“Had a vapor mold treatment. Courtney and Robin were awesome! Very thorough, great communication. The house feels great!”
A thorough mold inspection finds what's growing, where it's growing, and the moisture source feeding it - before you spend a penny on treatment.
“Had a vapor mold treatment. Courtney and Robin were awesome! Very thorough, great communication. The house feels great!”
“Courtney and team saved the day for my family. They were courteous and very informative with all of the processes of our remediation. I highly recommend this team if you need help.”
“While getting the house ready to sell, we came across several spots of mold in the basement. I called two other remediation companies, but they were either too busy or didn’t return my call. I contacted Pure Maintenance and they were out within 2 days. They thoroughly assessed the entire house, looking for all possible sources, not just the basement. The whole-house vapor treatment was also thorough, resulting in a cleaner, fresher, healthier-smelling house. Their process and follow-up testing, along with their warranty, gives me peace of mind while we go through the selling process. Courtney and Robin were also great to work with. They communicated with me regularly, answering all my questions in a timely manner. I appreciated their experience and expertise as they helped me to navigate this very stressful process.”
“From the first visit, they were kind, patient, and genuinely cared about helping us. They took the time to explain what was happening, what needed to be done, and never made us feel pressured or confused. The crew showed up on time, treated our home with respect, and worked incredibly hard to make sure everything was done right. What stood out most was how much they cared about our family’s health and peace of mind. After the work was completed, we could immediately notice the difference in the air quality and overall smell of the house. It felt like we could finally relax again. We’re truly grateful for their professionalism, honesty, and compassion during a stressful situation. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone dealing with mold problems.”
“Courtney has been great answering questions during the process of remediation. We feel they did a thorough job and are very knowledgeable.”
“This company is very fast at getting an estimate and moving forward. All of there staff are very friendly and answer all the questions I had. Thanks for all of your help!”
“We had mold in several areas of our home, including our basement, kitchen and upstairs bathroom. Courtney and her team did a thorough inspection, successfully cleaned it all up, and came back to re-inspect areas of concern to make sure things were done right. Courtney is very knowledgable about mold and clearly cares about making one's home mold-free and safe. She is quick to respond to questions, and her team was prompt, courteous and detailed. Great experience all around!”
“We are so thankful that we called Courtney to come to our house to take care of our mold. I had been dizzy and experiencing lightheadedness for months and we were just not feeling 100% ourselves. We also have a newborn at home and didn’t want to take any chances with her health. After Courtney and her team came, we noticed an immediate difference; my husband and I are both sleeping really well, we no longer feel like we have a cloud over our heads and we just feel generally very happy. It’s hard to explain, but it just feels like this haze was lifted and we’re finally back to our old selves. We live in a 1950s home and we just thought the musty odor was something we were going to have to live with, but after pure maintenance completed their work the house feels so much fresher, the air is lighter and the musty odor is gone. We couldn’t recommend Pure Maintenance Wisconsin enough! If we ever move again, I will definitely be calling them for a whole house treatment right away, so we don’t have to live like this again.”
You've spotted something dark in a corner, or the house keeps smelling musty every time the AC kicks on, and now you want to know how much more is hiding behind the walls you can't see into. Maybe a test result told you there's a problem without telling you where it's coming from, or you're buying a house and the general inspector flagged moisture and left you with more questions than answers. Whatever brought you here, you want a real answer without the runaround. Pure Maintenance Wisconsin can be out this week and give you a straight read on what's actually happening inside your house, backed up with photos, readings, and lab results if you need them.
A few situations make an inspection the right first move. You've seen growth in a bathroom or closet and you want to know if it stops there. A stain on the ceiling keeps coming back after you dry it. The basement smells musty whenever you open the door. You're buying a place in Dane County and the home inspector flagged moisture without telling you how bad it really is. You're a landlord and you need documented findings before you decide who's paying for what.
Madison houses take a beating from moisture. Summers get humid from June through September, spring snowmelt pushes water against foundations that just spent five months cycling through freeze and thaw, and most older basements on the isthmus and in neighborhoods like Marquette, Tenney-Lapham, and the Near East Side were built with stone or block walls that were never really going to stay dry on their own. Add in the ice dams that soak attic insulation every February, and by the time mould is visible, it's usually been growing somewhere hidden for a while.
We walk the whole property, inside and out. Our NORMI-certified inspector looks at the obvious spots, then checks the places most homeowners never think about: HVAC closets, the back of vanities, basement corners near sump pits, insulation near bathroom exhausts, and the roofline spots where ice dams tend to let water in. Moisture meters and protimeters read what's inside walls and subfloors, so we catch damp material that looks bone dry on the surface. Hygrometers measure humidity in basements and attics, where the numbers are often much worse than the rest of the house.
If we see any sign of hidden growth, we take air and surface samples and send them to an independent accredited lab for species identification and spore counts. You get a written report the next business day with photos, moisture readings, lab results, and a clear list of what needs to happen next. Most inspections take two to three hours on site.
Price depends on the size of your property and how much area we need to cover. A targeted inspection of one problem room is a smaller job than a full assessment of a three story home with a finished basement and a converted attic. You get a clear quote before we show up. No parking fees, no report charges, no travel surcharge inside Dane County, and no follow-up fees once the report hits your inbox. Getting the inspection right the first time is what keeps you from paying twice for remediation that missed the actual moisture source underneath it all.
Pure Maintenance Wisconsin is local, and it matters. Our inspectors have walked thousands of basements across Dane County and know how Madison houses behave when moisture gets in. We offer same-day and next-day appointments for urgent situations, and every inspection is backed by our satisfaction guarantee. We're NORMI-certified, fully insured, and independent of any outside sales quotas. Because we also handle remediation with our vapor process, you get one honest answer about whether treatment is needed. If it isn't, we'll say so and save you the money.
Don't wait for a small patch to turn into a bigger problem that costs four times as much to fix. Call Pure Maintenance Wisconsin at 608-555-0199 to book your mould inspection, and we'll get you real answers this week.
