The typical 10 Step Method for Mold Remediation

  1. Find the Source. Locate the origin of the water intrusion. This must be pinpointed and rectified to prevent the water intrusion from happening again.
  2. Visual Inspection of the Water Damage. Expert technicians examine for visible microbial growth and look in places that may be overlooked.
  3. Diagnostic Testing. The equipment is specially designed to "sniff out" invisibly mold which may be lurking behind walls, on stud framing and drywall. Mold testing devices ensure thorough detection. If necessary, air sample tests can be taken by an certified mold assessor or Indoor Environmental Professional (IEP). The IEP takes samples and tests every suspected room. Every mold isn't the exact same and the appropriate tests can separate deadly mold from just nuisance mold.
  4. Establish Containment. Protecting the family and the rest of the home against airborne mold spores by establishing containment. This creates a safe area to allow removal work to begin. The type of containment employed will differ according to the location of contamination:
    • Source: small areas of contamination smaller then 10 square. ft. Bagged and removed.
    • Local is one room that can be sealed off and cleaned, typically 10 sq. feet. up to 100 sq. ft.
    • Full containment areas that require the use of a temporary containment barrier to prevent cross-contamination. Used to seal off an entire room or several rooms.
  5. Air Filtration. The installation of mobile air filtration units to cleanse the air and improve air quality in the home. Protecting the family from pathogens that are transmitted by air can be achieved by creating negative air tension between the air-contaminated zone and the rest of the home.
  6. Remove the Mold. Behind security barriers, technicians start to remove materials impacted 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 when there was a roof leak is involved. It may include removing bathtubs or fixtures in the bathroom if it has penetrated the walls due to leaking pipes. Highly skilled technicians are meticulous in preserving what can be saved while ensuring removal of all traces of mold.
  7. Treatment for Mold. After damaged materials are removed, professional-grade treatment and removal products are employed, following IICRC guidelines. The rest of the surfaces are cleaned and treated.
  8. Air Purification. Once removal and treatment complete, the treatment and removal finished, air purification is performed for several days.
  9. Post-Remediation Air Sample Testing. After the air purification process is complete after the air purification protocol is completed, following remediation air sample testing takes place. carried out and must be awarded an acceptable mark in accordance with the IEP.
  10. Equipment Removal. After post-remediation testing is complete and air samples are accepted by an IEP certified mold assessor or IEP, containment barriers and equipment is removed. This leaves a clean palette to bring in contractors to repair the walls or flooring or redesign the kitchen or bathroom as needed.

What to look for when Hiring an Mold Remediation Company

  • The Right Price Trustworthy mold removal companies will not be charged for work that is not needed. They carefully inspect homes and recommend works necessary to restore the home to a healthy condition. Be cautious of businesses that may increase prices or bill you for pad costs.
  • The Right Ethics Find reputable companies in the location and nearby areas. They should have fair rates and only recommend work that is absolutely necessary for you to restore your home and ensure the safety of your family. Companies that are reputable stand behind their work with 100%.
  • The Right Time NOW! When you have mold, you want it gone now. Call for someone to start the drying process, pinpoint the cause, and begin testing to find out the best way to fix the problem.
  • The Best Practices Be sure the mold removal company employs safe methods for your family. For example, appropriate methods such as HEPA vacuuming for dust/spore control are always preferable over misting, which can bring an increase in moisture into the area.
  • The right credentials Look for 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 operate to the most stringent standards at all times. From the very first phone call until the post-remediation inspection the team should treat every client as family and each home in the same way as it were their own.
