Flood cleanup, water removal, and drying for homes and businesses across Theodore, along the I-10 corridor and near Dog River.
Theodore sits along the I-10 corridor south of Mobile, in the lower-lying area around Dog River and the creeks that drain into Mobile Bay. Heavy rain sits longer here than on higher ground to the north, and slow-draining yards, damp crawl spaces, and water creeping in at slab edges are common after big storms.
Low-lying drainage near Dog River is the main factor. During heavy rain or a tropical storm, water can back up in yards and against foundations, and in the worst cases it gets inside. Even without flooding, water sitting against a house for days raises the odds it seeps in. And after a storm, the humidity stays high, so any area that got wet needs to be dried fast before mold starts.
Theodore is a family area, home to Theodore High School and several elementary schools, so many of the homes we work in have kids living there. If your property took on water during a storm, or a room still smells damp even though it looks dry, it’s worth getting moisture readings before mold gets into the flooring or walls.
