Older homes on brick piers with open vents, over sandy clay that stays damp. Mold has everything it needs.
Perry has a lot of older housing around the downtown square, built on brick piers with open vented crawl spaces. That construction has been standard here for a very long time and it puts framing in contact with humid air for most of the year.
The ground helps. Sandy clay between Big Indian Creek and Flat Creek takes water in and holds it, so the soil under a Perry house stays damp well after the yard dries. Damp ground plus humid air plus a wooden floor system is the complete set of conditions mold needs.
Treatment and moisture control go together in every job we do here. The framing gets cleaned and treated, wet insulation and any organic debris come out of the space, and then the ground gets sealed and the humidity gets controlled. We photograph the affected areas so you can see exactly what was there and give you a fixed written price first.
Every Perry home gets the same crawl space mold removal scope, and the written price says exactly what that covers.
