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 Dearborn

Our local pros provide mold removal services in Dearborn and the surrounding area, including Springwells Park and West Dearborn Downtown. The Rouge's main stem and the Ford plant sit on industrial fill, so the city's water table is a mill river and a factory yard, not a suburban branch.

Housing stock

Building in Dearborn clusters in the early 1950s: the median unit dates to 1952, with 88 percent finished before 1990. Brick and frame on full basements, median 1952, 88 percent pre-1990, including Ford Homes and Springwells stock poured against Rouge alluvium and plant fill.

Climate and water risk

May is the wettest month here at 3.6 inches, part of an annual 35.05 inches in the 1991–2020 normals from DEARBORN, 1.4 miles off. May's 3.6 inches falls on a mill river that already holds the table high. Basements along the Rouge sit in industrial fill that wets from the plant side; a May cell then has no unused room, and combined sewers on the old grid surcharge into the same cellars.

Common moisture and mold problems in Dearborn

  • Rouge main-stem fill holding mill groundwater against 1950s basements
  • Combined sewers surcharging into Springwells cellars when May rain hits a system carrying river water
  • Ford Homes and plant-era walls poured against alluvium with no exterior drain
  • A 1952-median stock with almost no later rebuild to change the assembly

Frequently asked questions

Livonia is the next Rouge city west. Why is the main stem a different May job?

Livonia sits on the Middle Rouge parkway at mill-pond grade in a ranch grid. Dearborn sits on the main stem next to the Ford plant, on industrial fill. Same May family; one is a park corridor, the other is a mill river and a factory yard.

Springwells sits against the Rouge plant. Is that industrial groundwater even when the river is down?

It is. Ford-yard fill holds mill water that does not wait on a street flood. A 1952 basement against that fill is a hole in a plant table, and May rain then adds to a reservoir the Rouge and the yard already set. A down river is not a dry Springwells wall.

Is a Ford Homes brick basement built to drain?

Rarely. Those walls were poured against alluvium for a company town, often with no exterior tile. Seventy years later the assembly is still the original one. Moisture work here is drainage at an old wall, not a new-house flashing detail.
