Crawl Spaces
Mold Removal
Excessive moisture in a crawl space doesn't just threaten your home's structure — it creates the exact conditions mold, bacteria, and dust mites need to thrive.
Mold has been linked to a wide range of health problems — a well-known Mayo Clinic study found that nearly all chronic sinus infections are the result of exposure to mold. Mold is a fungus that grows on surfaces and in deteriorated materials, and it flourishes anywhere it finds a constant supply of moisture. If your home has a crawl space, that's a likely place for it to take hold. Controlling the moisture is the key to controlling the mold.
Mold releases airborne spores — tiny living organisms suspended in the air, known as bioaerosols. Exposure ranges from minor issues like mild allergies to more serious reactions: sinus congestion, difficulty breathing, headaches, watery or burning eyes, and nose and throat irritation. How you're affected depends on how much you're exposed and your individual sensitivity. People with allergies, asthma, infants, the elderly, and anyone with a weakened immune system are most at risk.

What Mold Problems Cost You
For your health, mold exposure can cause throat and eye irritation, nasal stuffiness, trouble breathing, and more severe reactions for those with mold allergies. For your home, mold is a sign that there's too much moisture somewhere in the structure — left alone, it leads to deteriorating framing, expensive repairs, and a lower home value at resale.
Mold Removal Services
- Crawl space mold removal — mold on floor joists is a serious situation; spores release and spread, polluting the air quality throughout your home.
- Full containment during remediation — our technicians work in protective suits and breathing apparatus so contamination doesn't spread during the job.
- Mold testing — third-party testing before a job begins or after it's completed is accepted and encouraged.
Frequently Asked Questions
A persistent musty odor is one of the most common signs of mold, even before you can see it. Other indicators include visible fungal growth on wood surfaces, wet or discolored insulation, and worsening allergy symptoms in the home. A professional inspection can confirm it and identify how far it's spread.

“Rob and his crew are super. I had a very big project to renovate a 130-year old farmhouse. They worked diligently to put in new piers, new girders, and new joists. Then they also help to fix some frames and add subfloor. This allowed me to move on. Really enjoyed working with Rob.”

“Very professional! They carried out their task while going the extra mile. It was obvious to me that quality is of great importance. They left it better than they found it. I would recommend them to my greatest of friends and family.”

“After having some minor flooding issues, we contacted Triangle Reconstruction and they were amazing in their ability to identify the issues and the best way to address it. What was most impressive was the team that came out and did the work. They were probably the most professional and organized crew we've ever seen work on our house. Brian, our rep, and Rob, the owner, regularly checked in on their work and kept us updated on the progress. I hope I never have to deal with flooding issues again, but if I do, I'll call Triangle Reconstruction again.”
