WQB Mold Removal built specific expertise in Highland Park's older pier-and-beam and pre-1980s crawl space construction, which behaves differently than modern slab foundations.
We'll trace the actual source rather than treat the first thing we see.
What sets our Crawl Space Mold Removal crew apart in Highland Park.
Newer encapsulation methods sometimes need adapting for older foundation types. We won't apply a modern slab-home fix to a Highland Park, MI property that needs a different approach. We photograph crawl space conditions before and after for your Highland Park records.
Tight, low-clearance conditions call for specific training and compact gear, which our Highland Park 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.
A properly sealed vapor barrier addresses what's usually the real Highland Park, MI source. Skipping this step is why so many prior treatments don't hold. We photograph crawl space conditions before and after for your Highland Park records.
