  • The Right Practices Be sure the mold removal company uses safe procedures to protect your family. For example, proper techniques like HEPA vacuuming to control dust or spores control are always preferable over misting, which could introduce more moisture into the area.
  • The Right Credentials Look for professionals certified in WRT (Water Restoration Technician), ASD (Applied Structural Drying), and AMRT (Applied Microbial Remediation Technician).
  • The Right Team Professional teams operate according to the highest standards at all times. From the initial phone call up to the post-remediation inspection the team must treat each customer as family and every home as if it is their home.
