What happened in Iron Mountain
CCS took on this mold remediation job in Iron Mountain, Michigan, in late October 2024. It grew into a large project with 482 photos. The set here is from March 18 and April 7, 2025.
By April the inside had been taken down to the framing. The studs, the top plates, the floor joists overhead and some old round log beams were all exposed. A crew member worked through the space with a pin moisture meter, pressing it into the studs, the plates and the joists and photographing each reading, and recorded the room temperature and humidity with a thermo-hygrometer.
With the readings done, the framing was treated with a spray wand, from the bottom plates on the floor up through the stud bays and into the joists and corners overhead. Checking that the wood is dry before treating it, and before any new walls go up, makes sure the mold is not sealed back in.
