  2. Visible Microbial Growth. Dark splotches on the ceiling, walls floors or baseboards. Spots across the ceiling may indicate a leaking roof or a burst pipe or condensation in ductwork. Dark patches or dark brown or black mold in the walls may suggest cracks or burst pipe that is hidden behind the wall. This may be an incipient leak, but the damage is likely to increase.
  3. soft moist spots on the Floors, Walls or Ceiling. This might be a sign that microbial growth is occurring. The mold may appear invisible at this point but it may be hiding behind the drywall, on the supporting studs, beneath the flooring, or in the ceiling of your home.
  4. Inexplicable illness. Nagging coughing, headaches, nausea or being sick only at home or in certain areas. These symptoms that persist may be a sign that mold exists. The four most vulnerable groups to the effects of mold are:
    • Children
    • The Elderly
    • Immune-compromised
    • Women who are pregnant

  1. Find the source. Find out the source of the water intrusion. This must be pinpointed and remedied in order to prevent the water intrusion occurring again. happening again.
  2. A visible inspection of the Water Damage. Expert technicians inspect for visible Microbial growth and look in places that may be overlooked.
  3. Diagnostic Testing. Specialized equipment can "sniff out" undetectable mold that may be lurking in the walls, on framing studs and drywall. 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 will take samples and examines every room suspected of having mold. Every mold isn't the same, and the appropriate tests can distinguish dangerous mold from merely nuisance mold.
  4. Establish Containment. Protection of the household and the remainder of the home in the home from the airborne mold spores by establishing containment. This creates the safe area for removal and work can begin. The type of containment used will vary depending on the area of contamination:
    • Source: small areas of contamination less that 10 sq. ft. Bagged and removed.
    • Local: One room which can be closed off and remediated, usually 10 sq. feet. to 100 sq. ft.
    • Full containment areas which require an interim containment barriers in order to prevent cross-contamination. Used to seal off the whole room or several rooms.
  5. Air Filtration. Installation of small portable air filtration units to cleanse the air and enhance air quality in the home. In order to protect the family from airborne pathogens can be achieved by creating negative air tension between the air-contaminated zone and the remainder of the home.
  6. Take out the Mold. Behind security barriers, technicians are able to remove materials affected by mold. This may include drywall, baseboards, cabinets, sinks or counters, and flooring in a kitchen. Removal of drywall covering ceilings or insulation may be necessary in the event of there was a roof leak occurred. It may involve removing tubs or fixtures in the bathroom, if it has been able to penetrate the walls due to leaking pipes. Highly skilled technicians take great care in preserving what can be preserved while taking care to ensure removal of all traces of mold.
  7. Treatment for Mold. Once the damaged materials are removed, professional grade treatment and removal items are used, following IICRC guidelines. The remaining surfaces are cleaned and treated.
  8. Air Purification. After removal and treatment has been finished, 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 through the IEP.
  10. Equipment Removal. After the post-remediation testing is completed and air samples are considered acceptable by an certified mold assessor or IEP, containment barriers and equipment are removed. This provides a clean canvas to bring in contractors to repair the walls or flooring or renovate the kitchen or bathroom as needed.

What to look for when Hiring a Mold Remediation Company

  • The Right Price Reputable mold removal companies will never be charged for work that is not required. They carefully inspect homes and suggest the works necessary to return the home to a healthy condition. Be cautious of companies that might increase prices or bill you for pad costs.
  • The Right Ethics Look for well-respected companies in the "location" and surrounding areas. They should offer fair prices and only recommend work that is absolutely necessary for you to restore your home and ensure the safety of your family. Reputable companies stand behind their work 100%.
  • The Right Time NOW! When you have mold and you're concerned about it, you'll want it gone immediately. Get someone in touch to start the drying process and pinpoint the cause, and begin testing to identify the solution to the problem.
  • The right practices Ensure that the mold removal company utilizes safe methods for your family. For instance, safe methods like HEPA vacuuming for dust/spore control are always preferable over misting, which can introduce more moisture into the area.
  • The right credentials Seek out professionals certified in WRT (Water Restoration Technician), ASD (Applied Structural Drying), and AMRT (Applied Microbial Remediation Technician).
  • The Right Team Professional teams work to the highest standards throughout the day. From the beginning of the phone call until the post-remediation inspection the team should treat every client as family and every home as if it were their own.
