[ Construction mold pre-spray ]

Construction mold pre-spray in Spokane & Coeur d'Alene.

Lumber gets rained on and framing sits open through winter. Mold that starts inside a wall during construction shows up months later as a callback or a mold remediation job. A pre-spray protects the structure before it's closed in.

Mold that starts inside a wall during construction doesn't stay there.

[ What SurfaceShield does ]

A clear protectant that blocks mold's food.

We apply SurfaceShield® Protectant, the same product used as the final step on mold remediation jobs.

  1. Blocks mold-supporting nutrients
  2. Can be applied to building materials at 11% to 30% moisture content, unlike many protectants that need dry wood
  3. Breathable barrier that lets moisture evaporate
  4. Dries clear and doesn't change how materials look
  5. Won't blister or peel the way antimicrobial paints can
  6. Low-VOC, applied with an airless sprayer
  7. Contains an EPA-registered preservative that inhibits mold and mildew growth on the dried coating
[ Where it goes ]

Applied before you close it in.

  • Wall and floor framing
  • Roof sheathing and trusses
  • Subfloors and crawlspace framing
  • Other porous surfaces, such as wood and drywall
[ How it works ]

Four steps, before insulation.

  1. Walkthrough

    We look at the framing stage, moisture exposure, and square footage.

  2. Moisture check

    We confirm materials are within the product's application range.

  3. Application

    We spray framing and sheathing before insulation and drywall.

  4. Record

    You get a record of what was applied and where for your project file.

Pre-spray protects materials and reduces risk. It doesn't replace fixing leaks or keeping a building dry. If mold is already present, mold remediation comes first and SurfaceShield is applied afterward as the final step.

[ Who it's for ]

Who calls us.

  • Builders and general contractors who want fewer moisture-related callbacks
  • Homeowners building or adding on in a wet climate
  • Remodelers closing up walls after water exposure
[ FAQ ]

Common questions.

What is a construction mold pre-spray?

A protectant applied to framing and other building materials before the structure is closed in. It helps guard against mold and mildew staining and damage if materials get wet or stay damp during construction.

Does SurfaceShield work on damp lumber?

SurfaceShield can be applied to building materials with a moisture content of 11% to 30%, unlike many protectants that require dry wood. Moisture levels are confirmed before spraying.

Does pre-spray replace mold remediation?

No. If mold is already growing it needs to be removed first. Pre-spray protects clean materials, and SurfaceShield is used as the final step after mold remediation.
