We find where the moisture is coming from, remove affected materials the right way, and document every step. One partner from the first look to the final report.
Mold in a home almost always follows water. These are the places we see it most across Southern Indiana.
Four steps, the same way every time. You always know what is happening and why.
We look at the affected areas, take moisture readings and photos, and identify the likely moisture source. If a qualified specialist is needed to confirm a cause, we say so.
You get a written scope: what is removed, what is cleaned, what is replaced, how the area is contained, and what is not included. One price and a clear response date.
Verified remediation professionals contain the area, remove and treat affected materials, and leave the space clean and dry. Crawlspace work includes a new vapor barrier.
You receive a photo documented completion report. Independent post remediation testing can be arranged when you want third party confirmation.
Remediation removes and treats the materials where growth is present. Correcting the source is the work that keeps it from coming back: drainage and grading, gutters and downspouts, ventilation, dehumidification, plumbing leaks, bath fan venting, or HVAC condensation. Some jobs need both and some need only one.
Your scope will state which one is included. If the moisture or humidity behind the growth is not corrected, growth can return, and we will tell you that in writing rather than leave it for you to find out later.
Mold on an inspection report does not have to stop a closing. We scope and price each item line by line against your response date, give buyers and sellers a clear written plan, and close out with a photo report you can hand to the other side.
Not always. Visible growth generally needs to be addressed whether or not it is tested. Testing is most useful when you smell a musty odor but cannot find the source, or to confirm results after the work. When testing is done after remediation, we arrange a tester who is independent of the crew that did the work.
It depends on the size of the affected area, access, and which materials have to be removed or replaced. Crawlspace jobs normally include a new vapor barrier. You get a written, itemized scope with one price before any work starts, and nothing changes without a signed change order.
Mold grows where moisture stays. Remediation removes and treats the affected materials, but if the moisture or humidity behind it is not corrected, growth can return. Your scope will say plainly whether source correction is included or priced separately.
Wardmark manages every job from the first visit to the final report. Containment and removal are performed by verified remediation professionals where the job calls for them. You have one point of contact the whole way.
Yes, that is a large part of what we do. Tell us the response date and we will scope and price the mold items line by line so buyers, sellers and agents can make a decision on time.
Often, yes. If the area is small and the material is hard and non porous, we will tell you that and explain how to handle it safely instead of selling you a job you do not need.
Send us a few photos and tell us where it is. We respond within four hours.
