We noticed our laminate floor near the kitchen had started to cup and figured it was just age. The subfloor underneath was actually damaged from a slow leak. They pulled up the affected section, dried it properly, and matched the new flooring well.

Troy specifics
Floor & Subfloor Mold Removal in Troy: what actually causes it
The reason Floor & Subfloor Mold Removal comes up so often here is simple: plumbing leaks and poor ventilation, working on local homes month after month. For a home in this area, floor & subfloor mold removal starts with finding the moisture, because the water is what feeds the mold. If you have noticed a musty smell or a spreading stain in your home, floor & subfloor mold removal is worth a call before the damp reaches the framing.

Good to know
Floor & Subfloor Mold Removal in Troy, IL: common questions
How do I know if my floor has mold underneath?
Warping, cupping, soft or spongy spots, and a persistent musty smell near the floor are the main signs. Discoloration where flooring meets a wall or appliance is another clue worth checking.
Will you install new flooring after removal?
We handle removal, subfloor assessment, and drying, and can coordinate flooring replacement to match your existing material as closely as possible.
What flooring types are most at risk?
Laminate and vinyl plank tend to hide subfloor damage the longest since the surface looks fine until the base underneath has already softened. Tile and hardwood usually show warning signs a bit earlier.
How soon can you start floor & subfloor mold removal in Troy?
We answer our line 24/7 and can usually reach a Troy home the same day you call, sooner for an active leak.
Can the subfloor always be saved?
Not always. Plywood that's only been briefly damp can often be dried and reused. Particleboard subfloor that's absorbed water usually swells and loses strength, and typically needs replacement.
Is this an emergency if the leak has stopped?
It's less urgent than an active leak, but the affected area should still be checked reasonably soon, since trapped moisture under flooring can continue causing damage even after the original leak is fixed.
How do you keep the mold from coming back after floor & subfloor mold removal?
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 Troy home.
Do you serve Troy?
Yes. We cover all of Troy, including Maryville, Saint Jacob, Edwardsville, and the rest of the Troy area. We are based in Glen Carbon, about 10 minutes from our Glen Carbon base, and answer our own phone around the clock.
