Service Areas
Have a Mold Problem?
Mold can spread throughout a property in as little as 48 hours, and can produce allergens and irritants that have the potential to cause other health effects. Any home or business can quickly become infested with mold after suffering a water damage event. If you suspect that your home or business has a mold problem, SERVPRO of Ravenswood can inspect and assess your property. If mold is found, we have the training, equipment, and expertise to remediate your mold infestation. We have successfully performed mold removal and remediation in hundreds of homes and businesses in the Chicagoland area. We are a locally owned and operated business, and we’re ready to help.
What Is the Mold Remediation Process?
Emergency Contact
The mold cleanup and restoration process begins when you call us. Our specialist will ask a series of questions to help us determine the necessary equipment, resources, and personnel needed for you and your home.
Inspection and Mold Damage Assessment
Our professionals will carefully inspect your property for visible signs of mold. Using a variety of technologies, we can detect mold and locate any hidden water sources so the mold will not return once the area is cleaned and the mold removal process has been completed.
Mold Containment
We use various containment procedures to prevent the spread and cross-contamination of mold. All fans and heating and cooling systems will be turned off to prevent the spread as our professionals work to mitigate your mold problem.
Air Filtration
Our specialized filtration equipment allows our professionals to capture microscopic mold spores out of the air. We utilize powerful “air scrubbers” and HEPA vacuums to prevent the spread of these mold spores while the mold remediation is in process.
Removing Mold and Mold-Infested Materials
We use antifungal and antimicrobial treatments to treat mold colonies. When necessary to remediate heavy mold growth, our mold removal process includes the removal and disposal of mold-infested porous materials such as carpeting, drywall, and insulation.
Cleaning
Our professionals clean the structural elements that were infected by mold such as flooring, framing, fixtures, HVAC and mechanical systems. We will also work to improve the indoor air quality (IAQ) of the space. Other items may also require extra attention after a mold infestation, including curtains, décor and important documents.
Restoration
Depending on the level of mold damage, drywall, subfloors, and other building materials may be removed. Restoration may involve minor repairs, such as replacing drywall, painting, and installing new carpet. It may entail major repairs such as the reconstruction of various areas or rooms in your home.

Residential Mold Removal
Mold can come from many sources, including on clothing, pets, through open doors and windows, and because of excessive moisture, often in the aftermath of water damage. When it enters your home and begins to cause mold problems, it’s in your best interest to have professional mold remediation performed to help ensure safety and effectiveness.
Our professionals are equipped to assess the mold and provide remediation services, using advanced equipment and techniques to help ensure its source is located, and the mold is remediated. Given its potential to cause allergens and irritants that may cause health effects, our services will help maintain your peace of mind while our professionals work to clean up the mold as quickly as possible.

Commercial Mold Remediation
Mold can enter your business in a variety of ways. Once spotted, it’s important you contact a cleanup and restoration company like SERVPRO as soon as possible. Given its ability to spread in 72 hours or less, and the possibility of allergens and irritants that may cause health effects as a result, time is of the essence when mold spreads in your business or commercial property.
We understand the urgency of returning your business to functioning condition, given that every hour of closed business is an hour of lost production and revenue. Take the necessary steps to help protect your customers, employees, and the health of your business by having our team assess and remediate any mold damage that may have grown in your commercial space.
What our
customers are saying
When dealing with an abandoned townhome that is affecting neighboring properties a person doesn't really know what to do or where to start. Eddy was very knowledgeable about the whole process and explained every step of it. Inside the townhome was like a scene from that show hoarders, except that it was missing the people responsible. The pipes were leaking and it caused mold to grow on the walls ceilings and most of the contents. Eddy brought in a crew to empty the place out and then rid it of all the mold. We, the condo association, surely couldn't have done this without Eddy's and SERVPRO's help.
