A Typical 10 Step Process for removing mold

  1. Find the source. Locate the source 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 microbe growth and look in areas that could be overlooked.
  3. Diagnostic Testing. The equipment is specially designed to "sniff out" undetectable mold which may be hiding in the walls, stud framing and drywall. Its mold testing devices ensure thorough detection. In the event that it is necessary, air sample tests can be taken by a certified mold assessor or Indoor Environmental Professional (IEP). The IEP will take samples and examines every room suspected of having mold. Every mold is not the exact same and the right tests can distinguish dangerous mold from just nuisance mold.
  4. Establish Containment. Protection of the members of the family and the remainder of the home against airborne mold spores by establishing containment. This establishes a safe area to allow removal work to begin. The type of containment used will vary in accordance with the zone of contamination:
    • Source: small areas of contamination smaller that 10 sq. ft. Bagged and removed.
    • Local is One room which is able to be sealed off and remedied, usually 10 sq. ft. up to 100 sq. ft.
    • Full Containment: areas that require an interim containment barriers for temporary containment to prevent cross-contamination. The barrier is used to isolate an entire room or multiple rooms.
  5. Air Filtration. Installation of portable air filtration units to cleanse 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 pressure between the contaminated area and the rest of the home.
  6. Get rid of the Mold. Behind safety barriers, technicians start to remove materials affected by mold. This may include drywall, baseboards, cabinets, sinks or counters, and flooring in the kitchen. Removal of drywall on ceilings or insulation may be necessary if the roof leak is involved. It may require removing tubs or fixtures in the bathroom if the water has penetrated the walls due to leaking pipes. Highly skilled technicians are meticulous in preserving what can be saved while making sure removal of any trace 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 cleaned and treated.
  8. Air Purification. Once removal and treatment complete, the treatment and removal complete, air purification is performed for a number of days.
  9. Post-Remediation Air Sample Testing. After the air purification protocol is complete After the process is complete, following remediation air sample testing takes place. conducted and is given an acceptable mark through the IEP.
  10. Equipment Removal. After the post-remediation testing is finished and air sample is accepted by an certified mold assessor or IEP, containment barriers and equipment is removed. This creates a clear canvas for bringing in contractors to repair walls or flooring or redesign the kitchen or bathroom as required.

What to Look for When Finding a Mold Remediation Company

  • The Right Ethics Look for well-respected companies in the "location" and surrounding areas. They must offer reasonable prices and only suggest work that is necessary to restore your home and ensure your family's safety. Reputable companies stand behind their work completely.

  • The Right Practices Ensure that the mold removal company employs safe procedures for your family. For example, proper techniques like HEPA vacuuming for dust/spore control is always preferred over misting, which could introduce additional moisture into the area.
  • The right credentials Look for 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 work in accordance with the highest standards throughout the day. From the initial phone call to the post-remediation inspection, they must treat each customer as family and every home as if it were their own.
