Simple Signs That You Could Have a Mold Problem

  1. A sour smell. It's a unique smell. Even if it's impossible to see anything, you still know it's there.
  2. Visible Microbial Growth. Dark splotches on the walls, ceiling, floors, or baseboards. Splotches across the ceiling may suggest a leaky roof, burst pipe, or condensation in the ductwork. Dark spots or the appearance of brown or black mold on the walls may suggest cracks or burst pipe that is hidden behind the drywall. This may be an incipient leak, but the damage can only get worse.
  3. Soft moist areas on the floors, walls or Ceiling. This could indicate that the microbial growth is present. Mold may not be visible at this point but it may be behind the drywall, on the supportive studs, under floors, or in the attic of your home.
  4. Inexplicable health issue. A constant cough, headache and nausea or feeling ill only when you are at home or in certain spaces. The persistent symptoms of allergies may be a sign that mold may be present. The 4 groups most susceptible to illnesses caused by mold include:
    • Children
    • The Elderly
    • Immune-compromised
    • Women who are pregnant
  5. Recently Flood Event. The spores require water to grow which is why a recent water leak or flood, or sewer back-up could have triggered the appropriate water activity required to support mold growth.

A Typical 10 Step Process to Remove Mold

  1. Find the Source. Determine the root of the water intrusion. The source must be identified and remedied in order to prevent the water intrusion from happening again.
  2. Visual Inspection of the The Water Damage. Expert technicians examine for obvious microbe growth, looking in areas that could be overlooked.
  3. Diagnostic Testing. The equipment is specially designed to "sniff out" invisibly mold and other mold that may be lurking behind walls, on framing studs and drywall. The mold testing devices ensure thorough detection. If necessary, air sample tests can be taken by a certified mold assessor or Indoor Environmental Professional (IEP). The IEP will take samples and tests every suspected room. Every mold is not the identical, and the right tests can separate deadly mold from nuisance mold.
  4. Establish Containment. The protection of the family and the rest of the home from airborne mold spores by creating containment. This provides an safe border to allow removal of the mold to start. The kind of containment used will vary according to the zone of contamination:
    • Source: small areas of contamination, less that 10 sq. ft. Bagged and removed.
    • Local is an area that is able to be sealed off and remedied, usually 10 sq. ft. up to 100 sq. ft.
    • Full Containment: areas where there is a need for a temporary containment barriers in order to prevent cross-contamination. Used to seal off an entire room or multiple rooms.
  5. Air Filtration. Installation of small portable air filtration units to cleanse the air and improve air quality in the home. In order to protect the family from pathogens that are transmitted by air is achieved through the establishment of negative air pressure between the affected area and the rest of the home.
  6. Take out the Mold. Behind safety barriers, technicians start to remove materials affected by mold. This may include drywall, baseboards as well as sinks, cabinets or counters, and flooring in a kitchen. The removal of drywall on ceilings or insulation may be necessary when the roof leak occurred. It may require removing bathtubs or fixtures in the bathroom if it has penetrated the walls as a result of leaky pipes. Skilled technicians take great care in preserving what can be kept while also taking care to ensure removal of all traces of mold.
  7. Treatment for Mold. Once the damaged materials are removed, professional grade treatment and removal products are used, following IICRC guidelines. The surfaces that remain are cleaned and treated.
  8. Air Purification. After removal and treatment complete, the treatment and removal completed, air purification is performed for a number of days.
  9. Post-Remediation Air Sample Testing. Once the air purification process is completed, after the post-remediation air sample testing will be conducted and must be awarded an acceptable mark in accordance with the IEP.
  10. Equipment Removal. Once the post-remediation testing is completed and air tests are accepted by a certified mold assessor or IEP, containment barriers and equipment is removed. This provides a clean canvas to bring in contractors to repair flooring or flooring or renovate the kitchen or bathroom as needed.

What to Look for When Hiring an Mold Remediation Company

  • The Right Price A reputable mold removal firms will never charge for more work than required. They thoroughly inspect homes and suggest the works necessary to restore the home to a healthy state. Be wary of firms that could overcharge you or bill you for pad costs.
  • The Right Ethics Look for well-respected companies in the "location" and nearby areas. They must offer reasonable prices and only suggest work that is necessary for you to restore your home and ensure family safety. Trustworthy companies guarantee their work completely.
  • The Right Time NOW! If you notice mold and you're concerned about it, you'll want to get rid of it immediately. Contact someone to begin the drying process to identify the cause, and begin testing to identify the solution to the problem.
  • The Best Practices Ensure that the mold removal company uses safe practices for your family. For example, appropriate methods like HEPA vacuuming for dust/spore control are superior to misting, which can bring an increase in moisture into the space.
  • The right credentials Seek out technicians certified in the areas of WRT (Water Restoration Technician), ASD (Applied Structural Drying), and AMRT (Applied Microbial Remediation Technician).
  • The Right Team Professional teams adhere to the highest standards throughout the day. From the beginning of the phone call to the post-remediation inspection the team should treat every customer like family and every home as if it is their home.
