What Makes Rocky Mount and Wilson, North Carolina Different
Rocky Mount grew up around the falls of the Tar River, and Wilson sits on flat ground about 20 miles to the south. When Hurricane Floyd stalled over eastern North Carolina in 1999, the Tar River flooded large parts of Rocky Mount and many families lost their homes. Heavy rain still sends the river and the swamps that feed it over their banks. Floodwater from outside carries sewage and farm runoff, so wear gloves and boots when you clean up.
Both cities have many older brick and frame homes built on crawlspaces during the tobacco and railroad years. Humid summers and damp ground keep those crawlspaces wet, and mold often starts on the joists long before anyone smells it upstairs. A crawlspace vapor barrier, clean gutters and grading that sends water away from the foundation do more than any spray.
Summer thunderstorms bring wind that drops pine limbs and old oaks onto roofs, and the odd winter ice storm does the same. Tarp a roof opening the same day, photograph the damage first, and move wet furniture off carpet. Stay away from downed lines and let the power company clear any tree that is touching a wire.

Checking a License in Rocky Mount and Wilson
North Carolina licenses general contractors through the North Carolina Licensing Board for General Contractors, and plumbing, electrical and heating work need their own state licenses. Ask for the license number and look it up with the board before you sign. North Carolina has no separate mold license, so ask whether the technicians hold industry certification in water damage and mold remediation, and ask for proof of liability and workers compensation insurance.
