Photo Album: Moldy Removal in the Crawl Space in Boonville, IN
A couple in Boonville, IN, started to notice a musty smell in their home that they suspected was coming from the crawl space. Boonville had a recent rain storm that came through and the couple searched their crawl space for any sign of water, to their findings, there was standing water on the black 6 mil liner. Watermarks were also showing up on the walls of the crawl space and moldy spots. Mold was present on the wooden beams since mold thrives best on organic materials. The couple was determined to have mold remediation performed before it spread to the upstairs.
All mold spores were scrubbed and sprayed away through mold remediation. A SmartSump pump is installed to pump water out and away from the home. A reliable sump pump such as the SmartSump makes it possible for the ground to be dry and prevents mold from surviving.
