Mold Removal Done Right - and the Moisture Problem that Caused It.
Certified mold removal for homes across PA, NJ, and DE. We don't just remove the mold - we fix the water problem that allowed it to grow.
The Morgan Standard
A written proposal at every inspection. A mold-free environment when we're done.
Mold is never the original problem. It's what happens when moisture has been sitting somewhere long enough. By the time you can see it or smell it, it's usually been growing for a while.
Morgan handles both sides of it. We remove the mold and we address whatever water or humidity issue made it possible in the first place. That's the only way to keep it from coming back.
Signs You May Have a Mold Problem
Mold remediation isn't a cleaning job. Done wrong, disturbing mold colonies spreads spores to parts of the house that weren't affected. We follow established protocols to make sure that doesn't happen.
- Containment and Isolation: We seal off the work area before anything else. Physical barriers keep spores from migrating to other rooms.
- HEPA Air Filtration: We run HEPA air scrubbers throughout the process. They capture microscopic spores that you can't see and wouldn't otherwise catch.
- Precision Removal: Materials that are structurally compromised get removed. Everything else gets treated with professional-grade antimicrobial solution.
- Sanitization and Deodorization: After the mold is out, we treat surfaces to stop regrowth and eliminate any remaining odor.

Solving the Moisture Problem Once and For All
Removing mold without fixing the moisture source is temporary. It will come back.
Because Morgan does structural waterproofing, we can identify where the water is coming from, whether that's hydrostatic pressure through the foundation, a crack letting water in, or just high humidity with nowhere to go. We fix the structural issue that created the conditions for mold in the first place.
The Finishing Step: EZ Breathe Ventilation™
Once the mold is gone and the moisture source is fixed, there's one more thing worth considering. Basements and crawlspaces tend to hold stagnant air, and stagnant humid air is exactly what mold needs to come back.
A lot of homeowners solve this by putting a dehumidifier in the basement. It seems like the cheaper option, but it isn't.
A typical basement dehumidifier costs $30 to $50 a month to run, needs the bucket emptied regularly, has filters to replace, and only recirculates the same stale air. It doesn't actually exchange the air in the space. It just removes some of the moisture from it.
The EZ Breathe™ ventilation system works differently. It pulls damp, stale air from the lowest point of your home and replaces it with fresh air from the upper levels. That air exchange happens continuously, which means the conditions mold needs to grow simply don't build up. The whole house benefits, not just the basement.
It costs a few dollars a month to operate. No buckets, no filters, no maintenance. Just cleaner air throughout the house at a fraction of what a dehumidifier costs to run.
We recommend it as the final step on most mold jobs because it changes the conditions in the space, not just the symptoms. A basement that's actively ventilated is a much harder place for mold to get a foothold again.

Jim came out and walked me through all my options on our basement project. The price was extremely reasonable and I never felt pressured or rushed to make … More a decision. The team came out and did an amazing job. They completed the project in one day. They never stopped from the minute they arrived. We have had no issues since the new drain and sump pump was installed. I highly recommend Morgan for any project you may be considering. Everyone was fantastic and pleasant to work with. -
We recently had Morgan Waterproofing install a complete interior French drain system in our basement, and I have been extremely pleased with both the work … More and the results.
This was a big job. They removed a strip of the concrete floor around the inside perimeter of the foundation, excavated it, installed a gravel bed and perforated drain pipe, installed a new deeper sump system, and then re-cemented everything. They also power cleaned the entire basement floor, painted the block walls, epoxy coated the floor, and replaced the basement windows.
What impressed me almost as much as the finished job was how they handled the work. There was a lot of concrete demolition and a considerable amount of our stuff that had to be moved around as they worked. Despite that, at the end of every day they left the basement clean and organized.
The difference is dramatic. What had always been a dark, somewhat unpleasant basement is now clean, bright, dry, and actually feels inviting, even though it is still unfinished space.
And most importantly, we've now had several very heavy rains. The drainage and sump system are clearly doing exactly what they were designed to do.
This was a substantial project, and Morgan Waterproofing did an excellent job. I would absolutely recommend them. -
I was very impressed with Morgan Waterproofing from the estimate to the completion of the job. They were very thorough in explaining the issue and the … More corrective action needed. The crew were very courteous and respectful of the property and work area. I was very impressed with the end result. A day or so after the work was completed we had a hard rain and there was no water in the basement. I would highly recommend this company.
