Professional Mold Removal - Done the Right Way, Step by Step

Each stage is performed by the independent remediation contractor the call reaches, following industry standards.

  1. Step 1: Assessment

    An assessor identifies the presence of mold, determines how far the growth extends, and locates the source of moisture.

  2. Step 2: Containment

    Protective barriers and negative air pressure are established to prevent spores from spreading into unaffected areas.

  3. Step 3: Removal

    Porous materials that cannot be safely cleaned are removed — including drywall past the moisture line, insulation, carpet pad, and damaged cabinet bases.

  4. Step 4: Drying

    Commercial dehumidifiers and air movers return the structure to a dry standard, with moisture readings taken from the material itself rather than the surface.

What drives moisture problems in Danville

The Danville area independent local pros cover for mold removal takes in the whole city and the streets around it. This is the Hendricks County seat on the till plain west of the metro, where half the housing has gone up since 1990 on ground that was drained farm field a generation ago.

Housing stock

Only 51.3 percent of the housing here went up after 1989; the median construction year is 1991. Newer frame subdivisions on basements and slabs around an older courthouse-square core, a median year of 1991, and about half the stock standing before 1990.

Climate and water risk

June is the wettest month here at 5.65 inches, part of an annual 43.89 inches in the 1991–2020 normals from DANVILLE 3 SW, 2.7 miles off. June leads at 5.65 inches of a 43.89 inch year, as summer storms on a till plain whose soil has a dense, slowly permeable layer a couple of feet down. The subdivisions here went in over farm fields that were drained by tile, and a June downpour that the tile once carried off now sits on that dense layer, saturating the backfill around basements that were dug straight through it.

Common moisture and mold problems in Danville

  • A dense subsoil layer two feet down that perches June rain above it and around every basement dug through it
  • 1990s subdivisions on former farm fields where the field tile was cut and left to drain into the backfill
  • Backfill around newer basements settling for a decade and reversing the fall the builder set at handover
  • Courthouse-square houses on old brick foundations taking water from downspouts that end at the wall

Frequently asked questions

The soil report for the subdivision mentioned a hardpan. What does that mean for a basement?

It means water cannot go down. Till plain soils here have a dense layer a couple of feet below the surface that rain passes through very slowly, so a June storm saturates the ground above it and then sits. A basement dug through that layer is ringed by loose backfill that fills with water from above and cannot drain from below. The hardpan is why the backfill stays wet, and why the walls are damp after every heavy storm.

The house is thirty years old. Should the grade around it still be settling?

It can be, and on this ground it often is. The trench around a basement is filled with disturbed soil that consolidates slowly, and clay-rich till consolidates for longer than most. A grade that fell away from the wall when the house was new can be flat or reversed now, so water that was meant to run off is delivered to the foundation instead. Re-establishing the fall is cheap; it is simply not something anyone checks after the first year.

We are in one of the older houses near the square. Is the risk the same?

It is a different one. Those houses sit on brick or block foundations a century old that never had footing drains, but they were built on ground that had been draining naturally for a long time, not on freshly cut field tile. Their exposure is at the downspouts, which on older houses usually end at the wall and put the whole roof onto the foundation in a June storm. Carrying that water away does more than anything below grade.
