Simple Signs You May Have a Mold Problem

  1. A sour smell. It's a unique smell. Even if it's impossible to detect anything, you know that it's there.
  2. Visible Microbial Growth. Dark splotches on the walls, ceiling floors or baseboards. Spots across the ceiling may indicate a leaking roof, burst pipe, or condensation in ductwork. Dark spots or dark brown or black mold in the walls may indicate a cracked or burst pipe behind the drywall. This may be an incipient leak, but the damage can only become worse.
  3. Soft moist areas on the floors, walls or Ceiling. This might be a sign that microbial growth may be present. The mold may have not been visible yet, but it could be behind the drywall or on the supporting studs, beneath the flooring, or in the attic of your home.
  4. Unexplained Illness. The constant headaches, coughing and nausea or feeling sick only at home or in certain places. The persistent symptoms of allergies may be a sign that mold exists. The 4 groups most susceptible to mold-related illnesses are:
    • Children
    • Senior citizens
    • Immunocompromised
    • Pregnant Women
  5. Recent Water Event. The spores need water to grow, so an earlier flood, leak flood, or sewer back-up could have caused the appropriate water activity needed for support mold growth.
If you observe any of these symptoms, call now for a comprehensive mold inspection. The certification and comprehensive testing is readily available. If you have any problem, professionals can find the issue and solve it.

A Typical 10 Step Method to Remove Mold

  1. Find the source. Locate the root of the water intrusion. The source must be identified and rectified so as to prevent the water intrusion from repeating itself.
  2. Visible Inspection of the Inspection of the Damage. Expert technicians examine for visible microbial growth, looking in places that may be overlooked.
  3. Diagnostic Testing. The equipment is specially designed to "sniff out" invisible mold which may be hiding in the walls, stud framing and drywall. Its mold testing instruments ensure thorough detection. When necessary, air sample tests can be conducted by an certified mold assessor or Indoor Environmental Professional (IEP). The IEP takes samples and tests every suspected room. 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 household and the rest of the home from the airborne mold spores by establishing containment. This provides an safe border for removal and work can begin. The kind of containment employed will differ depending on the location of contamination:
    • Source: small areas of contamination smaller than 10 sq. ft. Bagged and removed.
    • Local is an area that is able to be sealed off and remediated, usually 10 sq. feet. up to 100 sq. ft.
    • Full-Containment areas which require a temporary containment barriers in order to prevent cross-contamination. The barrier is used to isolate an entire room or multiple rooms.
  5. Air Filtration. Installation of small portable air filtration units to cleanse the air and improve air quality in the home. The protection of the family from pathogens that are transmitted by air can be achieved by creating negative air pressure between the air-contaminated zone and the rest of the home.
  6. Take out the Mold. Behind safety barriers, technicians begin to remove materials impacted by mold. This may include drywall, baseboards as well as cabinets, sinks or counters, and flooring in kitchens. Removal of drywall on ceilings or insulation may be necessary when the roof leak is involved. It might involve removing tubs or fixtures in the bathroom, if it has been able to penetrate the walls as a result of leaky pipes. Highly skilled technicians are meticulous in keeping what is kept while also taking care to ensure removal of all evidence of mold.
  7. Mold Treatment. After damaged materials have been removed professional-grade treatment and removal products are employed, following IICRC guidelines. The remaining surfaces are then cleaned and treated.
  8. Air Purification. After removal and treatment complete, the treatment and removal complete, air purification is performed for a number of days.
  9. Post-Remediation Air Sample Testing. Once the air purification process is completed, following remediation air sample testing is conducted and must be given an A+ grade by the IEP.
  10. Equipment Removal. After the post-remediation testing is completed and air tests are accepted by an certified mold assessor or IEP, containment barriers and equipment are removed. This provides a clean canvas for bringing in contractors to replace walls or flooring or renovate the kitchen or bath as needed.

What to Look for When hiring a Mold Remediation Company

  • The Right Price Trustworthy mold removal companies will never cost more than required. They thoroughly inspect homes and recommend work necessary in order to bring the home to an healthy condition. Be cautious of businesses that may overcharge you or pad bills.
  • The Right Ethics Find reputable companies in the "location" and surrounding areas. They should have fair rates and only recommend work that is necessary to restore your home and ensure family safety. Companies that are reputable stand behind their work 100%.
  • The Right Time NOW! If you find mold, you want it gone now. Contact someone to begin the drying process to identify the source, and begin testing to determine how to fix the problem.
  • The Best Practices Ensure that the mold removal company uses safe procedures to protect your family. For example, appropriate methods like HEPA vacuuming for dust and spore control is always preferred over misting, which could introduce additional moisture into the zone.
  • The right credentials Find 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 adhere in accordance with the highest standards throughout the day. From the very first phone call up to the post-remediation inspection the team should treat every customer like family and every home like it were their own.
