Local knowledge

Mold Inspection for Kirkwood, MO homes

Mold Inspection in Kirkwood tends to start the same way mold does across Saint Louis County: undetected roof or plumbing leaks in Kirkwood residences that allow mold to develop over time. When that moisture sits for even a day or two, mold takes hold, and that is when homeowners from Oakland, Glendale, Des Peres and the rest of Kirkwood pick up the phone.

Mold inspection for Kirkwood is handled the right way. The technicians find and fix the moisture source first, because mold always returns if the water problem is left behind, then the area is contained and the mold is removed safely.

Kirkwood is about 5 miles from Valley Park, so a crew can usually be there the same day you call. The methods follow public guidance from the EPA and the CDC on handling indoor mold safely.
