We had a musty smell in the hallway for months with nothing visible anywhere. The team used a camera to check inside the wall and found mold from an old leak we didn't even know about. Glad we finally had it checked.

Thorough inspection and a fair quote. They explained the lab results in plain words and never pushed anything on us.
They drove out to Sainte Genevieve the same day we called about the mold. Fantastic service.

Good to know
Hidden Mold Remediation in Hicks, MO: common questions
I smell mold but can't see any. What should I do?
A persistent musty smell with no visible source is worth having inspected. We use moisture meters and cameras to locate hidden mold without unnecessary demolition.
Can hidden mold make a home smell musty without being visible?
Yes, mold growing inside a wall cavity, under flooring, or behind a cabinet can produce a noticeable smell well before it becomes visible on a surface.
Is hidden mold more dangerous than visible mold?
It isn't inherently more dangerous, but it often goes untreated longer since nobody knows it's there, which can let it spread further before it's addressed.
Is the hidden mold remediation you do in Hicks to a real standard?
Yes. Our crew follows the IICRC S520 standard for mold remediation, the same framework insurers and inspectors recognize across Sainte Genevieve County.
Will you have to cut open my walls?
Sometimes a small opening is needed to confirm and access hidden mold, but we always try to locate it first with non-invasive tools to keep the opening as small as possible.
How do I know if past water damage left mold behind?
If an area was wet in the past and the smell or discoloration returned later, it's a strong indicator that moisture remained trapped inside a cavity.
Will my insurance cover hidden mold remediation in Hicks?
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 Hicks claim moves.
Do you serve Hicks?
Yes. We cover all of Hicks, including Quarry Town, New Bourbon, Saint Mary, and the rest of the Hicks area. We are based in Sainte Genevieve, about 10 minutes from our Sainte Genevieve base, and answer our own phone around the clock.
