The Main Concerns With Mold Growth
Around 40-60% of the air you breathe in your home comes from the crawl space.
If left unmanaged, mold will feed on wooden structures causing them to rot and fall apart. This puts the foundation at risk.
Mold can continue to grow to other areas of your home and cause an even bigger problem.
Mold exposure can exacerbate illnesses and cause unwanted symptoms like coughing, sneezing, headaches, runny nose, fatigue, and more.
Solutions For Mold Growth
When we find mold in a crawl space, we treat it and scrub it away. To prevent re-growth, removing the source of moisture is essential. Installing a dehumidifier and sealing the space from the outside air keeps the relative humidity levels regulated. Also, if flooding was the cause of the excess moisture, drainage is installed to remove gathered water away from the space.
