Crawl Space CleaningMice Droppings Cleanup and Disinfection in a Stamford Crawl Space
A Stamford, CT homeowner found mice droppings in the crawl space. The activity turned out to reach across the full 2,400 square foot footprint: droppings and dead mice on the floor, chewed and soiled batt insulation, and damaged duct wrap. Green Restoration built a sealed containment with an airlock and decon chamber, tore out 1,800 square feet of contaminated insulation, cleaned and HEPA vacuumed the entire joist system, and treated the space with a plant-based antimicrobial under five days of negative air.
Crawl Space CleaningDeteriorated Underfloor Insulation Removal and Sanitizing in Weston
Deteriorated fiberglass batt insulation had failed across 1,265 square feet of floor joist bays under a Weston, CT home, sagging out of the bays and breaking apart around dense runs of wiring and ductwork. Green Restoration removed and bagged every square foot of it, HEPA vacuumed the joist bays, subfloor decking and framing, then treated the cleaned wood with an EPA-registered antimicrobial.
Water DamageCeiling Leak Water Damage in a Litchfield Home

Crawl Space CleaningCrawl Space Cleanup and Fallen Insulation Removal in Norwalk
Roughly 300 square feet of foam board insulation had fallen from the subfloor of a 1,350 square foot Norwalk, CT crawl space, leaving debris scattered across the vapor barrier. Working through a restricted access opening, Green Restoration contained the space, removed the fallen insulation and debris, HEPA cleaned the joists, subfloor, and floor, and treated every cleaned surface with an EPA-registered antimicrobial.
Water DamageWater Damaged Ceiling Collapse in a Bridgeport Dining Room
Water tracked through a dining room ceiling in a Bridgeport, CT home long enough to soak the insulation above it, and the ceiling let go. Green Restoration metered the room before touching anything, contained and protected the space, removed the saturated drywall and insulation from the ceiling and the wall beside the window, HEPA cleaned the exposed joists and stud wall, and ran a documented structural dry.
Crawl Space CleaningRodent Contamination Cleanup in a 978 Square Foot Bedford Crawl Space
Years of rodent activity had contaminated the 978 square foot crawl space under a Bedford, NY home: droppings across the framing and slab, nests in the duct insulation, and a failed vapor barrier. Green Restoration built a sealed containment corridor with a decontamination chamber, removed 475 square feet of contaminated insulation and 500 linear feet of lower drywall, HEPA vacuumed the full footprint, and treated every surface with a plant-based antimicrobial by damp wipe and ULV fog under three days of HEPA negative air.
Crawl Space CleaningSunroom Crawl Space Insulation and Encapsulation in Greenwich
The sunroom of a Greenwich, CT home sat over a narrow crawl space with a rubble fieldstone foundation and aging batting insulation. In one working day, Green Restoration removed the old batting and debris, spot-sealed the rim joists and foundation stone with foam sealant, installed R-21 mineral wool tight to the floor line, and lined the space with a 12 mil encapsulation system: white poly on the walls, dimple matting and taped 12 mil poly on the floor.
Mold RemediationLiving Room Ceiling Mold Remediation in a Fairfield Home
Water tracking above a Fairfield, CT living room had grown heavy mold across the ceiling sheathing and joists, hidden behind intact drywall. Green Restoration mapped the moisture, built 240 square feet of sealed containment with a decontamination airlock in an occupied home, removed the affected ceiling and insulation under HEPA negative air, then HEPA vacuumed, cleaned, and sealed the exposed joist system.
Environmental CleaningThe Cloths Went In Yellow: Deep Sanitization of an Ossining Apartment
Microfiber cloths went into this occupied Ossining, NY apartment yellow and came out grey and black. Green Restoration hand cleaned 1,600 square feet of ceilings, walls, trim and floors in three passes, with every HVAC register sealed first and HEPA negative air running across nine 24 hour periods.
Mold RemediationMold Remediation Across Two Lower-Level Rooms in Wallingford
Mold had grown in a dark band along the base of the walls in two lower-level rooms of a Wallingford, CT home. Green Restoration measured the affected footprint, cut out the contaminated drywall and baseboard, then HEPA vacuumed and deep cleaned 440 square feet of surface under two HEPA air scrubbers.
Environmental CleaningRodent Contamination Cleanup Across a 1,420 Square Foot Norwalk Basement
Mice had been living in the ceiling insulation across the full basement of a Norwalk, CT home, on both the finished and unfinished sides. Green Restoration built a zippered containment barrier, ran three HEPA negative air scrubbers, tore out and bagged 1,420 square feet of soiled insulation plus 850 square feet of ceiling tile and 250 square feet of affected drywall, bio cleaned the entire joist system, and fogged the space with a plant based antimicrobial. Roughly four tons of contaminated material left the property in a 20 yard dumpster.
Water DamageCategory 3 Water Cleanup Across a 1,200 Square Foot Norwich Basement
Water had been getting into the basement of a Norwich, CT home long enough to leave a rust stained trail across the slab, damp standing water at the utility corner, and rot in the door frame at the entry. Because the intrusion met the Category 3 definition, Green Restoration worked it as contaminated water rather than as a drying job: poly containment first, extraction off the hard surface flooring, 1,200 square feet of detailed floor cleaning and HEPA vacuuming, an EPA registered antimicrobial across the affected area, and a HEPA air scrubber running on site for three days.
Water DamageGarage Ceiling Water Damage from the Bathroom Above in South Hadley
A palm sized piece of drywall hanging off a South Hadley garage ceiling was the only thing visible from the floor. The water was in the cavity above it, in the insulation between the garage and the bathroom overhead. Green Restoration built containment in the garage, opened 64 square feet of ceiling, pulled the wet insulation out, HEPA vacuumed and coated the exposed joists, and dried the cavity over three days with daily moisture readings.
Mold RemediationCrawl Space Mold Remediation Across 770 Square Feet in Fairfield
The crawl space under this Fairfield home ran the full footprint of the house, and the mold was on the structure itself rather than on anything that could simply be thrown away. Green Restoration worked it as a cleaning job under containment: HEPA negative air and LGR dehumidification running for four days, 770 square feet of joists and subfloor sheathing HEPA vacuumed by hand, and a plant based antimicrobial fogged across the same 770 square feet once the physical cleaning was done.
