Our Mold Remediation Process
Our mold remediation process is thorough and detailed to ensure we get all traces of moisture, condensation, and mold out of your home:
- Initial call – As soon as we receive a call about water damage or mold, we gather information about the situation to determine what equipment, resources, and personnel are needed. We will then send one or more of our specialists to your home.
- Inspection & assessment – We carefully inspect your property for signs of water damage, condensation and moisture, humidity, and mold growth. We use state-of-the-art equipment to detect hidden water damage and mold growth.
- Containment – We then use mold containment procedures to prevent the spread of mold. We may need you to relocate during the mold remediation process, or we may be able to isolate the contaminated area by putting up barriers and using negative air pressure to prevent spores from spreading.
- Air filtration – We may use a negative air chamber, HEPA air filters, vacuums, and air scrubbers to remove harmful contaminants and mold spores from the air.
- Removing mold – We are certified in mold remediation and biocide application. We will use antifungal and antimicrobial treatments to kill mold on surfaces and structures, and to prevent new mold growth or spreading.
- Isolating & removing infested belongings – We assess all structures, surfaces, and belongings to determine what is salvageable and what must be removed. We demolish and safely remove contaminated items.
- Cleaning – We can then proceed with cleaning furniture, rugs, carpeting, clothing, and decorative items to ensure all traces of mold are removed. We can also remove odors and deodorize your home.
- Restoration – We can then refer you to contractors and specialists who can restore drywall, subfloors, walls, tiles, carpeting, and other structures that were removed due to mold contamination.
