The process

The crawl space mold removal and cleanup process in Troy, IL

Technicians check joists, subfloor, and vapor barrier condition with a moisture meter, noting any existing radon mitigation equipment.

Contain

The crawl space access is sealed and placed under negative air pressure before any cleaning begins.

Remove

Affected wood is HEPA vacuumed, cleaned, and treated. Contaminated insulation and debris are bagged for removal.

Document moisture source

Conditions like vapor barrier gaps, standing water, or blocked vents are documented, as these are the primary causes of persistent dampness.
