Simple Signs That You Could Have a Mold Problem

  1. The smell of mold is quite distinctive. It's a unique smell. Even if you can't see anything, you still know that it's there.
  2. visible microbial growth. Dark splotches on the ceilings, walls, floors, or baseboards. Splotches across the ceiling may be a sign of a leaky roof or burst pipe or condensation in ductwork. Dark patches or the appearance of brown or black mold on the walls may indicate a cracked or burst pipe that is hidden behind the drywall. This may be an incipient leak, but the damage is likely to become worse.
  3. Soft Moist Spots on the Floors, Walls or Ceiling. This might be a sign that the microbial growth is occurring. Mold may have not been visible right now, but it could be hidden behind the drywall or on the support studs, underneath the flooring or in the roof of your home.
  4. Sudden Unexplained Illness. A constant cough, headache and nausea or feeling sick only at home or in certain areas. These persistent allergy-type symptoms may indicate mold exists. The four groups that are most vulnerable to the effects of mold are:
    • Children
    • Senior citizens
    • Immune-compromised
    • Pregnant Women
  5. A recent Flood Event. The spores need water to grow and, therefore, a recent leak, flood, or sewer back-up could have triggered the appropriate water activity needed in order to support mold growth.

A Typical 10 Step Method to Remove Mold

  1. Find the source. Determine the root of the water intrusion. The source must be identified and corrected in order to prevent the water intrusion from repeating itself.
  2. A visible inspection of the Water Damage. Expert technicians inspect for obvious microbe growth, looking in areas that could be missed.
  3. Diagnostic Testing. Specialized equipment can "sniff out" undetectable mold that may be hiding behind walls, stud framing and drywall. The mold testing instruments ensure thorough testing for. When 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. Each mold is not the identical, and the proper tests will be able to distinguish deadly mold from nuisance mold.
  4. Establish Containment. Protecting the family and the rest of the home in the home from airborne mold spores by establishing containment. This establishes an safe area for removal work to begin. The kind of containment employed will differ according to the area of contamination:
    • Source: small areas of contamination, less than 10 sq. ft. Bagged and removed.
    • Local: One room which can be sealed off and cleaned, typically 10 sq. feet. up to 100 sq. ft.
    • Full-Containment areas which require an interim containment barriers in order to prevent cross-contamination. It is used to block off the whole room or multiple rooms.
  5. Air Filtration. Installation of small portable air filtration units to purify the air and enhance air quality in the home. In order to protect the family from the spread of airborne pathogens is accomplished by establishing negative air pressures between the affected area and the remainder of the home.
  6. Take out the Mold. Behind safety barriers, technicians start to remove materials that are impacted by mold. This may include baseboards, drywall and cabinets, sinks or counters, and flooring in the kitchen. The removal of drywall on ceilings or insulation may be necessary if there was a roof leak occurred. It might involve removing tubs or fixtures in the bathroom if it has penetrated the walls due to leaking pipes. Skilled technicians take great care in preserving what can be preserved while taking care to ensure removal of all evidence of mold.
  7. Treatment for Mold. Once damaged materials are removed, professional grade treatment and removal items are employed, following IICRC guidelines. The remaining surfaces are then cleaned and treated.
  8. Air Purification. After removal and treatment has been complete, air purification is performed for a number of days.
  9. Post-Remediation Air Sample Testing. After the air purification procedure is complete, post-remediation air sample testing will be carried out and must be awarded an A+ grade through the IEP.
  10. Equipment Removal. When post-remediation testing is complete and air sample is accepted by a certified mold assessor or IEP, containment barriers and equipment is removed. This creates a clear canvas to bring in contractors to repair the walls or flooring or remodel the kitchen or bathroom as needed.
