From initial MC% assessment through borate treatment and vapor barrier replacement to post-remediation clearance — the full below-grade mold scope in one place.
Assessment
🔍MC% Assessment & Contamination Mapping
MC readings at 10–12 ft intervals across the crawl space. Visible growth mapped and photographed. Written assessment with findings before scope proposal.
Removal
🔨HEPA Removal & Wire-Brush Treatment
HEPA vacuum and wire brush on all contaminated surfaces. Spore material captured during removal — not disturbed into the crawl space airspace.
Treatment
🌳Penetrating Borate Application
Borate application after HEPA removal on all accessible surfaces. Penetrating formulation diffuses into wood fiber, not just surface coat. Active for years in treated wood.
Structure
🔨Sistering Structurally Compromised Joists
Joists with advanced fungal digestion — evidenced by delamination of sheathing, spongy or punky texture, or through-penetration of decay fungi — lose structural capacity and need sistering with pressure-treated lumber rather than treatment. We assess each joist individually and document replacement recommendations in the written scope.
Barrier
💧Vapor Barrier Repair or Replacement
Ground cover vapor barrier in your Louisville, GA crawl space — whether torn, undersized, incorrectly lapped, or absent — is repaired or replaced with properly installed reinforced poly, overlapped at seams, and secured to footings and piers. This is often the highest-impact single correction for preventing crawl space mold recurrence.
Systems
🏔Encapsulation vs. Vented Conditioning Assessment
Encapsulation isn't always the right answer. We assess your Louisville, GA crawl space's specific moisture load, drainage, and soil conditions and recommend encapsulation or enhanced vented conditioning based on what will actually work — not on which option has a higher margin.
