Mold is never fun to find, especially after seeing that it has spread throughout multiple areas of the home or building. It’s also not easy to remove. In fact, you shouldn’t try to remove it yourself as doing so can “aggravate” it and cause it to spread further, not to mention cause health issues if not done properly.
The technicians of Innovative Cleaning & Restoration LLC are available in the O’Fallon, MO area to assist homes and commercial buildings with professional mold remediation. Our technicians use professional products and equipment to remediate the fungus at its source, eliminating all spores to ensure it won’t return in the future.
Mold Removal
While it is possible to prevent mold, it can be near impossible with high humidity levels. As it only requires moisture and an organic food source, such as drywall, wood, or carpeting to grow, it can grow almost anywhere. But leaving the cleanup job to a professional is essential when it comes to protecting your health and safety.
Innovative Cleaning & Restoration LLC always uses personal protective equipment (PPE) in all mold removal projects. This allows us to handle the job safely while eliminating it at the source. This is done with commercial-grade products specifically designed to eradicate the spores while preventing them from growing back in the future.

Mold Damage Cleanup – What NOT to Do:
- Do not touch any moldy surfaces with bare hands.
- Do not place a fan directly in front of the mold.
- Do not caulk or paint over any moldy surfaces.
- Do not try any home remedies to remove the mold yourself.
While mold can be annoying and difficult to remove, it is essential to avoid all contact. This is because the fungus can release spores if “aggravated” and spread even further. Mold must always be handled professionally in order to eliminate all of it. Our technicians will do this as well as remove any lingering odors caused by the fungus.
Innovative Cleaning & Restoration LLC is available in the O’Fallon, MO area at (636) 492-3030 to provide professional mold removal and remediation services for all property owners. We can also work with insurance companies to assist with open claims.

"Nick was absolutely amazing! He was the only company to come in my home and respectfully bid the job in a matter of minutes. He thoroughly broke down the important factors that needed addressed and answered all of my questions I had the day of the initial bid. The crew and himself used all proper containment needed to ensure my home was not damaged further by any demo they had to perform. After the job was complete, he has since returned correspondence and double checked to ensure I was happy with the completed work they had performed. They are the most professional and customer appreciative company I have come in contact with. I RECOMMEND INNOVATIVE CLEANING AND RESTORATION LLC. TO EVERYONE WITH A 5 ☆ RATING. they are great!"
Review by Matthew Bales
"Nick and his worker were fantastic in finding my burst pipes in the dry wall, cleaning the water damaged areas, and going above and beyond to take care of what needed to be done. He went to multiple stores to get needed parts and lit my pilot light in my water heater (which I didn’t even think of as a necessary fix). Highly recommend their services."
