Mold remediation

The Mold Remediation pack tunes Manuall for the work between the leak and the rebuild: assessment and sampling, containment and negative air, removal and HEPA cleaning, structural drying, clearance testing, and the crawl space and dehumidifier work that keeps it from coming back. Apply it at signup from the Trade dropdown, or anytime from Settings -> Vertical Packs.

What the pack adds

Custom fields

Fifteen, across three record types.

• Job: Scope (Assessment, Remediation, Prevention, Air Test, Reconstruction), Containment (Full, Localized, None), Area (Sq Ft).
• Equipment: Capacity (Pints/Day), Installed Location, Condensate Drain, Filter Size, Vapor Barrier / Encapsulation.
• Lead: What Are You Seeing?

The Equipment record here is the moisture control system you installed and come back to: the whole-space dehumidifier, its drain, and the barrier it runs inside. No Customer or Invoice fields ship. If you work claims, a claim number and adjuster on the Invoice is the first thing to add in Custom Fields.

Job templates

Thirteen, each with an estimated duration, required skills and prep notes. Mold Assessment (120 min), Air Sampling (60), Post-Remediation Clearance (90), Dehumidifier Service Call (90), Annual Moisture Control Visit (90), Dehumidifier Install (240), Emergency Water Loss Response (300, the only Emergency priority), Remediation Small (480), Leak Repair + Dry-Out (480, adds a Plumbing skill), Attic Mold Treatment (480, adds Containment), Post-Remediation Rebuild (480, adds Carpentry), Crawl Space Encapsulation (960), Remediation Large (1,440).

That 1,440 is a calendar day of site occupancy, not crew hours. If you dispatch by the hour, trim it or the slot finder blocks a whole day per crew. Each template also pre-fills billable lines, and those quantities are placeholders sized to a typical job: 10 sq ft on Remediation Small, 200 on Remediation Large, 800 on Attic, 1,200 on Crawl Space Encapsulation, 120 on the Rebuild, three days of drying on both Leak Repair + Dry-Out and Emergency Water Loss Response. Put the measured number in before the estimate leaves. Job Templates

Services

Twenty-four, all badged "Set your price" until you save them. Per square foot: Mold Remediation, Limited Area ($4.50), Mold Remediation with Full Containment ($3.50), Attic Mold Treatment, Antimicrobial Treatment, Mold-Resistant Sealer Coating, Crawl Space Encapsulation, Drywall and Finish Rebuild.

Per unit or flat: Mold Assessment and Written Scope, Moisture Survey and Written Report, Post-Remediation Clearance Testing, Air Sample and Surface Sample with Lab Analysis, Containment and Negative Air Setup, Dehumidifier Installation, Air Handler and Duct Decontamination, Service Call and Trip Charge, Emergency After-Hours Response.

Then the metered lines a multi-day job runs on: HEPA Cleaning and Detail Wipe-Down per hour, Remediation Technician per hour, Structural Drying per day, HEPA Air Scrubber per machine per day, Contaminated Debris Disposal per load, Dehumidifier Service and Filter Change, a Moisture Control Maintenance Plan per year.

A few carry a "(Mold Remediation)" suffix, such as Antimicrobial Treatment and Crawl Space Encapsulation, because a service name has to be unique across all 33 packs. The limited-area rate sits above the full-containment rate per foot on purpose: setup does not scale down. Prices are a 2025 U.S. national average, and per-foot remediation swings hard with access, water category and how much demo the scope carries.

Seven show in public booking: Mold Assessment and Written Scope, Moisture Survey and Written Report, Post-Remediation Clearance Testing, Air Sample with Lab Analysis, Moisture Control Maintenance Plan, Dehumidifier Service and Filter Change, Air Handler and Duct Decontamination. Price Book

Checklists

Three, to check against your own procedure. Remediation Checklist (21 items) is the daily log: containment and decon chamber photo before removal, negative air machine count, air changes per hour, manometer reading at end of shift, removal method, waste double-bagged and wiped at the decon exit, bag count, framing moisture after removal against a reference dry standard taken on unaffected material, RH and temperature inside containment, the antimicrobial product with its EPA registration number, a photo of the cleaned cavity, and containment left standing until clearance passes.

Assessment Checklist (15 items) is the scope: moisture source, S520 condition classification, area measured in square feet, wettest and reference moisture readings, temperature, RH, dew point, water source category (Cat 1 clean, Cat 2 gray, Cat 3 black), HVAC involvement, thermal imaging and moisture source photos, and any occupant health complaints.

