What sets our Crawl Space Mold Removal crew apart in Traverse City.
Newer encapsulation methods sometimes need adapting for older foundation types. We won't apply a modern slab-home fix to a Traverse City, MI property that needs a different approach. We photograph crawl space conditions before and after for your Traverse City records.
Tight, low-clearance conditions call for specific training and compact gear, which our Traverse City techs carry standard. No job gets turned away just because the clearance is tight. Our equipment is rated for the tight clearance older construction demands.
We treat the ground moisture and drainage issue alongside the visible mold, not instead of it. Skipping this step is why so many prior treatments don't hold. We photograph crawl space conditions before and after for your Traverse City records.
Some Traverse City clients set up a monitoring plan after treatment, especially in chronically humid older homes. We'll recommend monitoring only where your specific situation warrants it. Our equipment is rated for the tight clearance older construction demands.

Standing water or poor exterior grading around an older Traverse City foundation needs a real fix, not just interior treatment.
Older floor joists and subfloor material get checked for both mold and underlying wood deterioration.
