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 Delaware
Our 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.
Columbus is twenty miles south on the same river. Same till cellar?
Columbus sits below other dams and on a different width of the Olentangy. This town sits just under Delaware Lake, in a narrow till valley. May fails here as a held pool against a small grid, not as a metro river with room to spread.
