Mold remediation in Omaha, Council Bluffs, Fremont and the surrounding areas

If there's something homeowners fear, it's the growth of mold. Outside, mold is an important part of the ecosystem as it helps break down elements for decomposition. However, in your house, mold is dangerous and destructive.


Mold spores are resilient and opportunistic. They can remain in a dormant state for long periods of time until the conditions are right with moisture and warmth. When mold spores encounter those conditions indoors, they can over-produce and cause major health problems and property damage. At this point, mold remediation is necessary.


When people speak of mold removal, they really mean mold remediation. Actual removal is impossible, but at Maxim Cleaning & Restoration, we can remove the source of moisture that has triggered active growth. Then, we can kill and remove the active mold spores, the mold carcasses, and the mycotoxins they produce.


These processes require the right knowledge, training, skill, products, and equipment. There is a right way and a wrong way to handle mold remediation. Be sure you have the right plan and the right professionals on your mold remediation team. You need Maxim Cleaning & Restoration for all your issues with household mold today.

Common Questions About Mold Remediation

  • What’s the difference between mold and mildew?

    Mold and mildew are basically just different types of fungi. Mildew is a surface fungus that is light in color. It can be easily scrubbed clean from most surfaces. Mold, on the other hand, is generally black or green and is usually more deeply ingrained. Both can have harmful effects on your health and home if left untreated.

  • What causes mold to grow?

    Invisible and tiny spores enter the home or building through any opening. This includes vents and otherwise undetectable leaks. Spores constantly cycle through your home. The spores can settle on any surface.


    • Wood
    • Wallpaper
    • Insulation
    • Painted surfaces
    • Ceiling tiles
    • Carpets

    To grow on these surfaces, these spores need latent moisture and humidity. The higher the humidity, the faster they can grow. When the spores settle in a damp area, they will start to grow and destroy the surface they landed on.

  • Can I remove mold myself?

    Mold is a serious problem, and we don’t recommend untrained removal. Incorrectly treated mold can make the problem worse. Mold remediation should be completed in a confined area with negative airflow, high-level containment barriers, and commercial grade anti-microbial products to prevent the mold from reoccurring.

  • What are the symptoms of mold irritation?

    Mold can start to grow before you even know it’s there. Sometimes, you may notice physical symptoms of irritation before the mold is visible.


    An over-saturation of mold particles and spores in the air can cause numerous physical health problems to anyone living in the proximal environment. Mold can provoke asthma attacks, complicate breathing, and even induce nausea. Here are just a few more possible symptoms of mold irritation:


    • Nasal congestion
    • Throat irritation
    • Coughing, wheezing, or trouble breathing
    • Eye or skin irritation
    • Headaches
    • Fatigue

    If you experience any of these problems regularly in your own home, you may need mold removal and mold remediation services. When in doubt, always discuss your symptoms with your healthcare provider.

  • What should I do if I discover mold?

    Finding mold can be quite overwhelming at first. That’s why you need to know how to respond safely and effectively.


    • Stay out of the affected area
    • Turn off heating and air conditioning systems and fans
    • Don’t touch or disturb the mold
    • Don’t blow air across areas with visible or suspected mold
    • Don’t try to clean or dry the area yourself
    • Don’t spray bleach or other disinfectants

    Contrary to popular misinformation, using bleach on a porous surface such as wood, drywall, or concrete can actually make mold worse. Instead, at the first sight of mold, work with a mold remediation expert. Contact Maxim Cleaning & Restoration to start the remediation process immediately.

Have air quality concerns in your home? Get with Gabe and his amazing team at Maxim. They did an awesome job for us. After many years of home renovation projects, we needed to get the dust out of our air ducts. It made a huge difference for us, and Maxim was awesome to work with.

From the first phone call until the end of our project, Maxim was amazing. They were very friendly, professional, and efficient. The office staff was very helpful in regards to submitting things to insurance. Courtland was the hardest working person I’ve seen. I would recommend Maxim to everyone.
