Dark spots or the appearance of brown or black mold on the walls may indicate a cracked or burst pipe in the wall. This may be an ongoing leak, however the damage can only become worse.
Soft Moist Spots on the Floors, Walls or Ceiling. This may be a sign that the microbial growth may be present. The mold may have not been visible right now, but it could be hidden behind the drywall, on the supporting studs, beneath the flooring or in the roof of your home.

Typical 10 Step Process for removing mold

Find the Source. Determine the source of the water intrusion. The source must be identified and corrected so as to prevent the water intrusion from happening again.
Visible Inspection of the The Water Damage. Expert technicians examine for visible Microbial growth, looking in areas that could be overlooked.
Diagnostic Testing. The equipment is specially designed to "sniff out" invisible mold that may be lurking behind walls, on framing studs and drywall. The mold testing meters ensure thorough testing for. In the event that it is necessary, air sample tests can be taken by an certified mold assessor or Indoor Environmental Professional (IEP). The IEP takes samples and test every suspected room. Each mold is not the exact same and the proper tests will be able to distinguish deadly mold from just nuisance mold.
Establish Containment. Protecting the household and the rest of the home in the home from the airborne mold spores by establishing containment. This provides the safe area for 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 than 10 sq. ft. Bagged and removed.
- Local is an area that is able to be sealed off and remedied, usually 10 sq. ft. to 100 sq. ft.
- Full Containment: areas which require the use of a temporary containment barrier in order to prevent cross-contamination. It is used to block off an entire room or multiple rooms.
Air Filtration. Installation of small portable air filtration units to cleanse the air and improve air quality in the home. Protecting the family from the spread of airborne pathogens can be achieved by creating negative air pressures between the contaminated area and the remainder of the home.
Get rid of the Mold. Behind safety barriers, the technicians begin to remove materials affected by mold. This may include drywall, baseboards, sinks, cabinets or counters, and flooring in a kitchen. Removal of drywall on ceilings or insulation may be necessary in the event of the roof leak was involved. It may include removing tubs or fixtures in the bathroom if it has been able to penetrate the walls due to leaking pipes. Highly skilled technicians are meticulous in conserving what can be kept while also taking care to ensure removal of all traces of mold.
Mold Treatment. After damaged materials have been removed professional grade treatment and removal items are employed, following IICRC guidelines. The surfaces that remain are cleaned and treated.
Air Purification. Once removal and treatment is finished, air purification is performed for a number of days.
Post-Remediation Air Sample Testing. Once the air purification process is completed after the air purification protocol is completed, following remediation air sample testing will be conducted and is given an acceptable score in accordance with the IEP.
Equipment Removal. When after post-remediation testing is complete and air tests are accepted by an certified mold assessor or IEP, containment barriers and equipment is removed. This creates a clear canvas to bring in contractors to repair walls or flooring or remodel the kitchen or bathroom as needed.
