  • This homeowner called me out for a crawl space assessment. There was surface mold covering all the joists under the house. I gave him an honest opinion on buying the house and made a video for his reference. Since the mold was dry and dormant, I told him we would have good results with remediation, but I never thought the results would be this good!

    If you don't control humidity in that crawlspace, the mold is just going to come back. Should seal the vents and encapsulate the crawlspace and install a dehumidifier.

      This crawl was dry and this was old mold. If there was persistent moisture I would agree with you!

    The rmr86 is the stain remover, the rmr141 is the disinfectant

    • @Cristian-hu9bx
      @Cristian-hu9bx Před rokem

      Why do I always see people use rmr86 first. Shouldn’t RMR141 be used first to kill the mold and then RMR86 to remove the stains ?

    • @charltonheston969
      @charltonheston969 Před rokem

      @user-tw2uo7kr6y yes the directions say 141 first then 86 , I always did 2-3 coats of each switching back & forth

  • @miketyler7616
    @miketyler7616 Před 4 měsíci

    I hope you followed it up with RMR141 to kill the mold. RMR 86 removes the stains, but that's it. RMR141 is an EPA approved fungicide and mildewside and must be sprayed liberally on all surfaces that RMR 86 was used on.

    Good video, looks like there could be lots of mold spores. Probably should be hepa vacuumed or fogged with concrobium

    Hi! I love your videos. You obviously have high standards. That's difficult to find. I wish you operated out of Northern Virginia. I tried concrobium in my crawl space and attic, but it didn't get rid of the smell or the stains. Everyone says to not use bleach-based products, but the RMR products seem to speak for themselves. I was wondering if when you applied it if the runoff corroded the plastic vapor barrier. I have a new vapor barrier and I don't want it to get ruined.

    • @GCFD
      @GCFD  Před 2 lety +1

      No the vapor barrier was fine. Make sure you have several air movers (fans) set up for ventilation. This is a rough job with the RMR. But it works extremely well.

    It’s a stain remover NOT a mold remover

    • @miketyler7616
      @miketyler7616 Před 4 měsíci

      Exactly. I sprayed RMR 86 and once dry, coated it with RMR 141 and dried everything. That combo works awesome. People don't understand bleach won't penetrate the wood, but RMR141 will and kill the mold roots.

      Spray with a garden sprayer. Make sure wear a full respirator.

    Funny how people fear mold, but are ok with someone spraying “a chemical” that kills mold…. Not picking at this guy at all. Just seems odd to me.

      So true ! and the guy shows the stain remover as the mold remover . I give props for his analysis but the RMR product clearly says mold stain remover
