In the event that it is necessary, air sample tests can be taken by a certified mold assessor or Indoor Environmental Professional (IEP). The IEP takes samples and examines every room suspected of having mold. Each mold isn't the same, and the proper tests can separate deadly mold from nuisance mold.

    • Source: small areas of contamination smaller then 10 square. ft. Bagged and removed.
    • Local is one room that can be sealed off and remedied, usually 10 sq. ft. to 100 sq. ft.
    • Full-Containment areas where there is a need for the use of a temporary containment barrier for temporary containment to prevent cross-contamination. Used to seal off an entire room or several rooms.
  5. Air Filtration. The installation of mobile air filtration units to purify the air and improve air quality in the home. Protecting the family from the spread of airborne pathogens is achieved through the establishment of negative air tension between the affected area and the rest of the home.
  6. Get rid of the Mold. Behind safety barriers, technicians start to remove materials that are impacted by mold. This may include drywall, baseboards and sinks, cabinets or counters, and flooring in a kitchen. The removal of drywall from ceilings or insulation may be necessary if a roof leak occurred. It might involve removing bathtubs or fixtures in the bathroom, if it has entered 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 any trace of mold.
  7. Treatment for Mold. Once damaged materials have been removed professional-grade treatment and removal tools are used, following IICRC guidelines. The remaining surfaces are cleaned and treated.
  8. Air Purification. After removal and treatment is complete, air purification is performed for several days.
  9. Post-Remediation Air Sample Testing. After the air purification procedure is completed, following remediation air sample testing will be carried out and is given an acceptable mark by the IEP.
  10. Equipment Removal. After after post-remediation testing is completed and air samples are deemed acceptable by an certified mold assessor or IEP, containment barriers and equipment is removed.
