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 Olympia

Our local pros provide mold removal services in Olympia and the surrounding area, including Quixote Village. Budd Inlet pinches the South Sound into a shallow basin, and the Deschutes drops over a falls into that same tide-held water just below the Capitol.

Housing stock

Building in Olympia clusters in the early 1980s: the median unit dates to 1982, with 60.6 percent finished before 1990. Frame on crawlspaces and basements, median 1982, a mix of tideflat fill near the inlet and later houses on glacial till benches that shed toward it.

Climate and water risk

Of the 59.01 inches that arrive in an average year, 9.67 fall in November; the 1991–2020 normals come from a gauge 1.2 miles away at OLYMPIA 1.3 S. November's 9.67 inches is a dark-season dump on a basin the tide already fills. Fill along Budd Inlet stays wet from below; till benches pass the same rain downslope into those flats, and the Deschutes cannot outlet until the tide drops.

Common moisture and mold problems in Olympia

  • Tideflat fill along Budd Inlet holding November rain and Sound water in 1980s crawlspaces together
  • Deschutes outlet locking when a high tide meets the November peak, backing water onto the lowest streets
  • Till benches shedding every roof toward the inlet so downhill lots take water that never fell on them
  • Capitol-campus and downtown fill over old tide marsh that never fully drained after the channel was bulkheaded

Frequently asked questions

The Deschutes falls are downstream. How do they matter to a crawlspace uphill?

They mark the point the river meets a tide it cannot push. November rain plus a high Sound means the outlet is closed, and the backup shows in the flats, not at the falls. An uphill till lot is a different job — that water is coming down the bench, not up the river.

We sit on fill near the inlet. Is that still a rain problem?

It is a tide problem that rain makes worse. Fill over marsh stays charged from the Sound. November then adds what the ground cannot take. A crawlspace there can smell damp in a dry week because the tide is the standing source; the storm is the extra.

The house is on a till bench. Should the inlet still be checked?

As a destination, yes. Every roof and yard on that bench is a catchment for the next lot down. A downspout that ends at the property line is discharging onto someone else's foundation whether anyone intended it. The inlet is where that water wants to go; the wet wall is where it is delayed.
