Mold removal in Blanchard: the usual starting points

After a storm. Spring storms lift shingles and push rain past flashing, and the first place it shows is a stain on the ceiling or a dark patch across the roof deck. The fix covers both the roof and the attic; see attic mold removal.

Under the floor. Raised houses over damp ground grow mold on the joists, and the smell works its way up into the rooms. See crawl space mold removal.

Dark growth on walls and ceilings. Often condensation on an outside wall or a slow leak behind it. See black mold removal.

Leaks and burst pipes. If water sat for more than a couple of days, see water damage restoration and mold after a flood.

Assessment and removal are kept apart

In Louisiana a single company may not assess and remediate mold on the same property. For a Blanchard house, an independent assessor visits first, measures the moisture, samples if there is a question about what is growing, and writes a report. A separate contractor prices and carries out the removal, and the assessor comes back afterwards to test the air. For jobs worth $7,500 or more the remediation contractor must hold a Louisiana mold remediation license. See mold inspection and testing.

Blanchard mold removal questions

Do you cover Blanchard for mold removal?

Yes. Blanchard is in the normal service area, at the same prices as Shreveport.

My Blanchard ceiling stained after a storm. Is it mold?

Not necessarily, but it means water reached the ceiling sheetrock, and mold can start above it out of sight. A moisture reading and a look in the attic tell you whether it is still wet and whether growth has begun.

Can the same company test for mold and then remove it?

Not in Louisiana. The law keeps assessment and remediation with separate companies, so an independent assessor tests and a different contractor removes.
