Because Stachybotrys requires source removal, not just surface treatment. The contaminated drywall + insulation + (sometimes) framing must come out under HEPA negative pressure. Spraying alone leaves the contamination intact and disperses spores during the spray itself.
By square footage of contamination + class. Class III Stachybotrys typically $25-$45 per sq ft including containment, removal, antimicrobial, and lab clearance. Reconstruction quoted separately at $4-$9 per sq ft. 44119 jobs disclosed line-item on every estimate.
Surface antimicrobial residual lasts 30-90 days; the more important factor is removing the moisture source so mold can't re-establish. The 12-month re-treat guarantee covers any failure tied to the treated area.
