PuroClean Mold Remediation Services in Spring Branch


Mold thrives in the Gulf Coast heat and humidity, especially after flooding, plumbing leaks, or long-overlooked maintenance issues. In the Spring Branch area, where older ranch homes, new builds, and upscale properties often sit side-by-side, mold can take hold in hidden spaces like wall cavities, crawlspaces, and HVAC systems.

When mold damage is discovered in your home or business, the most critical course of action is to have it remediated as quickly as possible and ensure structural materials remaining are dried as quickly as possible.

PuroClean’s IICRC certified technicians follow industry standards to remediate mold that has infected and or damaged property the right way. Our goal is to return your home or business to a pre-loss condition by taking the following steps.

  1. Establish a scope of remediation and repair by thoroughly inspecting the affected area/s.
  2. Implement engineering controls and containment to prevent cross-contamination of unaffected areas of the building by utilizing negative pressures with HEPA (High Efficiency Particulate Air) air filtration devices.
  3. Develop a remediation protocol to remove contaminates by:
    • Removing compromised materials and contents per industry standards.
    • Thoroughly clean the air by using HEPA air filters devices and HEPA vacuums.
    • Thoroughly clean all surfaces with cleaning solutions that may include EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) registered disinfectants, followed HEPA vacuuming all surfaces again. Once remediation is complete, it is recommended to have a Certified Industrial Hygienist complete a 3rd part clearance test to ensure the building is safe for occupancy. A good source to find a CIH is through ACGIH.org website.

We can provide a complete estimate, including photos, to the agent or adjuster within 24-48 hours. Our commitment to excellence means that you can expect effective, ongoing communication and reporting from us.

Most Common Reasons for Mold Removal in the Spring Branch Area

At PuroClean of Spring Branch, our certified team specializes in fast, effective mold remediation tailored to local property types and neighborhood needs. Mold problems in our region are typically caused by:

Storm and Flood Events

Localized flooding from sudden storms or Barker Reservoir overflow causes hidden moisture under flooring and inside walls. When water infiltrates homes or buildings, particularly in places where it shouldn’t linger, it sets the stage for mold spores to thrive and multiply. Even after the storm subsides, the moisture in walls, floors, and other structural elements can initiate a silent but potentially damaging mold invasion. Prompt action is necessary to remediate the mold.

Leaking HVAC and Plumbing Lines

With our long cooling seasons, improperly drained air conditioning systems often create mold-prone environments in attics and mechanical closets. Many homes in Spring Branch East and Hilshire Village still have older copper or galvanized piping prone to leaks. Plumbing failures, like leaks or blockages, lead to mold growth in a property. When water from these issues seeps into walls or floors, it creates a perfect environment for mold to thrive. When airborne mold spores collide with the excess moisture, it can result in mold colonies. If plumbing problems are not addressed promptly, mold will take hold and require professional mold remediation.

Roof and Window Leaks

High winds during Gulf Coast storms compromise flashing and seals, especially in homes with older or improperly installed roofing. Particularly in mid-century homes or recent flips, water intrusion around flashing can lead to mold behind walls and ceilings. Often, the water will seep into an attic or dark crevice of your roof, enabling mold growth. If the problem is not detected in time, mold can spread, causing structural damage. Mold damage caused by roof leaks requires immediate attention.

Humidity and Ventilation Issues

Garages, attics, and crawlspaces in Spring Branch homes are often under-ventilated, leading to condensation and persistent moisture. Excessive humidity is the ultimate breeding ground for mold growth. When humidity levels exceed 60% RH or higher, especially in enclosed spaces, the air becomes saturated with moisture and result in conditions that can allow mold growth. Areas like bathrooms, basements, crawlspaces, or poorly ventilated rooms are particularly susceptible. High humidity also inhibits proper drying, allowing mold to spread further.

Improper Renovation or Code Violations

Unpermitted additions or poorly executed remodels, particularly in HOA-regulated communities, may lack proper waterproofing or airflow, trapping moisture. We’ve seen cases in deed-restricted communities like Hilshire Village where mold issues arose from improperly ventilated or non-compliant remodeling work. A poorly constructed or sealed building can lead to excessive moisture and water leakage, creating an ideal environment for mold to flourish. Cracks in the foundation, incorrectly installed windows, inadequate insulation, and insufficient ventilation can all contribute to water intrusion, enabling mold growth.

Neglected Property Maintenance

Blocked gutters, clogged A/C drains, and minor leaks turn into mold nightmares when ignored. In some cases, insurance may deny claims due to lack of upkeep. Not performing regular routine maintenance can be a primary reason for insurance companies to deny a claim related to water intrusion.
