Damage Restoration & Mold Remediation | Hurcon, Inc in Houston, TX

Crawl space moisture damage in Houston is often caused by high humidity, poor ventilation, or leaks from plumbing or sprinkler systems. Hurcon addresses this by first identifying the moisture source, then using industrial dehumidifiers and air movers to dry the space. They also apply antimicrobial treatments to prevent mold growth and may recommend encapsulation to seal the crawl space long-term, protecting your home’s foundation and air quality.

Signs include cupping, buckling, discoloration, or a musty odor. Sprinkler system leaks often go unnoticed until floors warp. Hurcon responds by extracting standing water, then using specialized drying mats and moisture meters to dry the wood gradually to avoid further damage. They can also sand and refinish floors if needed, restoring them to their original condition while preventing mold under the surface.

Drain backup damage introduces contaminated water, which can carry bacteria and viruses. Hurcon’s team uses PPE and HEPA vacuums to remove sewage water, then disinfects all affected surfaces with EPA-approved cleaners. They dry the area thoroughly and check for hidden moisture in walls or subfloors to prevent mold. They also coordinate with plumbers to fix the drain issue, ensuring your home is safe and sanitized.
