Mold Removal in South Lake Morton Historic District, FL
The South Lake Morton Historic District was the first of Lakeland's neighborhoods to go on the National Register, in 1985, and it runs south from the lake toward Lake Hollingsworth in a grid of 1910s and 1920s bungalows, Mediterranean Revival stucco, and Tudor Revival brick. Most houses are frame with plaster inside, and a lot of them have been added onto two or three times.
Additions are where the water gets in. A 1950s bathroom built into a 1920s porch, a 1980s family room with a flat roof tied into a steep one, a kitchen pushed out over a new slab next to an old crawl space: each joint between old and new is a seam that moves and leaks in a sideways rain.
A call from the district reaches an independent local mold provider through this line. That provider meters the old and the new and tells you what has to come out.
South Lake Morton mold removal, where the additions meet the originals
Soft plaster where a flat addition roof meets the old wall is mold removal. A porch bathroom with a window and no fan is bathroom mold removal. Plaster, tall baseboards, and casings matched after the removal is mold damage repair.
The city's own account of the district
The City of Lakeland's historic district narratives describe the district's platting from 1906, its house styles, and the review that exterior changes go through, which matters when a window or roof repair is part of the leak fix.
