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 Nashville

Our local pros take mold removal work across Nashville, from the middle out to Germantown Nashville, TN, Downtown Nashville, and East Nashville. Nearly 55 percent of the housing predates 1990, which is the stock that was standing when the Cumberland crested thirteen feet over flood stage in May 2010.

Housing stock

About half of the housing here predates 1990 — 54.8 percent of it — and construction settles around a median year of 1987. Brick ranch and frame housing on crawlspaces dominates, with limestone shelf close to the surface across much of the ridge-and-cove terrain.

Climate and water risk

The nearest long-term record — BERRY HILL 1.6 WNW, 3.2 miles out — puts the annual normal at 54.69 inches, with May heaviest at 5.69. May is the wettest month at 5.69 inches, and that spring peak lands on ground where limestone sits shallow. Water moves through rock seams rather than soaking in evenly, so a crawlspace can take water that fell well uphill and arrived sideways.

Common moisture and mold problems in Nashville

  • Shallow limestone that routes water through seams instead of absorbing it evenly
  • Crawlspaces on cove and hillside lots receiving flow that entered the ground uphill
  • Spring rainfall peaking in May on soil already carrying winter moisture
  • Rapid post-2000 building on graded lots where the cut-and-fill line becomes a water path

Frequently asked questions

Why does a crawlspace here flood when the yard looks dry?

Because on limestone the water is not traveling across the surface. It enters the ground somewhere uphill, moves through rock seams and fill, and surfaces wherever the excavation opened a path. A dry lawn and a wet crawlspace are entirely consistent with each other in this terrain.

Does a 2010-scale flood have anything to do with a normal wet spring?

Only in what it revealed. The record event showed which parcels sit in the path when the ground cannot take more water. Ordinary May rain uses the same routes at lower volume, so the properties that took water then are usually the ones with recurring crawlspace moisture now.

New construction, still damp underneath. Is that normal?

It is common on graded lots. Cutting into a slope and backfilling creates a boundary between disturbed and undisturbed soil, and water follows that seam. The house can be five years old and the drainage still be routing water toward it, because the grading was set for the original contour.
