It isn’t one wall. There’s a water line in every room on the ground floor, or the roof leaked all summer and every ceiling has a stain, or the house sat closed and damp for a year and every closet smells the same. Call and tell us what happened to the house. We handle whole-home mold remediation in Gulfport, Long Beach, Pass Christian, and across the bay, and a big job is still one job with one plan.
We walk the house and map it: which rooms took water, which materials are wet, how far up the wall the moisture reads, what the attic and the space under the floor look like. Then the work runs in sections. Each area gets sealed and put under negative pressure while the drywall, insulation, flooring, and trim that can’t be saved come out, bagged inside the containment. Framing and masonry get cleaned in place, HEPA-vacuumed, and dried. The next section starts when the last one is closed. You know which rooms are open on which days, and you get one written report at the end covering all of it.
If you can put a date on the water, the rest of the conversation goes faster. Surge in 2005, a roof off in 2020, a slow leak that ran while nobody lived there — each one tells us how long the material has been wet and how far the growth has likely spread through the house. CDC says anything wet for more than 48 hours can support extensive growth, and a whole-house job usually means the clock has been running for months. Tell us the story when you call; it’s the first thing we ask.
The whole-house calls on this coast tend to be one of three things. A house south of the railroad in Long Beach or Pass Christian that was gutted and put back together fast after 2005, and now shows a dark line along the base of walls that were closed before they dried. A slab house in Orange Grove or Lyman that lost part of the roof in Zeta and sat under a tarp through a wet fall. Or a house that was shut up for a year — a parent’s place, a beach house, a house waiting on a sale — with the air off and the humidity in. All three are removal jobs. Call and tell us which one is yours.
Standing byDescribe what you see or smell, where it is in the house, and what got wet. If we’re available you’ll be connected right away with the person who does the work. If we’re on a job, you’ll get a scheduled callback, and we’ll tell you which number to watch for so you know it’s us.
Black streaks on the roof deck under a lifted shingle, a bath fan blowing steam into the rafters, a duct sweating onto the insulation all summer. Cleaned in place with the attic sealed from the rooms below.
The ceiling over the shower, the drywall behind the toilet, the floor of the vanity. Small rooms that never dry out on the coast, and removal that holds once the moisture is dealt with.
Gulfport runs the air most of the year, and cold duct in a hot attic sweats. A musty blast when the unit starts is the tell. Growth at the coil, the plenum, or in wet flex duct — cleaned or replaced.
