What a licensed remediation job actually involves, in the order it happens. Every step below is the contractor's work, not ours.
-
Step 1: Assessment
A licensed assessor establishes whether there is growth, how far it extends, and where the moisture is coming from.
-
Step 2: Containment
Barriers and negative air pressure go up first, so disturbing material does not move spores into clean rooms.
-
Step 3: Removal
Porous material that cannot be cleaned comes out - drywall cut past the moisture line, insulation, carpet pad, cabinet bases.
-
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 Westland
Our local pros take mold removal work across Westland, from the middle out to Norwayne. It was Nankin Township until 1966, a Middle Rouge lake-plain suburb whose Norwayne defense houses were thrown up for the Willow Run workforce and still sit on clay.
Housing stock
Over four fifths of the housing here predates 1990 — 82.8 percent of it — and construction settles around a median year of 1969. A 1969-median ranch and Cape stock on full basements, including the Norwayne wartime grid, poured on lacustrine clay with almost no natural fall.
Climate and water risk
Of the 35.09 inches that arrive in an average year, 3.77 fall in May; the 1991–2020 normals come from a gauge 4.3 miles away at DEARBORN HEIGHTS 1.8 NW. May's 3.77 inches lands on clay that will not take it. The Middle Rouge is a shallow ditch on a lake plain, so melt and May rain sit rather than leave; a basement is then the local low point for the block.
Common moisture and mold problems in Westland
- Lacustrine clay perching May rain in the upper soil instead of letting it down
- Norwayne wartime houses on original footings with no drain tile around the basement
- A Middle Rouge channel too shallow to drain the lake plain after melt and May stack
- Ranch basements on a grade so flat they are the lowest cavities for streets around

Frequently asked questions
The yearly rainfall is not high. Why do these basements still take water?
Because leaving is the problem, not arriving. Thirty-five inches would be manageable on a slope or in sand. On lake-plain clay with a ditch for a river, melt and May rain sit. A basement is a hole in that perched layer. Norwayne basements on that clay are the local low points, which is why a modest May total still fills them.
Is a Norwayne house a different job from a later ranch?
The ground is the same clay. The difference is the assembly. Those wartime houses were built fast, often without a drain or a damp-proof face. A later ranch may have a tile that has since crushed in the same clay. Both wet; the entry path is not the same. Open the original Norwayne footing if the house is wartime; camera the later tile if it is a 1970s ranch on the same clay.
The Middle Rouge is a small creek. Can it still matter?
It matters as the only outlet. When it is full, the lake plain has nowhere to send May rain. Overbank flow is rare; the common job is a backed-up tile and a wet wall with the creek still inside its banks. When the Middle Rouge is full, Garden City and Wayne streets pond with it, and a Westland basement is the unused capacity.
