After a slow leak was found behind our bathroom wall, I assumed we'd need new studs. They cleaned and treated the framing instead, checked the moisture level carefully, and explained why replacement wasn't necessary in our case.

Fast to respond and easy to reach. The technicians were tidy, respectful of our home, and explained what caused the growth so it would not come back.
The inspector used a moisture meter and thermal camera to find hidden mold. Impressive and worth every dollar.

Good to know
Wood Framing Mold Removal in Hulmeville, PA: common questions
Do you always replace moldy wood framing?
No. Solid framing lumber with surface mold can usually be cleaned and treated rather than replaced. Replacement is reserved for wood that's actually soft, rotted, or structurally compromised.
Is the antimicrobial treatment safe for my home?
We use EPA-registered antimicrobial products applied according to label instructions, and the area is ventilated as part of the drying process before anything is closed back up.
How long before framing can be closed back up?
It depends on the wood's starting moisture level and drying conditions, often a few days. We won't approve closing a wall until framing hits a safe moisture reading.
Do I need to leave my Hulmeville home during the work?
Usually no. We seal the work area under negative air, so most of the Hulmeville home stays livable. For larger jobs we will tell you if it is better to step out for a day.
How can you tell if wood needs replacing versus cleaning?
We check the texture and firmness with a probe alongside moisture readings. Solid, firm wood with surface staining gets cleaned and treated; soft or spongy wood signals rot and needs structural evaluation.
Can you treat framing without removing all the drywall?
If drywall has already been removed for another reason, we'll treat exposed framing while it's accessible. We generally don't remove intact drywall solely to treat framing that isn't showing signs of a problem.
How do you keep the mold from coming back after wood framing mold removal?
We fix the moisture source first, not just the mold, then dry the structure and recheck it. That is what keeps mold from returning to a Hulmeville home.
Do you serve Hulmeville?
Yes. We cover all of Hulmeville, including Penndel, Langhorne Manor, Langhorne, and the rest of the Hulmeville area. We are based in Croydon, about 5 minutes from our Croydon base, and answer our own phone around the clock.
