Goodbee is the crossroads west of Covington where Highway 1077 meets 190 near the interstate, and most of what stands there was built after 2005. The subdivisions off 1077 and 1085 are the newest housing on this side of the parish: slab, foam-insulated, sealed and cooled year-round, on lots that were pine flatwoods a few years ago and still hold water at the low end after a hard rain. Ponchitolawa Creek and the other Tchefuncte tributaries run through the lowest ground.
We remove mold in Goodbee. Call and tell us what you smell, what you see, and how old the house is.
Newer doesn’t mean mold-proof. The Goodbee calls are almost all the sealed-house kind: one closet or bedroom that stays musty, a ceiling stain under the attic air handler, a supply vent with a dark ring, a window that condenses every summer morning. Those are mold odor removal, attic mold remediation, and HVAC and duct mold. A house built in 2015 can have a slow leak that has run since 2018.
Say which room, what you see or smell, and roughly when it started. We remove mold; we don’t test.
Call and describe what you’re seeing in Goodbee.
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.
