What sets our Crawl Space Mold Removal crew apart in Salem.
Our Salem techs understand the specific moisture patterns common in older pier-and-beam and pre-1980s construction. We won't apply a modern slab-home fix to a Salem, NC property that needs a different approach. We photograph crawl space conditions before and after for your Salem records.
Tight, low-clearance conditions call for specific training and compact gear, which our Salem 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 Salem records.
