What to know before mold work in your crawl space
Here is what the EPA and the U.S. Forest Service say about getting rid of mold, and what has to come first.
Mold gets removed, not just killed
The EPA says it isn't enough to kill mold, because dead mold can still cause allergies. It has to be removed, and your written price says what that involves in your crawl space.
Moisture gets fixed too
Mold comes back when the wood stays damp. Fixing that can mean encapsulation or a dehumidifier, depending on what the inspection finds.
Humidity target in the EPA's mold guide
The EPA's guide to mold and moisture says to keep humidity below 60%, ideally between 30% and 50%, and to dry wet areas within 24 to 48 hours.

Mold is not rot
Humid air doesn't wet wood enough to rot it, but it does let some mold grow, according to the U.S. Forest Products Laboratory. Soft or rotted joists need wood rot repair.

Old insulation can come out first
When old insulation has to come out before the mold work, the job runs longer than the usual 1 to 3 days. Crawl space insulation is its own service.
Not a fix for standing water
Mold keeps growing where water sits. When there's water in the crawl space, standing water removal comes first.
