We had a musty smell coming up through the kitchen floor for a while and finally had the crawl space checked. The vapor barrier had torn in a couple spots and mold had spread along several joists. They removed it and were careful around our radon system the whole time.

Reviews
Rated 4.9 by Shacklett-area neighbors
Called about a musty smell and they walked me through every step before starting. The area was contained properly and the odor was gone when they finished.
After a pipe leak we had mold in the crawl space. They sealed the area, removed the mold, and left everything spotless.

Older and newer homes alike need Crawl Space Mold Removal, from the newer builds near Craggie Hope to the oldest ones in town. If you have noticed cool, musty air rising through the floor in your home, crawl space mold removal is worth a call before the damp reaches the framing.

Good to know
Crawl Space Mold Removal in Shacklett, TN: common questions
How do I know if my crawl space has mold?
The most common sign is a persistent musty smell in the rooms above, especially near the floor. Discoloration on exposed joists, if you can see into the crawl space, is another clear indicator.
Do you install vapor barriers?
We assess vapor barrier condition during inspection and can perform full crawl space encapsulation as a separate service if your space needs more than mold removal alone.
How long does crawl space mold removal take?
Most jobs run one to a few days depending on the size of the space and how much wood is affected. Low clearance can slow the physical work down even on a relatively small area.
Do I need to leave my Shacklett home during the work?
Usually no. We seal the work area under negative air, so most of the Shacklett home stays livable. For larger jobs we will tell you if it is better to step out for a day.
Is it safe to work in a crawl space with a radon system?
Yes, our crew works carefully around existing radon mitigation piping, sealing, and fan units. We won't disturb an active system, and we'll flag anything that looks compromised.
Can crawl space mold affect the air I breathe upstairs?
It can, since air moves between a crawl space and the living area above through gaps, ductwork, and flooring seams more than most people realize. That's part of why persistent odor complaints often trace back down there.
How soon can you start crawl space mold removal in Shacklett?
We answer our line 24/7 and can usually reach a Shacklett home the same day you call, sooner for an active leak.
Do you serve Shacklett?
Yes. We cover all of Shacklett, including Kingston Springs, Bell Town, Craggie Hope, and the rest of the Shacklett area. We are based in Pegram, about 5 minutes from our Pegram base, and answer our own phone around the clock.
