“We ended up only needing an additional dehumidifier in our basement and rep was very honest with us that mold was minor and we could try to clean it ourselves for now and then see if it comes back.”
Urbana's older homes hide mold in crawl spaces and wall cavities. Our patented VaPURE™ vapor treats the whole house — surfaces and air — and a third-party lab confirms the result before we close the job.
Urbana has some of the oldest housing stock in Champaign County, and old houses collect the conditions mold needs: stone or tile foundations, crawl spaces with bare earth, plaster walls that have seen a century of roof leaks. Cleaning the patch you can see does nothing about the spores already moving through the rest of the house.
That is the problem VaPURE treatment was built for. The vapor reaches crawl spaces, cavities, and ductwork without opening them up, so a house that would otherwise need weeks of tear-out is usually treated in four to six hours. Our base in St. Joseph is ten minutes up the road.
We work across Urbana — from the older neighborhoods near campus and downtown to homes out toward Philo Road — plus university-area rentals between tenants.
Every service below is available throughout Champaign County, backed by third-party lab verification.

“We contacted Pure Maintenance for a consultation of possible mold in our crawl space. They were very friendly, knowledgeable, thorough, masked and remained socially distanced. Our issue required a very simple solution and we were very pleased with the results. We very much appreciated their honesty and willingness to provide this simple and very cost effective solution without trying to up sell us in any way. I would highly recommend them and certainly use them again if needed.”
“After learning my dryer and bathroom vents were covered up with the new roof, I was concerned about the possibility of mold in my new home. Pure Maintenance came out and did an inspection for me and found that no mold treatment was necessary. I appreciate they were willing to take the time to do this for me. And are going the extra mile in making a suggestion for who could make a repair for me. They also we’re flexible with their scheduling and allowed me to reschedule when needed.”
“I'm happy to report on Pure Maintenance successful treatment of two mold problems. At First Mennonite Church in Urbana. There was a long-term mold problem in a room in the basement and another caused by recent water damage. The mold was detected in the air samples they took before treatment, but reduced to near zero after treatment. The tests were confirmed by the most sensitive noses entering the building. Pure Maintenance also treated a small apartment building. Its basement had a very high mold levels caused by a leaking water heater. It took two treatments, but the mold was knocked out. The cost of the remediation was very reasonable and their service was highly professional.”
“Nick and his crew have been absolutely amazing to work with. As a realtor, we many times are on short inspection guidelines and need prompt bids/services. Nick was extremely quick at getting back to us and took the time to explain the services they offer in detail to ALL parties involved. Could not ask for a better experience and will continue to use their company for any smoke, mold, odor, or virus sterilization!”
