Mold Removal in Frankford, PA

Frankford is the old mill town in the Lower Northeast where Frankford Avenue meets the end of the Market-Frankford elevated line at the Frankford Transportation Center. Its housing is 1880s through 1920s brick rowhouses and a few older stone houses along the avenue, on rubble and brick foundations, with flat roofs draining to one box, plus 1940s rows toward Northwood. The El has run overhead along Frankford Avenue since 1922, and the houses on the blocks beside it are among the neighborhood's oldest.

This line puts Frankford homeowners through to an independent local mold provider. That provider meters the walls, writes the scope, and does the work. We only make the connection.

Frankford Creek gave the neighborhood its mills and still gives it its water problem. Much of the creek is channelized or culverted, and in a hard storm it and the combined sewer it feeds back up into the basements of the low blocks nearest it. Between storms, the calls are the rowhouse standard: a stone cellar wall weeping behind paneling, a party wall carrying the neighbor's roof leak, and a bathroom over the kitchen with no fan.

Frankford mold removal along the creek and under the El

A basement that took creek or sewer water and reached the first floor is whole-home mold remediation. A finished cellar wall over stone that reads wet is mold removal. A musty smell every humid week with nothing visible is mold odor removal, and in Frankford it usually traces to the stone or to carpet laid on a cellar floor that sweats.

The watershed group that works on the creek

The Tookany/Tacony-Frankford Watershed Partnership works on the creek from Cheltenham down through Tacony Creek Park to its mouth in Frankford, including the stormwater projects meant to keep it out of basements.
