After a slow leak was found behind our bathroom wall, I assumed we'd need new studs. They cleaned and treated the framing instead, checked the moisture level carefully, and explained why replacement wasn't necessary in our case.

Reviews
Rated 4.9 by South Toms River-area neighbors
We had mold after a slow leak under the sink. They inspected it, explained the plan, and left the space dry and clean.
The inspector used a moisture meter and thermal camera to find hidden mold. Impressive and worth every dollar.

Good to know
Wood Framing Mold Removal in South Toms River, NJ: common questions
Do you always replace moldy wood framing?
No. Solid framing lumber with surface mold can usually be cleaned and treated rather than replaced. Replacement is reserved for wood that's actually soft, rotted, or structurally compromised.
Is the antimicrobial treatment safe for my home?
We use EPA-registered antimicrobial products applied according to label instructions, and the area is ventilated as part of the drying process before anything is closed back up.
How long before framing can be closed back up?
It depends on the wood's starting moisture level and drying conditions, often a few days. We won't approve closing a wall until framing hits a safe moisture reading.
How soon can you start wood framing mold removal in South Toms River?
We answer our line 24/7 and can usually reach a South Toms River home the same day you call, sooner for an active leak.
How can you tell if wood needs replacing versus cleaning?
We check the texture and firmness with a probe alongside moisture readings. Solid, firm wood with surface staining gets cleaned and treated; soft or spongy wood signals rot and needs structural evaluation.
Can you treat framing without removing all the drywall?
If drywall has already been removed for another reason, we'll treat exposed framing while it's accessible. We generally don't remove intact drywall solely to treat framing that isn't showing signs of a problem.
Is the wood framing mold removal you do in South Toms River to a real standard?
Yes. Our crew follows the IICRC S520 standard for mold remediation, the same framework insurers and inspectors recognize across Ocean County.
Do you serve South Toms River?
Yes. We cover all of South Toms River, including Beachwood, Toms River, Pine Beach, and the rest of the South Toms River area. We are based in Seaside Heights, about 10 minutes from our Seaside Heights base, and answer our own phone around the clock.
