Crawl Space Mold Removal and Mold Remediation
There are several reasons to contact a mold removal specialist if you discover a musty or mildew odor in your Hampton Roads crawl space. You could have black mold starting to grow in your crawl space, a known health hazard for anyone breathing the air in this space. Bleach only takes care of some mold, and to clean mold thoroughly, professional mold remediation products & specialized equipment must be used. If you have mold in your floor joists or subflooring, mold issues will have to be addressed.
Mold remediation requires identifying where the mold is located and determining the best approach for remediation. When you try to take care of mold yourself, you don’t have access to the same techniques used by professionals.
Is Mold in Your Crawl Space Dangerous?
Mold in your crawl space is often dangerous, as it can lead to poor indoor air quality and damage your property. You might have black mold, Stachybotrys, Aspergillus, Cladosporium, or other types of basement mold and crawl space mold. Mold can cause health problems, especially those that struggle with respiratory issues such as asthma already. Mold can damage floor joists, beams, subfloor, and any other structure within your home. If mold continues to grow, you can have structural damage on the property that requires significant repair. Crawl space encapsulation will protect your crawl space foundation from a mold infestation if you have problems with a damp crawl space.
What Are Some Signs of Mold Growth in a Crawl Space?
Without routine inspections of your crawl space, you have to depend on signs indicating mold growth in your home.
Smell of Mold
You might smell a musty odor within your home or when you are near the crawl space.
Visible Mold Growth
Visible mold growth can appear in air ducts, and on walls, ceilings, flooring, floor joists, beams, or subfloor. If your indoor air is poor quality, this can cause respiratory issues for people within the home. When anyone in your home has health issues with no identified cause, mold growth might be the issue.
It isn’t always easy to inspect for mold growth in a crawl space due to the tight space. When you don’t want to crawl under your house, only to discover that you can’t really see into the crawl space, it’s time to hire a professional to do the work. Even if you can reach your crawl space, it is unlikely that you will be able to figure out if there is a mold problem or not.
How to Remove Mold in a Crawl Space
Some homeowners try using bleach and other cleaners to take care of mold in a crawl space. This is only partially effective at taking care of mold. It is impossible to uncover all the mold that could be present using typical cleaning methods. This is a difficult job and one that shouldn’t be done by someone who has no experience with crawl space mold removal or remediation.
Removing mold as a DIY project is not a good idea. When you don’t hire a professional for crawl space mold and try to do it yourself, you are at risk of leaving behind mold spores that will grow again. A professional mold remediation specialist ensures the remediation of mold and prevents future mold growth. Crawl space moisture control is vital to long-term mold remediation. Mold removal costs will depend on the extent of the mold, the size of the space to be remediated, and the level of remediation that needs to be done.
BAY Crawl Space & Foundation Repair’s ‘Mold Removal Service’ utilizes pressurized spray equipment to physically remove a majority of existing mold and specialized mixtures of chemicals to kill the rest of the mold. Our mold remediation solution also provides long-term protection against mold, decay fungi, drywood termites, and general pests such as ants and cockroaches.
Why Choose Professional Crawl Space Mold Remediation
Professional mold remediation services understand what it takes to get rid of mold throughout your home or building. Specialized cleaning techniques make sure that the mold is physically removed. Any spores left behind will produce future mold growth if the conditions are right. It only takes a little moisture for mold to flourish when there are spores present. With the right training and tools, it is possible to remove mold spores completely from your space. Any structural damage should be taken care of at the time of your remediation services.
You need the support of professionals to take care of mold remediation for you. If you find spots of mold anywhere in your crawl space, contact BAY Crawl Space to get the help you need to remediate the mold safely. If you try to clean the space yourself, you may expose yourself to potentially dangerous mold for no reason. Without the right protective gear, you are putting yourself at risk when you try to clean up mold on your own.
BAY’s ‘Mold Remediation Service’ includes mold removal, mold prevention, and kills existing mold. We have solutions to control crawl space moisture, kill mold, and stop it from coming back.

A dehumidifier is used to remove moisture from your space, drying out the area and preventing moisture from causing any new mold to grow. There should be a significant decrease or elimination of any odors once a dehumidifier has been in use within the basement, crawl space, or home. Removing moisture helps to prevent mold from growing in the first place. Cleaning the mold with specialized cleaners, using specialty spray equipment, and eliminating the moisture is the only way to permanently stop mold from growing.

“It was an easy decision to choose Bay Crawl Space over the three other estimates I had gotten—not only was the price reasonable based on my research, but Jamie was the only sales advisor who described more than one option that I could choose. The scheduling was very smooth! I am confident that if I have any problems, I can call & they will resolve them.”

“I’m not one to take home repairs lightly so I try and do my research. I got over 4 estimates to have my crawl space encapsulated and some repair work done. BAY beat the others prices by over 10k. Oh and they actually did more work that what the others quoted us to do. They also do quality work. So value for money, BAY is the company to go with.”
– Benjamin Alexander -
“I had an independent civil engineer out to inspect prior to the BAY visit. I was afraid I might be oversold on repairs I didn’t need. This was not the case. BAY made the same observations and gave same explanations or better. Great job BAY on hiring honest and competent assessors. Very professional, will work with you again!”
– Zachary Frey -
