How do I know if my crawl space has mold?

Do you install vapor barriers?
Barrier condition is assessed during inspection. Full crawl space encapsulation is available as a separate service.

Is it safe to work in a crawl space with a radon system?
Yes. Existing radon mitigation equipment is worked around without disturbance, and any apparent damage is documented.
Can crawl space mold affect indoor air quality?
It can. Air moves between the crawl space and living areas through gaps and ducts, which is why odors often originate there.

It depends on the cause. When the mold follows a sudden, covered event, there is often coverage. Insurance is accepted, and the contractor works with your carrier and documents the loss so the Somerville claim keeps moving.
