This Middleton Wisconsin homeowner called SERVPRO of Madison North & East when they discovered that their water heater had been leaking  for a while causing a strong musty smell to develop in their home.

As experts in water and mold remediation, SERVPRO of Madison North & East are trained to identify and eliminate offensive odors. These odors can come from a number of sources both inside and outside a structure.  In this particular situation the musty smell was from mold growth caused by the slow water leak.

Water damage often causes powerful odors. The machines we use remove airborne contaminants and control the air quality during the restoration and cleanup process. By identifying the cause of the odor and determining the conditions, the odor can often be removed.
