Mold After Plumbing Leak in Burlington, IL: common questions
How can I tell if a leak caused mold?

Usually no. The work area is sealed under negative air, so most of the Burlington home stays livable. On a larger job, the technician on site will say if it is better to step out for a day.

Shutting off the water source helps. Leave any moldy material undisturbed for proper assessment before cleanup.
