Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, hand-sprayed fumigation and fogging machines are some of the methods we use to eradicate mold infestations. We have two different fogging/fumigation methods. For living spaces, we use a dry fogging method that doesn't damage furniture and is safe for pets and people. For non living spaces like attics and crawl spaces we use a wet fogging method that sticks to wood surfaces and digs deeper to eradicate mold spores with our high-grade commercial solution. For both methods, we seal all entrances and lay down drop-cloth and plastic on all surfaces to make sure all smells and contamination stays isolated in the areas we are fumigating/fogging.

The most common way mold is discovered in a house is by a musky smell. And mold, while it loves to grow in the moist spaces in the attic, behind the walls, under the stairs and in crawl spaces under the floor, is not always exposed and easily visible. A surefire way to detect mold in your house is by a swab test and air sample. Learn more about our mold testing service here.

There is no such thing as a harmless black mold.

For the average home, crawl space mold removal typically takes 4 to 8 hours, and once the job is done the smell can linger for up to 24 hours.

Mold removal service can be costly if the problem is not taken care of immediately, although if caught early mold removal service can be as low as $299, as that's our minimum fee for service, to cover labor, products, insurance and travel time.
