A leak last month. Carpet pulled up. The room still smells musty. That is the usual path from water to a mold question.

Restore Pro SD matches you with a licensed independent restoration professional. We do not send a brand crew. The customer contracts with that professional.

Direct answers

Does water damage grow mold? It can, if materials stay wet. EPA guidance is to fix plumbing leaks and other water problems as soon as possible and dry items completely.

Is there a 48-hour brand clock? This page does not publish one. Ask the independent professional how they will dry the assembly and how they will know it is dry.

If you already see growth. Ask an independent tester if you want sampling. Restore Pro SD does not perform testing. Mold remediation is a matching page, not a brand crew.

Sewage or other contaminated water. EPA says to call a professional experienced with that work.

Extraction is not the whole job

Getting bulk water off the floor is not the same as drying drywall, pad, and wood. Ask the independent professional what they will measure after extraction. See structural drying and wet drywall.

When to call

If the leak is stopped and the room still smells, the floor feels soft, or you can see growth, get a moisture assessment.
