Garland, TX's Proven Basement Waterproofing Contractor

These photos are from a mold remediation job completed in Garland, TX by Olympic Restoration Systems. We were contacted after a homeowner had mold growth confirmed by a licensed mold inspector and needed a licensed mold remediation company. Our Production Team was able to safely and efficiently remove the mold-damaged material and flooring from the unit. In the pictures, you can see where they set up containment and used HEPA vacuums to ensure that mold and other pollutants did not circulate throughout the home during the mold removal process. 

*If you think there is mold in your home, the first step is to contact a licensed mold inspector. Per state law, the licensed mold inspector and licensed mold remediation company must be separate entities. This is a protection for the homeowner. If mold growth is confirmed by a mold inspector, you should be given a mold protocol. The next step is to send this protocol to Olympic Restoration Systems so that you can receive a licensed mold remediation estimate. 

This homeowner contacted Olympic Restoration Systems to complete a crawl space repair and encapsulation in Garland, TX.  A wet crawl space can lead to mold growth, warping hardwood floors inside the home, musty odors, and increased allergies and asthma while in the home. We sent one of our crawl space experts, Wayne, to the home for a free inspection and estimate. Wayne found many issues that caused moisture in the crawl space, including groundwater seepage and open crawl space vents. Wayne designed a solution to keep the crawl space dry, which included installing drainage matting and dehumidifier. This allows for the vents to be closed, and turns the crawl space into a conditioned area. The homeowner was pleased with the solution and pricing and proceeded with a full crawl space encapsulation system from Olympic Restoration Systems.

This customer called Olympic Restorations Systems with a concern that they may have mold/mildew in the vents from the upstairs HVAC unit.  When Olympic Restoration Systems was contacted for a quote for cleaning of the duct work, we scheduled them with one of our Specialists for an assessment and quote. Once received, they proceeded with an air duct cleaning with Olympic Restoration Systems.  We removed the air registers and cleaned them. Then we used a HEPA vacuum for the diffuser box and the surrounding area. We cleaned the ducts using a negative air system combined with compressed air whips to break the debris free from the ducts. With this type of air duct cleaning, each duct is attached to a power negative air machine which draws 3500 cubic feet per minute through the duct and into the system. The system has three stages of filters with the last one being a HEPA filter which assures nothing is released into the home. We used a HEPA vacuum for the coils and the blower. We cleaned the supply and return plenums. We cleaned the plenum by using a HEPA vacuum. We treated it with an EPA registered antimicrobial solution. We finished by re-attaching all the ducts and assuring they were properly sealed.

This homeowner was frustrated with substantial water leakage after every rainfall and decided to call us to waterproof the home.

Upon inspecting the leaks, our team partially removed the lower half of the wall to apply Permaflex waterproofing coating to the root of the issue. Once the two coats of Permaflex were applied, we used new wood to rebuild the newly waterproofed wall.

After a period of rains, this homeowner began to detect problems in his home. The wood floor seemed to be cupping and buckling, along with a persistent musty smell. Our team came out to evaluate. The humidity in his crawl space was high, along with condensation and mold on his subfloor. The homeowner decided to encapsulate. 

First, our team applied Mold-X2 mold killer and stain remover to all the beams, base plates, floor joists, subfloor, and wooden building materials in the crawl space. Next, we installed a SmartPipe perimeter drainage system in crawl space, along with a SmartSump pump system with liner, cast iron pump, CleanPump Stand, airtight lid with an airtight floor drain, and WaterWatch alarm system. We then used CleanSpace drainage matting, along with a CleanSpace vapor barrier to prevent any more moisture issues.

A homeowner was experiencing a musty odor coming into his home from the crawl space. Our team came out to investigate and found excess moisture to the the issue. To remedy the situation, we installed CleanSpace drainage matting under a CleanSpace liner and a dehumidifier to control the humidity in the crawl space. The musty smell was gone and the home owner was reassured he would have no more moisture issues from his crawl space.
