The typical 10 Step Procedure for removing mold

  1. Find the source. Locate the root of the water intrusion. The source must be identified and rectified in order to prevent the water intrusion to from happening again.
  2. Visual Inspection of the Water Damage. Expert technicians look for visible microbial growth, looking in places that may be overlooked.
  3. Diagnostic Testing. Specialized equipment can "sniff out" invisible mold which may be lurking in the walls, stud framing and drywall. The mold testing meters ensure thorough detection. When necessary, air sample tests can be conducted by an certified mold assessor or Indoor Environmental Professional (IEP). The IEP collects samples and examines every room suspected of having mold. All mold is not the same, and the appropriate tests will be able to distinguish deadly mold from merely nuisance mold.
  4. Establish Containment. Protecting the members of the family and the remainder of the home in the home from the airborne mold spores by creating containment. This creates an safe border for removal of the mold to start. The kind of containment used will vary in accordance with the area of contamination:
    • Source: small areas of contamination, less then 10 square. ft. Bagged and removed.
    • Local is One room which is able to be sealed off and remediated, usually 10 sq. feet. to 100 sq. ft.
    • Full-Containment areas where there is a need for the use of a temporary containment wall to prevent cross-contamination. It is used to block off the entire area or multiple rooms.
  5. Air Filtration. The installation of small portable air filtration units to purify the air and enhance air quality in the home. The protection of the family from the spread of airborne pathogens is achieved through the establishment of negative air pressures between the affected area and the rest of the home.
  6. Take out the Mold. Behind safety barriers, the technicians start to remove materials impacted by mold. This may include drywall, baseboards and cabinets, sinks or counters, and flooring in a kitchen. Removal of drywall covering ceilings or insulation may be necessary when there was a roof leak was involved. It might include removing bathtubs or fixtures in the bathroom if it has entered the walls as a result of leaky pipes. Highly skilled technicians are meticulous in conserving what can be kept while also ensuring removal of all evidence of mold.
  7. Treatment for Mold. Once damaged materials are removed, professional-grade treatment and removal products are applied, following IICRC guidelines. The rest of the surfaces are cleaned and treated.
  8. Air Purification. Once removal and treatment is finished, air purification is performed for a number of days.
  9. Post-Remediation Air Sample Testing. Once the air purification protocol is complete, post-remediation air sample testing will be carried out and is given a passing score through the IEP.
  10. Equipment Removal. Once the post-remediation testing is finished and air tests are accepted by a certified mold assessor or IEP, containment barriers and equipment is removed. This leaves a clean palette to bring in contractors to replace the walls or flooring or renovate the kitchen or bathroom as needed.

What to Look for When Hiring an Mold Remediation Company

  • The Right Price Trustworthy mold removal firms will never be charged for work that is not necessary. They carefully inspect homes and recommend works necessary to return the home to the 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 must offer reasonable prices and only suggest work that is necessary to restore your home and ensure your family's safety. Companies that are reputable stand behind their work 100%.
  • The Right Time NOW! When you have mold and you're concerned about it, you'll want it removed immediately. Call for someone to start the drying process and determine the cause, and begin testing to identify the solution to the problem.
  • The Best Practices Be sure the mold removal company uses safe procedures for your family. For instance, safe methods such as HEPA vacuuming for dust/spore control are superior to misting, which can bring additional moisture into the area.
  • The Right Credentials Seek out technicians certified in WRT (Water Restoration Technician), ASD (Applied Structural Drying), and AMRT (Applied Microbial Remediation Technician).
  • The Right Team Professional teams adhere according to the most stringent standards throughout the day. From the very first phone call up to the post-remediation inspection, they should treat every customer like family and each home as if it was their own.
