Crawl Space Mold Removal

Treating joists, beams and subfloor beneath pier and beam homes, plus vapor barrier and moisture control below the floor.

Many older Fort Worth homes sit on pier and beam foundations with a crawl space underneath. Crawl space mold removal cleans growth from the wood structure that holds up your floors and addresses the damp ground and airflow conditions that cause it.

The Problem Behind Crawl Space Mold Removal

Bare soil releases moisture constantly. Without a proper ground cover, humidity in a crawl space can stay high for months, and summer air entering through vents can condense on cooler wood. Plumbing leaks and poor drainage add more water. Since air from below moves up into the house, crawl space conditions often show up as odor in the living areas.
