What we do

The services you need when water, mold, or odor hits.

01WATER

Water Removal & Mitigation

We extract standing water, map moisture in floors and walls, and keep drying equipment running until readings are back to pre-loss conditions—not until the room merely looks dry. Wet furniture, carpet, and other household belongings are cleaned and dried with the structure.

02MOLD

Mold Remediation

We find the moisture source, contain the work area, remove contaminated materials, and deodorize what stays. When sampling is part of the job, samples go to PriorityLab; we do not close the work until those results come back clear for the sampled area. Belongings affected by mold are cleaned or removed with the same plan.

03ODOR

Odor Removal & Deodorization

We locate what is holding the smell—musty materials, sewage, a trauma scene, or affected contents—then clean or remove that source before any deodorization. The work is done when the scoped rooms are livable and the odor is gone, not when fragrance has covered it.

Who we are

It started with mold in our own house. We have kept it out of other people's homes ever since.

SCCS NWI was founded in 2012 by Vinnie Nowarita, after hidden mold made his own son sick. After that, Vinnie set a few rules he still runs the company by: do the work right the first time, leave the house cleaner than you found it, and treat people the way you would want your own family treated.

We are independently owned, not a franchise. You work directly with the crew doing the job, never a corporate call center, and your pricing stays honest because there are no franchise fees built into the bill.

Independent lab partner

PriorityLab

We collect. PriorityLab analyzes.

SCCS NWI partners with PriorityLab, an independent AIHA-accredited environmental microbiology lab (EMLAP, Laboratory ID LAP-102988). The report is their analysis of the samples we collect.

The lab identifies mold types in the sample. A report is not a medical diagnosis.

Your report
Usually 2 business days

How the process works

  1. 01

    Inspect

    We walk the property first. Sampling only happens when it answers a defined question.

  2. 02

    Collect

    Air samples (indoor compared with outdoor around the same time), a surface sample from a specific spot, or both.

  3. 03

    PriorityLab analyzes

    Independent AIHA LAP EMLAP lab (LAP-102988). Analysis is the same day they receive the samples.

  4. 04

    You get the report

    You usually get the written report in 2 business days. We walk through what it does and does not mean.

What they test

  • Air samples

    Indoor air compared with outdoor air taken around the same time. The lab looks for mold spores and other particles in the air.

  • Surface samples

    A sample from a spot you can see or strongly suspect. The lab identifies the types of mold on that surface.

  • What the report can show

    Mold types in the sample, growth structures, spores, and other common indoor particles. It is not a medical diagnosis.

For real estate professionals

Realtors trust SCCS NWI for inspection and mitigation.

Trusted by Northwest Indiana realtors — SCCS Specialty Cleaning and Contracting Services

When a home inspection turns up water or mold, we inspect the condition, mitigate it, and document the work so the property can pass re-inspection — and the deal can stay on track.

Built around your deadlines

We schedule quickly and turn the work around to fit your closing timeline, not the other way around.

Documentation you can hand off

Photo reports and a clear, written scope of work for buyers, sellers, and lenders.

Done so it passes re-inspection

We find and fix the source, not just the surface, so the property holds up when it is checked again.