A home inspector went into my attic space and saw that my vent was not vented properly. Instead of going out it was just venting into the attic, which in turned grew mold. Eddie worked tirelessly on removing all the blown insulation and scrubbing the attic clean from all the mold. The small confined space didn't make it easy.
I called SERVPRO to get some information on removing mold from a commercial property we purchased. I spoke with Maggie who was very helpful and patient and answered ALL of my questions. I was able to get someone out to inspect the property the next day. The crew that came out was professional, respectful and very hardworking. They also were very knowledgeable and explained some of the process to my husband. Thank you SERVPRO.
These guys kick serious buttockses. In fact, the owner is a great guy. He checked our downstairs, and tested for moisture in the walls. Thankfully, it turned out that we didn't have suspicious mold spores, or other spores growing. Steve left, and charged us NADA. I tried to pay him. He refused. I tried to give him coffee, and he refused that. This was just an honest guy who didn't take us for a ride. I appreciate that, and he deserves a good review for that fact.
The building's water pipes above me burst and my entire living room and dining room wood floors were floating around my home. I am a 70 year old woman with a disabled son who is living at home b/c Misericordia is closed because of the virus. I am sure you can imagine how upsetting this was for me not only to have to deal with the water but knowing that all of the workmen would be coming into my house to dry up and sanitize the floors during this PANDEMIC. I was an emotional wreck. Thank goodness that Dakota was there. I actually had a meltdown. He quickly started calming me down and assured me that he will take care of everything with the least amount of exposure to my son and I. After they were done and my whole house was blaring with loud fans, he could tell that I was still upset and told me he would check on me and that he understood my concern. He explained the cleaning process to me so I understood why they were doing all of this and that it was necessary to do it right so Pete and I would be living in a safe environment. The next day he came by again just to check on everything and to see how we were doing. Again, making me feel so much better about living with the inconvenience of fan blasting and not being able to go in the biggest part of the house. We were literally living in one bedroom b/c all of the furniture was taken out of the room. Thank you and thanks to Dakota for making this as pleasant of an experience as is possible...considering that I had floating wood in my house! He's the greatest! I now know why Farmers Insurance directed me to your company. You have amazing employees. I'm going to let Farmers know how your company took care of us.
My name is Rhea Bradley and I am the social media coordinator for the CPD ENFORCERS football team. I posted about your service on Friday for my fiancé Joe. I had another player/officer reach out and ask for a contact at your business. Their team has experienced the same as Joe's (someone testing positive and a vehicle being passed to another office).
Please let me know if it's ok to pass this along. If there is a specific number and/or person to speak to specifically.
Again thank you so much and I will continue to post about your generosity and service. I will also review on your facebook today.
Stay well!
We had an excellent experience with SERVPRO of Ravenswood. The team were incredible and very professional after we suffered damage in our Condo. Our fridge leaked and damaged a large section of our hardwood flooring and carpeting. The team came out within an hour of us calling, helped us communicate with our insurance, and began the mitigation process the next day. They were communicative throughout the whole process, explained every detail to us during the initial assessment and continuously through the drying period, and were always timely in their work. I cannot speak highly enough of Tom, Eduardo, and Brian.
German International School Chicago experienced extensive water damage to several areas of the building due to a broken sprinkler system. We contacted SERVPRO of Ravenswood to help us with the water damage restoration. Tom Williams of SERVPRO Ravenswood immediately responded to our call, inspected the damage and sent out a professional crew to clean up and dry the floors, walls and ceilings. The crew worked very efficiently and completed the job over the weekend, so the students did not have to miss any of their classes.
We were all very pleased with SERVPRO of Ravenswood and can highly recommend their services.
Ogden West required the use of SERVPRO of Ravenswood for a waiter main break which occurred on January 23, 2018. SERVPRO was called out and their response time was fast and met with great professionalism. The faculty, staff and students were never inconvenienced while SERVPRO worked efficiently to clean up the water. SERVPRO had a team member onsite daily to check the progress of the water removal, dehumidification and clean-up of the water damage areas.
