Crawl Space Mold Treatment and Insulation in Fair Haven, NJ

In Fair Haven, NJ, during a crawl space inspection, we found mold growth caused by outside air leaking into the vented crawl space, creating excessive moisture and humidity. This elevated humidity leads to mold forming on surfaces such as house framing, subfloors, ducts, or wet insulation. After removing contaminated fiberglass insulation, we sealed crawl space vents with SilverGlo foam blocks and foam sealant. We then applied SilverGlo foam boards to foundation walls, spray foamed exposed rim joists, and installed a CleanSpace encapsulation liner. Finally, we treated the affected area with Mold X2 stain remover and fogged the entire crawl space with Mold X2 botanical to prevent future mold growth. Considering that up to 70% of indoor air can originate from crawl spaces via the stack effect, addressing these issues is crucial for healthier indoor air quality.
