Call our 24-hour Emergency Services line (317) 826-0940 and we’ll be on our way fast. Until we arrive, you can minimize additional damage and speed the restoration process by following these tips.

  • All mold growth is accompanied by a nearby water or moisture source. If you can identify and isolate the source of water, stop it if possible.
  • To avoid spreading mold spores, turn off the heating and air conditioning system and make sure it remains off until the damage can be inspected.
  • Do not attempt to eliminate the problem with bleach. Doing so will only provide a cosmetic solution to the problem. It will not eliminate the source of the mold
  • Most molds are not immediately harmful, so don’t panic. Reactions to mold vary greatly from person to person.
  • If you or anyone else in the building is experiencing an allergic reaction that you think may be related to mold, see a doctor immediately.
