Rating: 5 (12 reviews)

Wake Forest, established in 1880, is located in Wake County, North Carolina and is Raleigh’s northern neighbor. Wake forest is a beautiful suburb that is best known for being the original home of Wake Forest University. The beautiful North Carolina weather paired with Wake Forest’s abundance of outdoor spaces allow its residence to enjoy outdoor activities most of the year. Home to 10 parks, a number of lakes/ponds and an adorable downtown district, there is something in Wake Forest for everyone.

It’s long history and its rapid population growth make Wake Forest an interesting mix of older homes/buildings and new construction. The older properties, especially, tend to be prone to mold, moisture, and drainage problems which can result in flooding and water damage. The staff at Elite Moisture Solutions can help evaluate your property and develop a plan, if needed, to mitigate any issues you may be having!

Crawlspace Encapsulation

Installing a crawlspace encapsulation system under your home has a multitude of benefits besides eliminating moisture which can result in mold growth. A sealed crawl space can create a barrier to prevent pests from making the area under your home their nest, it can protect your HVAC equipment, pipes, and ducts to preserve their lifespan, but most importantly it can lower your power bills.

One call to Elite Moisture Solutions and you can rest assured our certified inspectors will come out to evaluate and develop a service plan that is designed specifically for your home or business that is not only affordable, but you’ll have the estimate the same day as the visit which will also include valuable discounts if you’re ready to get started. Once the work has been performed, the sealed crawlspace will be re-inspected to ensure the work was completed successfully and that you are happy with the results.

Mold Remediation

Where in the home is mold commonly found?

Mold inside of the home can mostly be found in/near the following locations:

After flooding
Roof leaks
Window leaks
Leaky pipes
Near air ducts/vents
Around outlets
Basement
Crawl space
Water heaters
Showers/tubs
Toilets
Laundry room
Anywhere there was standing water
And more...

What surfaces does mold grow on the best?

Mold grows best on these surfaces:

Wallpaper
Wood
Fabric
Drywall
Insulation
Cardboard
Dust
Carpet
And more...

Most people assume the need for mold remediation is limited to flooding or leaks from pipes, roofs, or water heaters, but what they don’t know is that the area under the house within the crawlspace is perfectly suited to mold growth. Mold thrives on moisture, humidity, and darkness which is abundant under your home unless your crawlspace has been sealed to prevent excessive accumulation from the damp conditions. It’s important to assess all areas of the home for mold even though your concern might just be due to water damage that you’ve experienced.

Elite Moisture Solutions’ team is committed to delivering their customers with healthy living and working environments, which is why we make it easy and affordable to remove mold by offering free visual inspections and low-cost mold testing options. If you’re contacting Elite because you’re having water damage issues from leaking pipes, a leaky roof, or a crawlspace that is continually flooding, then rest assured your home or business will not only be restored back to it’s original condition before the water damage occurred, but our mold experts will do a thoroughly free visual mold inspection to determine where mold has also grown. If mold is found, our inspectors will partner with you to design a mold removal strategy that will fit your schedule and your budget. We work diligently and perform quality assurance checks to guarantee that the job was done properly and that your space is mold free!

Indoor Air Quality Testing

Identifying mold isn’t always as easy as performing a visual inspection to determine if there might be the potential for mold, but oftentimes requires the need to do an indoor air quality test that identifies the presence of mold, the type of mold found, and the levels of mold toxins in the air.

At Elite Moisture Solutions, we aim to provide our customers with a healthy, mold free home or business, which is why our mold specialists provide free visual inspections as well as low cost comprehensive air tests that detect mold levels and types. When mold is detected, our inspectors will develop a customized service plan that will include how the team will resolve the source of moisture and remove all the mold from your property.

Additional Services

Vapor Barrier Installation

Vapor barriers are installed to minimize buildup of moisture which ultimately reduces the potential for mold to grow.

Sump Pump Installation

Sump pumps are installed at the lowest point of your property that collects water and pumps it out from under your home.

French Drain Installation

Installing a French drain can be used to collect water around your homes foundation and redirect it away from your property.

Nightmare scenario - Google Fiber's contractor hit our main water line with a backhoe during their network install. After a year of denying the damages (which occurred on private property - a whole other saga), their insurance adjuster finally agreed to repair/replace our water line. BUT the City of Durham REFUSED to grant them a permit to work in the right of way where they need to access our water line!  Exactly where the City granted a permit to Google to install their fiber. So around and around we went. Another year goes by. The City, Public Works Director Williams, Mayor Schewel, City Council COMPLETELY FAILED to help us. The City even sent us a DISCONNECTION notice when we tried to get the City's attention by not paying a month's water bill (>$600). The leaking water (~14,000 gallons!!!) eventually infiltrates our basement and causes a severe mold infestation throughout the crawlspace, house and attic. MOLD was everywhere, even within some of the walls and floors (original marble) which all had to come out. Ben, Chris and their crews thankfully took on the job and helped us tremendously. The crews worked so hard and were incredibly thorough. It's tough to go through a mold remediation and the crews brought humor and good attitudes with them everyday!! Ben was exceptionally knowledgable, supportive and patient. There was a lot to deal with and Ben helped us navigate through it all. He was there for us each and every step of the way. After 3 rounds of remediation, ALL the mold was finally GONE (as was most of our stuff... sigh). MOLD FREE IS A VERY HAPPY DAY! Months after the mold was gone, Ben took time out of his busy schedule to meet onsite with Google's insurance agent. He is continuing to help during the lawsuit we have had to file against Google Fiber, their contractors and the City of Durham. You can TRUST Ben, Chris and their crews. They have EXPERTISE, INTEGRITY and most of all, THEY CARE!! read less
