If you see mold right now
Three things to do while you wait
Stop the moisture
Shut off any active leak and wipe up standing water. Mold needs moisture to spread, so cutting the water source first slows it down.
Keep the area closed
Avoid disturbing or scrubbing heavy growth. Close doors to the room so spores are not spread through the rest of the home.

Local knowledge
Why Leighton homes get mold
Leighton homeowners know Iowa weather is hard on houses. Moisture finds its way into basements and crawl spaces across Mahaska County, and mold follows close behind.
It usually starts with water: a drip under a sink, humidity that never quite clears, or seepage after a storm. Given a few damp days, mold spreads across drywall, framing, and flooring.
Whatever the size, the work area is contained, the growth is removed to the IICRC S520 standard, and the space is left dry and rechecked. Call and a crew can usually reach Leighton the same day.
- Central air conditioning condensation feeding mold on cool basement walls
- Spring thaw and river flooding pushing water into older basements and crawl spaces
- Humid continental summers that keep indoor moisture high for months at a time
- Older Leighton homes with finished basements and low ventilation that let damp air linger
Many Leighton homes also run a radon mitigation system, and those fans and pipes sit right where basement and crawl-space mold tends to start. The technicians work carefully around them, so the mold is cleared without disturbing your mitigation.
Whatever started it, the moisture source gets found first, because mold always returns if the water problem is left behind. The methods follow public guidance from the EPA and the CDC on handling indoor mold safely.
