Mold Removal & Remediation in Sharon, MS
Containment, HEPA filtration, and antimicrobial treatment eliminate mold colonies at the source and prevent cross-contamination throughout the property. Mold remediation removes affected porous materials and corrects the moisture source that allowed growth. The work is done under containment with HEPA filtration so spores are not carried into unaffected rooms, and the area is cleared only once the underlying moisture problem has been resolved.
Quoted on site by the contractor who visits
Remediation is the step after the assessment, not before it. A local pro establishes how far the growth extends and what is feeding it, because removing what is visible while the moisture source is still running puts the same colony back in the same wall. Texas and several other states also set a square-footage point above which the work has to be done by a licensed remediator — the service note below covers where that line falls in this city.

Frequently asked questions
Summer is the humid season on the Gulf. Why call out a January slab stain?
January is the wettest month, and it is cold. Clay takes 6.07 inches slowly when evaporation is near zero, and Tallahala Creek keeps the outfalls from dropping. A summer burst can still leave in a day of heat. A winter burst stays at the pad. The calendar is the local fact. Humidity slogans do not explain a stain that starts in January and is still there in March.
The house is from the 1990s. Should a slab this new wick January rain?
New is not a stem. Many 1992 pads here were poured at grade on clay with no real step, so splash and perched water wet the bottom plate directly. Thirty years is long enough for that detail to show. Adding a grade that falls away, and gutters that discharge past the pad, does more than pointing at the build year. The year explains when it was poured. It does not put a capillary break under it.
Tight skirting on a manufactured home through a Jones County winter. Seal it more, or less?
Less. Winter clay under the home is wet from January through March; tight skirting holds that humidity against the floor. Vent the skirting, put a ground cover down, and keep the pad falling away from the home. Sealing it tighter is how a 6.07 inch month spends the rest of winter under the joists.
