Inspection & Moisture Source
We find the water feeding the mold first — because remediation fails if the moisture source isn't fixed.
Found mold in your Van Wert property? Millers finds the moisture feeding it, contains and removes it to standard, and rebuilds — the right way, the first time.

The same drained Black Swamp geology that gives Van Wert its water problems also sets the stage for mold. Poorly-draining clay soils and a high water table hold moisture against basements and crawlspaces in Ridge Township and near the South Washington Street area, and any dampness that lingers gives mold room to spread through framing and drywall.
We start by finding and stopping the moisture source, because that is what makes remediation last. The Millers Restoration of Bowling Green crew sets containment, removes affected materials, and dries the structure fully before rebuilding.
Family-owned since 1974, Millers has served Van Wert County property owners near Hiestand Woods Park and the Van Wert County Courthouse for decades. Because slow-draining clay keeps pushing water back toward foundations, we address drainage and humidity as part of the job, then reconstruct what was removed so the repair holds up.

Containment and negative air keep spores from spreading to clean areas during removal.
Affected materials are removed and the area remediated to standard, then cleared.
We rebuild the drywall, flooring, and finishes we had to remove.
Millers responds to mold throughout Van Wert and Van Wert County — including these neighborhoods and areas:
The high water table and poorly-draining clay soils of the former Black Swamp keep moisture pressing against Van Wert basements and crawlspaces, leaving materials damp enough for mold to develop. Because the flat terrain holds groundwater rather than draining it, any seepage that isn't fully dried becomes a lasting moisture source.
We measure moisture and locate the source first, since mold here almost always traces to groundwater seepage through the clay soil. After containing the area, we remove affected materials and correct the moisture so the conditions feeding the growth are addressed.
Coverage depends on the cause, so mold following a covered event like a burst pipe differs from mold caused by long-term groundwater seepage. We document the moisture source and conditions thoroughly to give the property owner the clearest basis for a claim.
Don't disturb the growth, which spreads spores through the house, and use a dehumidifier or ventilation to lower moisture where you can. Call us to trace the source, because on Van Wert's high-water-table soils the visible mold is often only part of a wider moisture issue.
