Mold and Damp Guides for Hudson County Renters and Owners

Plain answers to the things that decide what you do next: what New Jersey does and does not license, what a tenant can do when a landlord will not act, why a basement here floods in ordinary rain, what an assessment report has to contain to be useful to somebody else, and what moves the price of a removal.

Describe the patch, the smell, and whether the water came up from below or in from outside. That much usually settles which trade this needs, whether it is small enough to handle yourself, and who should be paying for it.

Five quick questions, then your details. It takes about half a minute.

Question 1What are you dealing with?
Question 2Where did the water come from?

This is the question that decides the job in this city. Clean water from a supply pipe can often be dried in place. Water that has come back up a combined sewer is treated as contaminated, so soaked drywall, insulation and carpet are taken out rather than dried. Answer with whatever you know and we will work the rest out.

Question 3Is anything still wet?

The EPA puts mold growth on wet material inside roughly 24 to 48 hours, so this answer sets the pace of everything else.

Question 4What is your position at the property?

Renters outnumber owners in nine of the ten municipalities here, and who holds the duty to fix dampness changes who we talk to, what has to be put in writing, and who ends up paying for it.

Question 5How soon do you want someone out?
Who you are, and which building

Who should we ask for?

How can we reach you?

We call to confirm the details before anyone is sent out.

Where is the property?

The contractor match is by property, not by person, so the street line matters.
