Covington is the parish seat and the oldest town on this side of the lake, laid out where the Bogue Falaya meets the Tchefuncte. That puts the housing in three bands: raised early-1900s cottages in the downtown grid and along the river, 1960s-to-80s slab ranches on the roads out toward Highway 190, and the subdivisions that have filled in off Highways 21 and 1085 since 2005. The river lowlands flood when a wet week stacks up, and pine shade keeps the lots damp.
We remove mold in Covington. Call and tell us which room, what you smell or see, and what got wet.
The downtown cottages bring crawl space calls — a musty smell up through the floor after the river has been in the yard. The newer subdivisions bring the quieter kind: one closet that never smells right, a ring around a vent, a ceiling stain under the attic unit, which is mold odor removal or HVAC and duct mold work. Newer doesn’t mean mold-proof.
Say which room, what you see or smell, and roughly when it started. We remove mold; we don’t test.
Musty room in Covington? Call and tell us where the smell is strongest.
Raised cottages in Old Mandeville and older houses along the rivers sit over damp ground that never sees sun. Joists and subfloor cleaned in place, wet insulation out, the space set up to stay drier.
One closet or back bedroom that never smells right in a house that looks fine. We find the growth behind the smell and remove it instead of covering it up.
Containment, negative pressure, and the wet drywall, trim, and insulation out of the house — then the framing cleaned and dried before anything gets closed back up.
A dark patch on a ceiling, a wall, or a baseboard after a leak that ran a while. The color doesn’t change the removal; the moisture behind it is what matters.
Growth through several rooms after surge, a roof that leaked all summer, or a house that sat closed up wet. One sequenced plan, room by room, with one report at the end.
Staining on the roof deck above the air handler, a bath fan that ends in the attic, or a leak around a vent boot. Cleaned in place with the attic sealed off from the house below.
The ceiling over the shower, the wall behind the tub, the floor around the toilet. Small rooms that stay wet, and the removal that holds once the water is handled.
Musty air the moment the system starts, or a dark ring around one supply vent. Growth at the coil, in the plenum, or in wet flex duct — cleaned or replaced so it stops spreading.
