Our shower grout kept growing mold no matter how often we scrubbed it. Turned out our exhaust fan was barely pulling any air at all. They fixed the tile and were upfront that the fan needed attention too.

Reviews
Rated 4.9 by Kirkwood-area neighbors
Fast to respond and easy to reach. The technicians were tidy, respectful of our home, and explained what caused the growth so it would not come back.
Professional containment, HEPA vacuuming, the whole process was textbook. Worth hiring certified pros.
Our process
Our bathroom mold remediation process in Kirkwood, MO
Inspect

We check whether the exhaust fan is properly sized and actually venting outside, not just running.
Remove
Mold in grout, caulk, and any affected drywall or subfloor is removed or treated as appropriate.

Air movers dry out affected framing and drywall so nothing gets sealed back up while still damp.

Our team is based in Valley Park, about 10 minutes from our Valley Park base, so we can usually reach a Kirkwood home the same day. Our methods follow public guidance from the EPA and the CDC on handling indoor mold safely.

Good to know
Bathroom Mold Remediation in Kirkwood, MO: common questions
Can I clean bathroom mold myself?
Light surface mold on tile or grout can often be managed with regular cleaning. If it keeps returning quickly or has spread to drywall, that usually points to a moisture or ventilation issue worth having checked.
Is it my exhaust fan or a plumbing leak?
Mold concentrated around the shower and ceiling usually points to ventilation. Mold near the base of the toilet, under the vanity, or along the floor is more likely a slow leak, which we'll check for separately.
How long should I run my bathroom fan after a shower?
A common guideline is 20 to 30 minutes after showering to fully clear humid air. If your fan can't keep up with that even when it's working properly, it may be undersized for the room.
Do I need to leave my Kirkwood home during the work?
Usually no. We seal the work area under negative air, so most of the Kirkwood home stays livable. For larger jobs we will tell you if it is better to step out for a day.
Why does my bathroom mold keep coming back?
Recurring mold almost always points to insufficient ventilation, either a fan that's too small, not vented properly, or not run long enough after showers. We check this as part of every job.
Will you remove and replace my grout?
We can remove and treat affected grout and caulk as part of the job. Full re-tiling is outside our scope, but we'll let you know if that's what the situation calls for.
Will my insurance cover bathroom mold remediation in Kirkwood?
It depends on the cause. When the mold follows a sudden, covered event, there is often coverage. We bill your carrier directly and document the loss so your Kirkwood claim moves.
Do you serve Kirkwood?
Yes. We cover all of Kirkwood, including Oakland, Glendale, Des Peres, and the rest of the Kirkwood area. We are based in Valley Park, about 10 minutes from our Valley Park base, and answer our own phone around the clock.
