It’s certainly scary to find yourself dealing with a home mold problem. While there is reason to be concerned about your health when there’s mold present, it can also be expensive to eliminate. The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) notes that individuals can attempt to clean mold themselves if the area is less than 10 square feet.
For larger mold areas, homeowners will need to contact a professional cleaning and remediation service. Mold cleaning and repairs can cost $500 to $4,000 for a crawlspace, although adding ducts, walls or an attic can drive the cost to $6,000 or more. Most homeowners will need some form of financial help for this process.
