  1. The smell of mold is quite distinctive. It's a unique smell. Even if you don't discern anything, you know that it's there.
  2. visible microbial growth. Dark splotches on the ceiling, walls floors or baseboards. Spots on the ceiling may indicate a leaking roof or burst pipe or condensation in the ductwork. Dark patches or brown or black mold that are visible on the walls may be a sign of cracks or burst pipe behind the drywall. This may be a slow leak, but the damage is likely to increase.
  3. Soft Moist Spots on the floors, walls or Ceiling. This could indicate that the microbial growth may be present. Mold may appear invisible right now, but it could be behind the drywall, on the supporting studs, beneath the flooring, or in the roof of your home.
  4. Inexplicable Illness. A constant cough, headache, nausea or feeling sick only you are at home or in certain places. These persistent allergy-type symptoms may indicate mold is present. The four most vulnerable groups to the effects of mold are:
    • Children
    • The Elderly
    • Immunocompromised
    • Women who are pregnant
  5. Recent Water Event. The spores require water to grow, so a recent leak, flood, or sewer back-up could have caused the appropriate water activity needed in order to support mold growth.

    • Full containment areas that require a temporary containment barriers to prevent cross-contamination. The barrier is used to isolate the whole room or several rooms.
  5. Air Filtration. Installment of portable air filtration units to cleanse the air and improve air quality in the home. In order to protect the family from the spread of airborne pathogens can be achieved by creating negative air pressure between the contaminated area and the remainder of the home.
  6. Remove the Mold. Behind safety barriers, technicians begin to remove materials impacted by mold.

The removal of drywall from ceilings or insulation may be necessary if there was a roof leak is involved. It could involve removing bathtubs or fixtures in the bathroom if the water has penetrated the walls as a result of leaky pipes. Skilled technicians take great care in conserving what can be saved while taking care to ensure removal of all traces of mold.
  7. Treatment for Mold. Once the damaged materials were removed professional-grade treatment and removal tools are used, following IICRC guidelines. The surfaces that remain are cleaned and treated.
  8. Air Purification. Once removal and treatment is complete, air purification is performed for a number of days.
  9. Post-Remediation Air Sample Testing. After the air purification procedure is complete after the air purification protocol is completed, after the post-remediation air sample testing will be conducted and must be given an acceptable mark in accordance with the IEP.
  10. Equipment Removal. After the post-remediation testing is complete and air tests are deemed acceptable by an certified mold assessor or IEP, containment barriers and equipment are removed. This creates a clear canvas for bringing in contractors to install walls or flooring or remodel the kitchen or bath as needed.
