Local knowledge
Residential Mold Remediation for Dixon, IA homes
Residential Mold Remediation in Dixon tends to start the same way mold does across Scott County: sump pumps and aging foundations that let groundwater seep in during wet spells. When that moisture sits for even a day or two, mold takes hold, and that is when homeowners from New Liberty, Calamus, Donahue and the rest of Dixon call us.
We handle residential mold remediation for Dixon the right way. We find and fix the moisture source first, because mold always returns if the water problem is left behind, then we contain the area and remove the mold safely.
Our team is based in De Witt, about 25 minutes from our De Witt base, so we can usually reach a Dixon home the same day. Our methods follow public guidance from the EPA and the CDC on handling indoor mold safely.
