Environmental Testing & Damage Restoration in Springfield, MO | Lee Safety

Environmental testing starts with a visual inspection of your home, focusing on areas where moisture collects: basements, crawl spaces, and around window wells. We also check for hidden humidity from groundwater. We take air samples and surface samples to identify mold species and spore counts. This testing pinpoints the source of the problem, whether it's from a leaky water heater or groundwater intrusion, so we know exactly what remediation is needed.

Yes, but it depends on the extent of the damage. In Springfield, freeze-thaw cycles can cause water to seep under hardwood floors. We first test for mold and moisture levels. If mold is present, we contain the area and remove affected flooring. After remediation, we restore the subfloor and install new flooring that is sealed to resist future moisture. Our damage restoration team works to return your home to a safe, dry condition.

Homes near the James River floodplain or in low-lying areas around Pleasant Hope are prone to groundwater intrusion. The water enters crawl spaces and basements, creating high humidity and mold growth. We address this by sealing and installing proper drainage in window wells and around the foundation. This stops water from migrating under your home and reduces the moisture that fuels mold.
