Typical 10 Step Procedure for Mold Remediation

  1. Find the source. Locate the root of the water intrusion. This must be pinpointed and corrected in order to prevent the water intrusion to from occurring again.
  2. Visual Inspection of the Water Damage. Expert technicians look for visible Microbial growth and look in areas that could be missed.
  3. Diagnostic Testing. Specialized equipment can "sniff out" invisibly mold which may be lurking in the walls, on stud framing and drywall. The mold testing meters ensure thorough testing for. If necessary, air sample tests are conducted by a certified mold assessor or Indoor Environmental Professional (IEP). The IEP takes samples and tests every suspected room. Every mold isn't the same, and the right tests will be able to distinguish deadly mold from nuisance mold.
  4. Establish Containment. The protection of the household and the rest of the home against airborne mold spores by establishing containment. This provides a safe area for removal work to begin. The kind of containment that is used will differ according to the zone of contamination:
    • Source: small areas of contamination less then 10 square. ft. Bagged and removed.
    • Local: One room which can be closed off and remediated, usually 10 sq. ft. to 100 sq. ft.
    • Full-Containment areas where there is a need for a temporary containment wall for temporary containment to prevent cross-contamination. The barrier is used to isolate the whole room or multiple rooms.
  5. Air Filtration. The installation of mobile air filtration units to purify the air and enhance air quality in the home. Protecting the family from airborne pathogens is achieved through the establishment of negative air pressures between the air-contaminated zone and the rest of the home.
  6. Get rid of the Mold. Behind safety barriers, technicians are able to remove materials affected by mold. This may include baseboards, drywall and cabinets, sinks or counters, and flooring in kitchens. Removal of drywall from ceilings or insulation may be necessary if the roof leak is involved. It could involve removing tubs or fixtures in the bathroom if it has entered the walls due to leaking pipes. Highly skilled technicians are meticulous in keeping what is saved while taking care to ensure removal of any trace of mold.
  7. Mold Treatment. After damaged materials were removed professional-grade treatment and removal products are employed, following IICRC guidelines. The surfaces that remain are cleaned and treated.
  8. Air Purification. After removal and treatment has been completed, air purification is performed for several days.
  9. Post-Remediation Air Sample Testing. Once the air purification protocol is completed after the air purification protocol is completed, post-remediation air sample testing will be carried out and must be given an acceptable grade through the IEP.
  10. Equipment Removal. When the post-remediation testing is completed and air samples are considered acceptable by an 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 bath as needed.

What to look for when Finding a Mold Remediation Company

  • The Right Price Trustworthy mold removal companies will never cost more than necessary. They thoroughly inspect homes and suggest work necessary to return the home to a healthy condition. Be wary of businesses that may inflate prices or bill you for pad costs.
  • The Right Ethics Find reputable companies in the location and the surrounding areas. They should have fair rates and only suggest work that is necessary in order to restore your home and ensure the safety of your family. Companies that are reputable stand behind their work 100%.

  • The Right Practices Ensure that the mold removal company employs safe practices to protect your family. For example, appropriate methods such as HEPA vacuuming to control dust or spores control is always preferred over misting, which can introduce additional moisture into the area.
  • The Credentials You Need Find 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 work according to the most stringent standards every day. From the beginning of the phone call up to the post-remediation inspection, they should treat every customer like family and every home in the same way as it were their home.
