  2. Visible Microbial Growth. Dark splotches on the ceiling, walls, floors, or baseboards. Splotches in the ceiling may indicate a leaking roof or a burst pipe or condensation in ductwork. Dark patches or the appearance of brown or black mold that are visible on the walls may indicate a cracked or burst pipe behind the wall. It may be an ongoing leak, however the damage will only increase.
  3. Soft moist areas on the floors, walls or Ceiling. This might suggest that microbial growth is present. The mold may not be visible yet, but it could be hiding behind the drywall, on the supporting studs, beneath the flooring, or in the ceiling of your home.

Typical 10 Step Process for removing mold

  1. Find the source. Find out the origin of the water intrusion. The source must be identified and corrected in order to prevent the water intrusion to from happening again.
  2. Visible Inspection of the The Water Damage. Expert technicians inspect for visible Microbial growth by looking in areas that could be missed.
  3. Diagnostic Testing. Specialized equipment can "sniff out" invisibly mold and other mold that may be lurking behind walls, on framing studs and drywall. Mold testing instruments ensure thorough detection. When necessary, air sample tests are conducted by a certified mold assessor or Indoor Environmental Professional (IEP). The IEP takes samples and test every suspected room. Every mold is not the exact same and the right tests will be able to distinguish deadly mold from merely nuisance mold.
  4. Establish Containment. Protecting the household and the remainder of the home against airborne mold spores by creating containment. This provides an safe border to allow removal work to begin. The kind of containment that is used will differ according to the area of contamination:
    • Source: small areas of contamination less then 10 square. ft. Bagged and removed.
    • Local is an area that can be closed off and remediated, usually 10 sq. feet. to 100 sq. ft.
    • Full-Containment areas that require an interim containment wall in order to prevent cross-contamination. It is used to block off an entire room or several rooms.
  5. Air Filtration. Installation of portable air filtration units to cleanse the air and enhance air quality in the home. Protecting the family from the spread of airborne pathogens is accomplished by establishing negative air pressures between the contaminated area and the rest of the home.
  6. Remove the Mold. Behind safety barriers, the technicians are able to remove materials affected by mold. This may include drywall, baseboards as well as cabinets, sinks or counters, and flooring in a kitchen. Removal of drywall from ceilings or insulation may be necessary when a roof leak is involved. It might include removing tubs or fixtures in the bathroom if it has penetrated the walls as a result of leaky pipes. Professionally trained technicians are meticulous in conserving what can be saved while ensuring removal of any trace of mold.
  7. Treatment for Mold. Once the damaged materials are removed, professional-grade treatment and removal tools are used, following IICRC guidelines. The remaining surfaces are cleaned and treated.
  8. Air Purification. Once removal and treatment is finished, air purification is performed for several days.
  9. Post-Remediation Air Sample Testing. After the air purification protocol is completed After the process is complete, following remediation air sample testing is carried out and is given an acceptable grade through the IEP.
  10. Equipment Removal. After post-remediation testing is finished and air samples are considered acceptable by a certified mold assessor or IEP, containment barriers and equipment are removed. This provides a clean canvas to bring in contractors to replace the walls or flooring or renovate the kitchen or bath as needed.

What to look for when Hiring an Mold Remediation Company

  • The Right Ethics Choose reputable businesses in the "location" and surrounding areas. They must offer reasonable prices and only recommend work that is necessary to restore your home and ensure the safety of your family. Trustworthy companies guarantee their work completely.
  • The Right Time NOW! If you find mold, you want it gone now. Call for someone to start the drying process to pinpoint the source, and begin testing to identify the solution to the problem.
  • The Right Practices Be sure the mold removal company employs safe practices to protect your family. For example, proper techniques like HEPA vacuuming to control dust or spores control is always preferred over misting, which could introduce an increase in moisture into the space.
  • The Right Credentials Seek out professionals certified in the areas of WRT (Water Restoration Technician), ASD (Applied Structural Drying), and AMRT (Applied Microbial Remediation Technician).
