Visual Microbial Growth. Dark splotches on the ceilings, walls floors or baseboards. Spots on the ceiling may indicate a leaking roof or a burst pipe or condensation in the ductwork. Dark patches or the appearance of brown or black mold that are visible on the walls may indicate cracks or burst pipe that is hidden behind the wall. This may be an incipient leak, but the damage will only increase.

A Typical 10 Step Method to Remove Mold

Find the source. Locate the origin of the water intrusion. This must be pinpointed and rectified in order to prevent the water intrusion from occurring again.
Visual Inspection of the Water Damage. Expert technicians look for visible Microbial growth and look in places that may be missed.
Diagnostic Testing. The equipment is specially designed to "sniff out" invisibly mold that may be hiding in the walls, on stud framing and drywall. The mold testing devices ensure thorough identification. When necessary, air sample tests can be taken by a certified mold assessor or Indoor Environmental Professional (IEP). The IEP will take samples and examines every room suspected of having mold. Each mold is not the exact same and the proper tests will be able to distinguish deadly mold from nuisance mold.
Establish Containment. Protection of the household and the rest of the home from the airborne mold spores by creating containment. This creates the safe border to allow removal and work can begin. The type of containment employed will differ in accordance with the area of contamination:
- Source: small areas of contamination smaller than 10 sq. ft. Bagged and removed.
- Local: One room which can be sealed off and cleaned, typically 10 sq. feet. to 100 sq. ft.
- Full Containment: areas which require an interim containment wall in order to prevent cross-contamination. The barrier is used to isolate the whole room or several rooms.
Air Filtration. The installation of mobile air filtration units that purify the air and improve air quality in the home. The protection of the family from airborne pathogens can be achieved by creating negative air tension between the contaminated area and the rest of the home.
Remove the Mold. Behind security barriers, technicians are able to remove materials affected by mold. This may include drywall, baseboards as well as sinks, cabinets or counters, and flooring in a kitchen. Removal of drywall from ceilings or insulation may be necessary if a roof leak occurred. It could involve removing tubs or fixtures in the bathroom if the water has penetrated the walls because of leaky pipes. Professionally trained technicians are meticulous in keeping what is preserved while taking care to ensure removal of any trace of mold.
Treatment for Mold. Once damaged materials are removed, professional-grade treatment and removal tools are used, following IICRC guidelines. The remaining surfaces are then cleaned and treated.
Air Purification. Once removal and treatment is complete, air purification is performed for a number of days.
Post-Remediation Air Sample Testing. Once the air purification process is complete after the air purification protocol is completed, following remediation air sample testing will be conducted and must be awarded a passing grade by the IEP.
Equipment Removal. When after post-remediation testing is complete and air tests are accepted by a certified mold assessor or IEP, containment barriers and equipment is removed. This creates a clear canvas to bring in contractors to replace walls or flooring or remodel the kitchen or bath as needed.

What to Look for When Hiring a Mold Remediation Company

The Right Price Trustworthy mold removal companies will not charge for more work than necessary. They will carefully examine homes and suggest the works necessary in order to bring the home to a healthy condition. Beware of firms that could inflate prices or pad bills.
The Right Ethics Choose reputable businesses in the "location" and nearby areas. They must offer reasonable prices and only recommend work that is absolutely necessary in order to restore your home and ensure family safety. Companies that are reputable stand behind their work completely.
The Right Time NOW! When you have mold that is causing you problems, you need it removed now. Contact someone to begin the drying process, identify the cause, and begin testing to determine how to fix the problem.
The Best Practices Ensure that the mold removal company uses safe procedures to protect your family. For example, appropriate methods like HEPA vacuuming for dust and spore control is always preferred over misting, which could introduce more moisture into the zone.
The Credentials You Need Find technicians certified in Water Restoration Technician (Water Restoration Technician), ASD (Applied Structural Drying), and AMRT (Applied Microbial Remediation Technician).
The Right Team Professional teams adhere in accordance with the highest standards throughout the day. From the beginning of the phone call up to the post-remediation inspection, they should treat every client as family and each home like it was their own.
