Oberon is the neighborhood in west-central Arvada along Oberon Road near 64th Avenue, between Wadsworth and Kipling, built mostly in the late 1960s and 1970s as ranches, split-levels, and tri-levels on flat lots, with the Ralston Creek Trail along its edge. Ralston Creek runs along the south side of the neighborhood on its way to Olde Town.
Houses close to the creek sit on the flattest, wettest ground in west Arvada, and the state's flood hazard study of Ralston Creek found its channel through Arvada squeezed by the subdivisions that came after it. Tri-levels put a half-buried family room against that ground and a laundry room on the lowest slab.
Homeowners in Oberon reach an independent local mold provider through this site's phone line. The provider reads the walls with a meter and tells you what the house needs; our part is the phone call.
A lower-level laundry wall wet after a wet spring is mold removal. A family room half below grade that smells after every storm is mold odor removal. A furnace room in the lowest level with a humidifier on the plenum is HVAC mold cleaning.
Ralston Creek is a quiet ditch most of the year and a fast brown channel for a few weeks each spring, and the owners along it in Oberon learn to walk the backyard after the melt and look at where the water is standing before it finds the window wells.
Call (720) 823-6943 and tell us what you see. We put you through to a local mold provider serving Oberon.
Growth on a finished basement wall, behind a laundry room, or under a window well leak: room sealed, wet board cut to the meter line, framing HEPA-cleaned and dried.
A dark patch on basement drywall or a bathroom ceiling handled by how far the water traveled, not its color: containment, porous material out, source fixed first.
A sump pump that quit during the melt or a supply line that ran for weeks, mapped floor by floor and cleared in zones as one project.
Furnace cabinet, coil, humidifier pad, and return ducts cleaned when a basement air handler or a swamp cooler has been pushing damp air through the house.
Growth behind a vanity, under a shower pan, or on a ceiling with no fan, removed once the drain, supply line, or venting problem is fixed.
Dark streaks on roof sheathing after hail, an ice dam, or a bath fan venting into the attic, cleaned and treated once the roof and the venting are corrected.
A musty basement in a house that looks fine, traced to wet carpet pad, a damp wall cavity, or a crawl space, then removed and treated at the source.
Drywall, insulation, baseboard, and carpet pad put back after removal, once the wall reads dry and the crack or leak that started it is repaired.
