Damage Restoration Saint Louis | Elite Construction | 24/7 Service

Common signs include unexplained water stains on walls or ceilings, peeling paint or wallpaper, a musty odor, and sudden increases in your water bill. In Saint Louis, where many homes have older plumbing, these leaks often go unnoticed until significant drywall damage occurs. If you spot these signs, it's crucial to call a professional for leak detection and restoration to prevent mold growth.

In condos, water damage can spread quickly between units. We first identify and stop the water source, then dry the area thoroughly using industrial equipment. For mold, we contain the affected space, remove contaminated materials like drywall, and apply antimicrobial treatments. Our team ensures the job meets local building codes and works with your condo association to minimize disruption.

Hidden pipe leaks often stem from aging copper or galvanized pipes common in older Saint Louis structures, corrosion from hard water, or temperature fluctuations during winter that cause pipes to crack. These leaks slowly saturate drywall, leading to structural weakness and mold. Elite Construction uses thermal imaging to locate leaks without tearing out walls unnecessarily.
