooding from spring rain?
Yes. Spring runoff and rain flooding into Glen Carbon basements and crawl spaces is common work for local mold removal crews.

It depends on the cause. When the mold follows a sudden, covered event, there is often coverage. Insurance is accepted, and the contractor works with your carrier and documents the loss so the Collinsville claim keeps moving.
