Lacombe sits on US 190 between Slidell and Mandeville, strung along Bayou Lacombe from the highway down to the marsh at Big Branch. It is unincorporated, old, and shaded — live oaks over cottages and camps that have been on piers for a century, plus newer houses on bigger lots north of the highway. The lower end of Lacombe took surge in 2005, and anything close to the bayou takes water when a strong south wind stacks the lake up against the shore.
Call us about mold in Lacombe. Describe what you see or smell and what got wet. If we’re on a job, you’ll get a scheduled callback from a number you’ll recognize.
The old bayou cottages have low crawl spaces that stay damp all year, and the call is usually a smell that comes up through the floor after rain — crawl space mold remediation. The newer houses under the pines north of 190 lose shingles in storms and get attic mold remediation calls after the roof is patched.
Say where it is, what got wet, and how long ago. We remove mold; testing isn’t something we do.
Call and tell us what you found.
Cold air through a hot attic makes condensation, and a musty blast every time the unit starts is the tell. Growth at the coil, plenum, or in wet flex duct — cleaned or replaced so the system stops moving it around.
Raised houses in Olde Towne, along Bayou Liberty, and every home lifted after Katrina have a damp space underneath. Joists and subfloor cleaned, wet insulation out, and what has to change for it to stay dry.
One room that smells like a wet box after every rain has a reason. We find the material behind the smell, remove it, and clean the cavity — instead of masking it.
Containment, negative pressure, and the wet drywall, trim, and insulation out of the house — framing cleaned and dried before anything gets closed up again.
A dark patch on a ceiling or baseboard after a long leak gets the same removal as any other growth. CDC says the type doesn’t change the job; the water behind it is what matters.
A surge line along every wall, a roof that leaked through a whole season, or a house that sat shut and wet after Ida. Room-by-room containment and removal on one plan, one report.
Dark staining on the roof deck after a leak, a blown-off shingle, or a bath fan dumping into the attic. Cleaned in place with the attic sealed off from the rooms below.
The ceiling over the shower, the wall behind the toilet, the floor of the vanity cabinet. Small rooms that never dry, and removal that holds once the moisture is handled.
