Fast, Reliable Mold Remediation Across Newnan
Mold remediation in Newnan usually runs $1,800 to $6,500 depending on how far the growth has spread and whether it’s behind plaster, under flooring, or inside a crawl space. Wade Ferris has been answering calls from Coweta County homeowners since 2007, and when you call (888) 690-3757, you get Wade himself, not a call center. We know what Newnan’s humidity does to a vented crawl space and what a 2021 roof patch conceals. If you smell must and can’t find the source, we’ll find it, document it, and fix it right.
Why Wade’s Restoration of Atlanta Is Newnan’s Preferred Mold Remediation Company
Wade’s Restoration isn’t a franchise. Wade Ferris started this company in 2007 and his name is on every truck that pulls into Newnan driveways. When a homeowner off Greenville Street calls at 9 p.m. because a ceiling stain just spread, Wade answers his own phone. He doesn’t route you through a national dispatch board. He asks what you’re seeing, tells you what to do next, and heads out. That’s the whole model.
Newnan homeowners have dealt with us for years because we publish our address and license number, we show up in uniforms with background checks behind us, and we don’t hand work off to subcontractors. That matters in a town where you’ll see the same people at the Kroger on Bullsboro Drive on Saturday morning. Our Mold Remediation team carries IICRC credentials and works with Dri-Eaz and Phoenix equipment, but what really sets us apart is the daily moisture log. Wade takes readings every single day on every job and hands you the full log when we finish. Almost nobody in this trade does that. You’ll know what the numbers said on day one, day three, and day seven, not just what the tech tells you at the end.
We also deal directly with your insurance adjuster. The 2021 tornado taught Newnan a lot about how complicated claims get. You shouldn’t have to be the middleman between your insurer and your remediation crew. Wade handles that conversation, sends the photo documentation, and makes sure the adjuster sees exactly what we see.
Our Mold Remediation Services in Newnan
Mold Inspection & Testing
Most people call us because they can smell something they can’t see. In Newnan homes, that smell often traces back to a crawl space, a bathroom exhaust fan venting into the attic, or a slow leak behind a wall that’s been feeding mold for months. We start with moisture mapping. That means we don’t rip into drywall or plaster on a guess. We run Dri-Eaz and Phoenix meters across walls, floors, and framing to find where the water is actually coming from. Then we document everything, give you a written scope, and tell you exactly what needs to happen before we touch anything. No mystery, no upsell.
Mold Removal
Once we’ve found the source, removal gets straightforward. We contain the work area with negative air pressure so spores don’t migrate into the rest of your house. We remove affected drywall, plaster, insulation, or flooring. We bag it and haul it out. Then we clean the framing with HEPA vacuums and antimicrobial treatments, dry everything to a measured standard, and verify the moisture numbers before we rebuild. In Newnan’s older homes, this often means working carefully around original trim and heart pine that you don’t want ripped out. We’ve done it hundreds of times. We know how to preserve what matters and remove what’s actually contaminated.
Black Mold Remediation
Black mold, specifically Stachybotrys, thrives in chronically wet cellulose: drywall, ceiling tiles, wood framing. Newnan’s red clay soil holds water against foundation walls, and the region’s humidity keeps materials damp long after the visible leak stops. We see black mold regularly in crawl spaces across 30263 and in attics where roof leaks went unnoticed after the tornado. Our process is the same as any mold job, with tighter containment and more aggressive air scrubbing using XPOWER and B-Air equipment. Every job ends with a clearance moisture reading and the full log in your hands.
Air Quality Restoration
Mold spore counts in a Newnan home after remediation can stay elevated if you don’t address the air itself. We run HEPA air scrubbers during the entire job and then verify post-remediation particle counts before we call the work complete. This matters most in homes where children, older adults, or anyone with asthma lives. Clean air isn’t a buzzword. It’s measurable, and we measure it.

Trusted Brands We Service in Newnan
We don’t use rental-grade machines. Our crews run Dri-Eaz dehumidifiers, Phoenix axial fans, XPOWER air scrubbers, and B-Air containment units on Newnan jobs. That’s professional restoration equipment, the same gear insurance carriers recognize. It means faster drying, more accurate moisture readings, and fewer callbacks. If you’ve got a crawl space under a 1990s subdivision home in 30265 that’s been damp for years, we have the equipment to dry it correctly the first time.
Common Mold Remediation Problems We See in Newnan Homes
- Hidden rafter fractures from the 2021 tornado. A cosmetic roof patch covers the visible damage, but the original hand-cut rafter underneath has a crack that’s been letting rainwater into the ceiling cavity for two years. By the time staining shows on the plaster, the mold’s been growing for months. We trace it back with moisture mapping and fix the actual entry point before we remediate.
- Persistent musty odor in historic plaster walls. Heart pine framing and original lath hold moisture far deeper than modern drywall. Standard fans and dehumidifiers don’t reach it. We use Injectidry systems to pull moisture from inside wall cavities, then treat the framing directly. Skipping that step is why mold comes back.
- Vented crawl spaces in the 1990s-2010s subdivisions. Those newer homes off Lower Fayetteville Road look tight, but their vented crawl spaces sit over red clay that channels water toward the foundation. OSB sheathing soaks up that moisture silently. Homeowners never see it until the smell rises through the floor. Crawl space encapsulation, vapor barriers, and drainage corrections are the standard fix.
- Slow leaks around bathrooms and laundry rooms. In both historic and newer Newnan homes, we find mold where vinyl flooring swelled, behind washing machine lines that dripped for years, and under bathroom vanities where supply lines leaked behind the cabinet. An air quality test won’t fix that. You have to open the wall, find the fitting, stop the leak, then remediate.

FAQs - Mold Remediation in Newnan
We use moisture meters and thermal imaging to map damp areas behind plaster without opening the wall first. Plaster holds moisture differently than drywall, and original lath can wick water laterally, so the visible stain may be far from the actual leak. Once we’ve mapped the affected area, we open only what’s necessary. Then we dry the cavity with Injectidry systems, treat the framing, and restore the plaster. Call (888) 690-3757 for a free estimate on a moisture inspection in Newnan’s historic district.
Because the water source was never addressed. You can spray every surface with antifungal and the mold will return in months if ground moisture keeps rising through the red clay and vented crawl space air stays humid. The fix is a combination of drainage correction, a proper vapor barrier, and either sealing or conditioning the crawl space. Wade’s crew diagnoses the actual water entry point before recommending remediation. Call (888) 690-3757 to talk it through.
Not always. Heart pine is dense, and in many Newnan homes the subfloor below it can be treated from underneath if there is crawl space access. We remove affected boards only when they have lost structural integrity or the mold is too deeply embedded to clean. We work carefully, and we document the process so you can see exactly what was removed and why. Call (888) 690-3757 to have us look at your floors before anyone rips them up.
Yes. We set containment carefully, remove only contaminated material, and handle historic trim with the same care as the plaster around it. We’ve worked Queen Annes, Folk Victorians, and antebellum-era homes throughout Newnan, and we understand that the trim is sometimes worth more than the wall itself. We clean what can be saved and recycle original material for restoration where practical. Call (888) 690-3757 and we’ll take a look before any demo starts.
Most crawl space remediation jobs in those Newnan subdivisions finish in three to five days, including drainage correction, vapor barrier installation, and structural drying. That’s assuming moderate mold growth and standard access. If the mold has moved into the floor assembly or wall framing, add another two to three days. We give you a written timeline with the scope, and Wade updates you daily during the job. Call (888) 690-3757 for a free estimate.
