Fast, professional mold removal

What a licensed remediation job actually involves, in the order it happens. Every step below is the contractor's work, not ours.

  1. Step 1: Assessment

    A licensed assessor establishes whether there is growth, how far it extends, and where the moisture is coming from.

  2. Step 2: Containment

    Barriers and negative air pressure go up first, so disturbing material does not move spores into clean rooms.

  3. Step 3: Removal

    Porous material that cannot be cleaned comes out - drywall cut past the moisture line, insulation, carpet pad, cabinet bases.

  4. Step 4: Drying

    Dehumidifiers and air movers bring the structure back to a dry standard, with readings logged from the material rather than the surface.

What drives moisture problems in Juneau

The Juneau area our local pros cover for mold removal takes in Lemon Creek and Vanderbilt Hill. Gastineau Channel funnels southeast storms onto a bench between muskeg and ice, so September's 11.57 inches of an 88.54 inch year lands on Lemon Creek outwash and on Douglas Island houses that take the same rain off a different face of the channel.

Housing stock

The median home in Juneau dates to 1982, and 70.3 percent of the stock was already standing when the 1990s began. Post-statehood frame on pilings and crawlspaces, a 1982 median with 70 percent standing before 1990, perched on Gastineau muskeg, on Lemon Creek outwash, and across the channel on Douglas where the slope is steeper and the wood never dries.

Climate and water risk

September is the wettest month here at 11.57 inches, part of an annual 88.54 inches in the 1991–2020 normals from JUNEAU-DOUGLAS WWTP, 9.6 miles off. September's 11.57 inches is the peak of an 88.54 inch year at the Juneau-Douglas plant. Sitka's October is muskeg on a drowned fjord; Ketchikan's November is 157 inches on switchbacks. Here the rain is a channel funnel onto Lemon Creek outwash and a Douglas face the plant gauge sits beside, and a 1982 crawl on that muskeg never gets a dry month.

Common moisture and mold problems in Juneau

  • Gastineau Channel funneling September cells onto Lemon Creek outwash that holds water under 1982 crawls
  • Douglas Island slopes shedding the same storm onto a steeper face than the Juneau bench
  • Muskeg under hillside pilings that bleeds for weeks after the channel gauge has dropped
  • Avalanche-chute drainages dumping snowmelt onto the uphill wall of houses the chutes were never mapped around

Frequently asked questions

Sitka and Ketchikan are wetter. Why is an 88-inch year the problem here?

Because the rain hits a channel bench and an outwash fan, not a drowned fjord or a switchback harbor. Sitka's muskeg is tidal. Ketchikan's is a cliff. Juneau's is Lemon Creek gravel and a Douglas face. September here is a funnel, not a total. The plant gauge is local; the crawl is on that outwash.

The house is on Douglas. Is the channel still the source?

The channel is the funnel. The slope is the job. Douglas takes the same September cell on a steeper face, so the uphill wall weeps while the Juneau bench ponds. Treating both sides as one waterfront misses which way the rain is running.

Lemon Creek looks like a ditch. How does it wet a crawl a street off?

It is glacier outwash. The water in the gravel is the table under the floor. September fills that fan, and a 1982 crawl on pilings sits in it with no overtopping. Looking at the creek banks will miss the job under the house.
