Mold removal and cleanup for basements and crawl spaces that contains the work, removes damaged materials, cleans surfaces and fixes the moisture source.
Once mold appears, the plan has three parts: stop the moisture, remove what is damaged and clean what can be saved. Skipping the first part means the mold comes back. Porous materials such as carpet, drywall and insulation often have to go. Hard surfaces such as concrete and many framing members can be cleaned. Basements around Nashville can grow mold after a leak, a humid summer or a flood, and quick action keeps the job small.
We start by finding the moisture source and, if needed, stopping it. We set up plastic barriers and, where appropriate, negative air to keep spores from spreading. We remove wet or moldy drywall, carpet pad and insulation in sealed bags, clean framing and concrete with HEPA vacuuming and detergent and, where it suits the material, apply a treatment. We dry the area fully before anything is rebuilt. We explain what we saw and what to avoid, and for large areas or sensitive occupants we suggest a mold specialist and a clearance check.
