Something Odd About the Insulation
We equipped our personal protective equipment and began inspecting the crawl space. This home had 3 separate crawl spaces attached to it. After inspecting each crawl space, we noticed something odd about the insulation.
Thats What Was Wrong
It was contaminated with mold! In each crawl space, there was an abundance of mold growth throughout the insulation.
All Because Of A Leak
Apparently there was a leaky toilet that dripped down to the crawl space that the homeowner was unaware of. This combined with high humidity levels throughout the crawl spaces created the perfect environment for mold growth.
Remove it All
First, we removed all of the insulation and applied our antimicrobial solution called MAPS 1. This solution attacks mold at a DNA level and kills it instantly.
Patented Sealant
After scrubbing away all the mold growth, we applied a patented sealant called MAPS 2. This encapsulates the mold and renders it harmless and non-allergenic. MAPS 2 is also moisture-sensitive and reactivates when it gets wet to prevent any future mold growth. Since the homeowner was a contractor, he informed us that he will purchase all new insulation and replace it in each crawl space as well as purchase a dehumidifier to keep the humidity levels in the crawl spaces at a comfortable level.
