Mold remediation means removing mold from a building and fixing the moisture that let it grow. The CDC says mold grows wherever there is moisture, like around a leaking pipe or after a flood. Hukill's does mold remediation across Medford and the Rogue Valley, in Jackson and Josephine Counties.
Our plumbers track down the water with leak detection and stop it at the source. Then our restoration team contains the area, removes the mold, dries what stays and rebuilds what came out. We look at the job first and put the quote in writing. Call or text (541) 734-9000 to tell us what you found.

A leak gives mold the steady moisture it needs. EPA guidance says to dry water-damaged areas and items within 24 to 48 hours to prevent mold growth. Drywall and carpet pad that stay wet past that window give mold a place to start.
Slow leaks do the most hiding. A drip behind a wall can feed mold on the back of the drywall, out of sight. The Oregon Health Authority offers a simple rule. If you can see mold or smell a musty odor, you typically have a mold problem.
That is why mold remediation starts with the water. Whether the source is a supply line or a drain, our plumbers repair it before any mold comes out. The CDC says the same: clean up the mold and fix the moisture problem.
Containment comes first. It keeps spores inside the work area while moldy materials come out. EPA guidance generally recommends limited containment with plastic sheeting for areas of 10 to 100 square feet. For areas over 100 square feet, it recommends full containment kept under negative air pressure.
Next, the moldy materials come out. EPA says wet porous materials with mold growing on them may have to be thrown away. Drywall and carpet are common examples. Hard surfaces can usually be scrubbed clean with detergent and water, then dried completely.
Drying and the rebuild come last. Our restoration team dries the framing and subfloor, the same structural drying used in water damage restoration. Then we rebuild the walls and floors that came out. When the mold was in a kitchen or bathroom, the rebuild can tie into kitchen and bathroom remodeling.
Medford averages about 18 inches of precipitation a year, and most of it falls in the cool months. NOAA's 1991 to 2020 climate averages put about two thirds of it between November and March. December is the wettest month, while July averages about a quarter inch.
The Oregon Health Authority lists leaky roofs and clogged gutters among the household problems that lead to mold. It also notes that moisture can collect on cold surfaces, like single-pane windows and uninsulated walls. The ground gets wetter in winter as well. In the Medford soil series, NRCS records a water table 3 to 6 feet down from December to April.
A damp crawl space can feed mold on the joists and subfloor above it. Mold remediation clears the mold, and crawl space repair deals with the dampness. That can mean drainage, a sump pump, a vapor barrier or encapsulation. In the dry summer months, a damp spot inside the house can point to a hidden plumbing leak.

Got our water heater changed out this evening and the whole process was smooth. From setting up an appointment, communication, and the service. Marcos our technician that installed the water heater was great and made sure we got everything we needed in a timely manner. Recommend hukills to anyone looking for a quick or detailed repair!
Brandon and Colton did an outstanding job fixing our clogged sinks. They arrived within three hours of our call, were professional and courteous, and quickly diagnosed and resolved the issue. They explained everything clearly and left the work area clean when they were finished. We really appreciated their prompt response and excellent service. I highly recommend Hukill's to anyone looking for reliable, efficient plumbers.
