Mold Remediation

Our mold damage restoration services are led by a team of certified specialists equipped to handle mold infestations effectively. Utilizing advanced antifungal and antimicrobial solutions, we eradicate existing mold colonies and implement measures to prevent their recurrence. In cases of severe mold growth, we may need to remove and safely dispose of porous materials like drywall and carpets to ensure thorough remediation.

Unveiling the Characteristics of Mold

Mold manifests in various forms and thrives in environments with excess moisture. According to the Environmental Protection Agency, “Mold may begin growing indoors when mold spores land on surfaces that are wet” and “if there is mold growth in your home, you must clean up the mold and fix the water problem. If you clean up the mold, but don’t fix the water problem, then, most likely, the mold problem will come back”.

Immediate Measures to Manage Mold: Safeguard Your Environment

1. Containment is Crucial: In the presence of mold, it’s imperative to confine the affected area. Keep pets, children, and occupants away from the mold-infested zone, and if possible, seal off the area with doors to minimize spreading.
2. HVAC Systems Offline: Turn off all heating, ventilation, and air conditioning systems, as well as fans or air movers, to prevent further dispersal of mold spores.
3. Identify and Address Moisture Sources: Locate the origin of moisture and take immediate action to halt it, reducing the likelihood of recurrent mold issues.
4. Hands-Off Approach: Refrain from touching or disturbing mold to prevent the dispersal of spores.
5. Avoid Air Circulation Over Mold: Do not direct airflow over areas with visible or suspected mold growth.
6. Professional Drying: Do not attempt to dry the affected area independently; rely on expert assistance for thorough drying and mold remediation.
7. Exercise Caution with Chemicals: Avoid using bleach or disinfectants on mold, as improper use may exacerbate the situation.
8. Seek Professional Intervention: Entrust the drying and mold remediation process to certified professionals for comprehensive restoration.
