  2. visible microbial growth. Dark splotches on the ceilings, walls, floors, or baseboards. Splotches on the ceiling may indicate a leaking roof, burst pipe, or condensation in ductwork. Dark patches or the appearance of brown or black mold in the walls may be a sign of cracks or burst pipe in the wall. This may be an incipient leak, but the damage is likely to get worse.
  3. Soft moist areas on the Floors, Walls or Ceiling. This could indicate that microbial growth may be present. The mold may appear invisible yet but it may be hidden behind the drywall or on the supporting studs, beneath the floors, or in the roof of your home.

A complete assortment of services comprising water damage restoration, inspection, and mold removal is offered. Call today to schedule a comprehensive mold inspection in your home or business. A Indoor Environmental Professional (IEP) will evaluate the type and degree of pollution in your property and help restore it to the healthy state.

The typical 10 Step Method for removing mold

  1. Find the source. Find out the origin of the water intrusion. This must be pinpointed and remedied in order to prevent the water intrusion to from happening again.
  2. A visible inspection of the Water Damage. Expert technicians examine for visible microbial growth by looking in places that may be overlooked.
  3. Diagnostic Testing. The equipment is specially designed to "sniff out" invisibly mold which may be hiding behind walls, stud framing and drywall. The mold testing devices ensure thorough detection. When necessary, air sample tests can be taken by an certified mold assessor or Indoor Environmental Professional (IEP). The IEP collects samples and tests every suspected room. Each mold isn't the identical, and the appropriate tests can distinguish dangerous mold from nuisance mold.
  4. Establish Containment. Protection of the household and the rest of the home against airborne mold spores by creating containment. This provides a safe border to allow removal work to begin. The type of containment used will vary depending on the area of contamination:
    • Source: small areas of contamination smaller then 10 square. ft. Bagged and removed.
    • Local: an area that can be sealed off and cleaned, typically 10 sq. feet. to 100 sq. ft.
    • Full-Containment areas where there is a need for the use of a temporary containment barrier for temporary containment to prevent cross-contamination. The barrier is used to isolate the entire area or multiple rooms.
  5. Air Filtration. Installation of small portable air filtration units to purify the air and enhance air quality in the home. In order to protect the family from pathogens that are transmitted by air can be achieved by creating negative air tension between the affected area and the rest of the home.
  6. Get rid of the Mold. Behind safety barriers, the technicians start to remove materials that are impacted by mold. This may include baseboards, drywall and cabinets, sinks or counters, and flooring in kitchens. Removal of drywall on ceilings or insulation may be necessary in the event of a roof leak is involved. It might include removing tubs or fixtures in the bathroom if it has penetrated the walls because of leaky pipes. Skilled technicians take great care in conserving what can be kept while also taking care to ensure removal of all evidence of mold.
  7. Treatment for Mold. Once damaged materials were 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 complete, the treatment and removal finished, air purification is performed for a number of days.
  9. Post-Remediation Air Sample Testing. After the air purification protocol is complete, post-remediation air sample testing is conducted and must be given a passing mark through the IEP.
  10. Equipment Removal. After post-remediation testing is finished and air tests are accepted by an certified mold assessor or IEP, containment barriers and equipment is removed. This leaves a clean palette for bringing in contractors to replace walls or flooring or redesign the kitchen or bath as needed.

What to Look For When Hiring a Mold Remediation Company

  • The Right Price Trustworthy mold removal firms will never charge for more work than required. They will carefully examine homes and suggest the actions necessary to return the home to an healthy state. Beware of businesses that may overcharge you or charge pad fees.
  • The Right Ethics Find reputable companies in the location and surrounding areas. They should offer fair prices and only recommend work that is necessary in order to restore your home and ensure family safety. Trustworthy companies guarantee their work with 100%.
  • The Right Time NOW! When you have mold, you want to get rid of it quickly. Get someone in touch to start the drying process to pinpoint the source, and begin testing to determine how to fix the problem.
  • The Best Practices Make sure that the mold removal company employs safe practices for your family. For instance, safe methods such as HEPA vacuuming for dust/spore control is always preferred over misting, which can introduce an increase in moisture into the area.
  • The Right Credentials Look for technicians certified in 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 every day. From the initial phone call up to the post-remediation inspection the team must treat each customer as family and each home as if it was their own.
