Damage Restoration and Mold Remediation | Jett Clean Recovery | Norfolk, VA

You might notice soft spots under the sink, a musty smell, or warping on the cabinet floor. Sometimes you’ll see peeling paint or a small water stain on the wall below the sink. In Norfolk’s humid climate, even a tiny leak can quickly lead to mold growth. If you catch these signs early, Jett Clean Recovery can dry the area and treat for mold before the damage spreads.

First we remove standing water and dry the basement with industrial fans and dehumidifiers. Then we inspect for mold, which often grows behind walls or under flooring after a flood. We contain the affected area, remove any moldy materials like drywall or carpet, and clean surfaces with antimicrobial treatments. Finally, we test the air to ensure it’s safe. In neighborhoods near the Elizabeth River or Lafayette River, this is a common service we do year-round.

Water from a skylight can seep into the ceiling, insulation, and walls without visible signs right away. In Norfolk’s damp weather, trapped moisture can cause mold in as little as 48 hours. Professional drying uses moisture meters and air movers to reach hidden pockets of water. Jett Clean Recovery ensures the structure is completely dry, then we address any mold and repair the damage. It’s not just about fixing the leak—it’s about preventing bigger problems later.
