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.
-
Step 1: Assessment
An assessor identifies the presence of mold, determines how far the growth extends, and locates the source of moisture.
-
Step 2: Containment
Protective barriers and negative air pressure are established to prevent spores from spreading into unaffected areas.
-
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.
-
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 Delaware
Independent local pros take mold removal work across Delaware, from the middle out to Delaware Meadows, Sunnyview Farms, and Lexington Glen. The Olentangy is held by Delaware Lake a few miles north, so May's 4.65 inches of a 41.62 inch year lands on a glacial-till town whose downtown already sits in a pool the dam will not let fall.
Housing stock
A little under half of the housing here predates 1990 — 42.4 percent of it — and construction settles around a median year of 1995. A 1995-median mix of older brick on the historic grid and later slabs toward the farm edges, 42 percent pre-1990, the downtown on Olentangy terrace till and the new west side on poorly drained Crosby silt.
Climate and water risk
Delaware averages 41.62 inches of precipitation a year on the 1991–2020 normals, taken at LEWIS CENTER 1.4 E 7.9 miles away, with May the wettest month at 4.65 inches. May's 4.65 inches is a late-spring peak on till. Delaware Lake holds the Olentangy; Delaware Run then has no unused capacity, and a cellar on the historic grid takes the river the dam is already storing.
Common moisture and mold problems in Delaware
- Delaware Lake holding the Olentangy so downtown till cellars never get a May reset
- Delaware Run surcharging through the historic grid when the river is already high
- Crosby silt under 1990s west-side slabs ponding May rain against the plate
- A courthouse-square grid where party-wall cellars pass water between addresses before either owner sees it

Frequently asked questions
The lake is north of town. Why would the dam wet a Sandusky Street cellar?
The dam sets the pool for miles. May rain on a held Olentangy has no drop through downtown, so the extra goes into till and cellars rather than downstream. The lake is not scenery; it is the water table under the historic grid.
A 1995 slab on the west side. Is that still an Olentangy job?
Usually not. That stock sits on Crosby silt that ponds May rain at the plate because the farm tile was cut. The river job is downtown. The silt job is the new west. Treating both as lake flooding misses the farm drainage.
The neighbor's cellar flooded and then ours did. Are they connected?
Through the party wall, in effect. On the square these cellars share masonry, so water entering one moves along the shared wall into the next before either owner sees it. The first address to flood is not necessarily the one with the problem.
