Local knowledge
Residential Mold Remediation for University Park, IA homes

Residential mold remediation for University Park is handled the right way. The technicians find and fix the moisture source first, because mold always returns if the water problem is left behind, then the area is contained and the mold is removed safely.
University Park is about 2 miles from Oskaloosa, so a crew can usually be there the same day you call. The methods follow public guidance from the EPA and the CDC on handling indoor mold safely.
