Mold-Damaged Wood Cleaning and Restoration
Wood stained or coated with mold is often still sound underneath. We clean and sand the surface, treat it and seal it where appropriate, and replace only the pieces that are too far gone, which keeps the structure and the cost under control.

Questions
About mold-damaged wood cleaning and restoration
How do you know the wood is still sound?
We probe it with a tool and check its moisture. Sound wood resists the probe, and soft wood is repaired or replaced.
Will stains come out?
Often much of the staining does. Some dark staining may remain in wood that is structurally fine.
