Mold Removal & Remediation in Hansville, WA

When to call for help

• Mold has spread beyond about 10 square feet, a 3 ft by 3 ft area.
• A seasonal home smells musty every time you open it.
• Wallboard or trim on the weather side feels damp or soft.
• You see growth on joists or subfloor from the crawl space.
• Storm water or high tide reached the house.

Point No Point and the weather

Hansville, home to Point No Point Light, faces Hood Canal to the west, Admiralty Inlet to the northeast and Puget Sound to the east, with Buck Lake inland. Kitsap County's sea level rise assessment, a planning document rather than a regulation, lists Hansville and Point No Point among the shoreline areas most exposed to coastal flooding, with the highest modeled wave run-up of the sites studied. Shorelines are regulated under the county's Shoreline Master Program. For most homes, the everyday issue is wind-driven rain and salt air on the exposed sides of the house, plus the long gray season that keeps unheated rooms and crawl spaces damp. Cabins and second homes that sit closed for weeks are especially prone to musty rooms.

What it costs

Angi's Seattle cost guide reports most jobs between $1,008 and $2,967. Expect the price to reflect travel to the north end of the peninsula, how much drywall, insulation or flooring comes out, access to crawl spaces and attics, and whether the company also handles rebuilding. Related repairs in the same guide include drywall at $825 to $2,400. If you are away for part of the year, ask whether the company can work while you are gone and send photos and moisture readings at each stage, and whether it will leave a dehumidifier running until the framing is dry.
