We had mold showing up in our condo bathroom ceiling and it turned out to be tied to a shared plumbing stack from the unit above. The team documented everything clearly, which made it much easier to get the HOA involved for the upstream fix.

Good to know
Apartment & Condo Mold Remediation in Berkeley, IL: common questions
How do I know if mold in my unit is coming from a neighbor?
We check whether the moisture source appears isolated to your unit or connects to shared plumbing or building systems, and we document what we find.
Can mold spread between condo units through shared walls?
It's possible if a shared wall, plumbing stack, or ventilation system is involved, which is why we assess beyond just the visible growth in your unit.
Will you work in a building with shared hallways and elevators?
Yes, we're experienced staging equipment and materials carefully in shared building spaces to minimize disruption to neighbors.
Do I need to leave my Berkeley home during the work?
Usually no. We seal the work area under negative air, so most of the Berkeley home stays livable. For larger jobs we will tell you if it is better to step out for a day.
Do you coordinate with my HOA or property manager?
Yes, when a moisture source appears to involve shared building systems, we provide documentation that can support a conversation with the HOA or management.
Is remediation different for a rented apartment versus an owned condo?
The remediation process itself is the same. The main difference is who we coordinate with, whether that's a landlord, an HOA, or you directly as the owner.
How do you keep the mold from coming back after apartment & condo mold remediation?
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 Berkeley home.
Do you serve Berkeley?
Yes. We cover all of Berkeley, including Hillside, Bellwood, Stone Park, and the rest of the Berkeley area. We are based in Schiller Park, about 10 minutes from our Schiller Park base, and answer our own phone around the clock.
