What Makes Charlottesville Different
Charlottesville sits in the rolling Piedmont near the foot of the Blue Ridge, with the Rivanna River along the east side of the city. Heavy rain runs off the hills fast, and creeks and low streets can flood in a hard storm. The remnants of hurricanes sometimes bring days of heavy rain to central Virginia.
Many homes near downtown and the University of Virginia are old, with brick or stone foundations that seep in wet seasons. Student rentals are often older homes split into apartments, where a leak in one unit reaches the next. Tell the landlord about a leak right away and photograph the damage.
Summers are humid, and wet drywall and carpet pad can grow mold within 24 to 48 hours. Winter brings ice storms and cold snaps that freeze pipes in exterior walls and crawlspaces. Many homes were built before 1978, so test for lead paint and asbestos before any demolition.

Checking a License in Charlottesville
Virginia licenses contractors through the Board for Contractors, part of the Department of Professional and Occupational Regulation. Ask for the license number and class and look it up with the department before you sign. Virginia has no separate license for mold cleanup, so ask whether the technicians hold industry certification in water damage and mold remediation, and ask for proof of liability and workers compensation insurance.
