Mold Remediation in Plano, TX
Plano has thousands of rental homes, apartments and commercial buildings alongside its owner-occupied neighborhoods. Mold affects all of them, but the stakes look a little different in each. A homeowner wants a healthy house. A landlord needs a fast, documented fix. A business can’t afford to close a floor for weeks.
DFW Restorations provides mold remediation in Plano TX for all of these. We work carefully, explain what we find, and fix the moisture problem along with the mold.
Mold in Plano Homes
North Texas soil moves a lot, and slab foundations take the stress. When a pipe under the slab starts leaking, water can wick up into flooring, baseboards and the bottom of walls before anyone notices. Mold often follows. Other common sources include shower pans, window frames that leak during heavy rain, and AC drain lines that back up in summer.
Rentals and Apartments
Tenants usually notice the mold before anyone else, but landlords are the ones who need to take the initiative to address the issue. We come in, assess the situation, record everything and get rid of the problem while making repairs. If the moisture is coming from another unit or a common wall, we assess that as well.
A version of this article was also published in below-tenant calls Tip Sheet We offer proactive advice on how to prevent re-calls, including bathroom exhaust fan installation, seal around tubs and showers, and scheduling AC tuneups between tenants.
Offices and Commercial Spaces
Leaking roofs, HVAC systems and plumbing in ceiling spaces can cause mold behind drop ceilings and inside walls. We set up containment so the rest of the building can keep running, and we can schedule work around business hours where possible.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you work with landlords and property managers?
Yes. We provide clear documentation for each job and keep owners, managers and residents updated.
Can mold grow inside air ducts?
It can, especially when ducts run through damp attics or when condensation builds up. We check the HVAC system when it’s part of the problem.
Do I need mold testing?
Not always. If mold is visible and the cause is clear, testing may not add much. For larger projects, Texas rules require an independent assessment and post-work clearance, and we’ll explain how that works.
What causes mold after a slab leak?
Water from under the slab soaks into flooring, tack strips and the bottom of drywall. Because it stays hidden, mold can grow for weeks before anyone notices a smell.