Pre-Service Safety Check (8 items) is what happens before anything is disturbed: respirator type and a current fit test for every tech on site, occupants and pets clear, containment up, HVAC shut down with vents sealed in the work area, negative air exhausting outside away from windows and intakes, and a pre-1980 asbestos or lead question with a work-stopped option. Ten of the thirteen templates attach a checklist; Air Sampling, Post-Remediation Clearance and Post-Remediation Rebuild ship without. Checklists

Parts

Twenty-two truck-stock items under an MR- prefix, in eight categories: containment (6 mil poly, zipper doors, double-sided tape, tacky mats), air filtration (HEPA and pre-filters for the negative air machines, HEPA vacuum bags), chemicals (EPA-registered antimicrobial, fungistatic encapsulant, borate wood treatment), PPE (hooded coveralls, P100 cartridges), disposal (6 mil waste bags), encapsulation (12 mil crawl barrier, seam tape, vent covers), dehumidification (70-pint ducted unit, MERV 11 filter), sampling (spore trap cassettes, surface media).

Cost and price are a national average, on hand is zero and no reorder point is set, because nothing here knows what is on your truck. Counting it is your first pass. Thirty-two bill-of-materials rows tie those parts to sixteen services. Per-square-foot consumption is the number to check: Full Containment carries 0.03 coveralls, 0.01 cartridge pairs and 0.005 boxes of waste bags per sq ft, so a 200 sq ft job burns 6 suits, 2 cartridge pairs and a box of bags. Run three men in and out of a decon chamber all day and suits go faster. Parts and Inventory

Seasonal pricing proposals

Six, all switched off. Humid Season Peak on Mold Remediation with Full Containment, Jun 1 to Sep 15, x1.15. Storm Season on Emergency After-Hours Response, Aug 1 to Oct 31, x1.25. Spring Thaw and Rain on Structural Drying, Mar 1 to May 31, x1.12. Winter Slow Season on Mold Remediation, Limited Area, Jan 1 to Feb 28, x0.90. The engine ignores an inactive rule, so nothing moves until you turn one on. The calendar assumes a freeze climate. On the Gulf coast the humid rule runs most of the year, and the winter discount is money on the table. Seasonal Pricing

Typical workflow

• Sell the assessment. Moisture source, extent in square feet, condition class, readings and photos, written scope the same day. That report is what your estimate and any second opinion get measured against.
• Remediation goes out as an estimate with a deposit, because containment and equipment land on site before anyone has paid. See Estimates and Deposits.
• A wet call is a drying call first. Emergency Water Loss Response bills the after-hours premium, drying and scrubbers; quote the remediation off the second visit, once you know what stayed wet.
• Demo, the plumbing repair and the finish rebuild are often somebody else's crew. Track them in Subcontractors and flag the row billed-to-customer only when the GC pays that vendor direct.
• Opening the wall finds three times the growth the estimate priced. That is a Change Order, not a quiet edit.
• Annual Moisture Control Visit is recurring revenue and the reason a dehumidifier customer calls you instead of the next guy. Wrap it in a Service Agreement and put it on a recurring job.

Containment, clearance and the file that protects you

Nobody who pays the invoice can see whether your containment held. The checklist numbers are the proof: manometer reading each shift, machine count, air changes, and a photo of the chamber before anything came out. Logged on the job they are a file. Logged on a clipboard that stays in the van they are nothing.

Clearance is the other half. The convention is that the firm doing the remediation does not clear its own work, and several states write that into licensing, so check yours before you bill Post-Remediation Clearance Testing to a customer. Where you can bill it, run the samples and price it as the pack does. Where you cannot, put the hygienist's invoice on the job as a cost so the fee lands against that job's margin instead of overhead.

Nothing gets closed before the clearance letter is in hand, and the cavity has to read at or below the reference dry standard before insulation goes back. A wall closed wet comes back as a warranty claim, and the clearance letter plus the job photos is the whole defense. Push the containment and cleaned-cavity photos out through the Customer Portal the day they are taken.

Re-applying and mixing packs

Applying the pack twice adds only what is missing, and never overwrites a price you set or a checklist item you rewrote.

Mold shops commonly run a second pack: Water Restoration if you take the loss on the first call instead of inheriting it dry, Foundation Repair because the wet crawl space and the wall letting water in are the same job, HVAC if you do more than the one duct decontamination line here, and Painting or Handyman if you put the room back yourself. Apply as many as fit from Vertical Packs.
