Mold Removal and Cleaning of Affected Areas

How do we remove Mold?

  1. Assessment and Inspection:

    • A thorough assessment of the affected areas is conducted to determine the extent of the mold infestation.

    • We identify the type of mold present and assess the level of contamination.

  2. Containment:

    • Containment measures are implemented to prevent the spread of mold spores to unaffected areas.

    • Physical barriers, such as plastic sheeting and negative air pressure machines, may be used to isolate the contaminated area.

  3. Moisture Control:

    • Identifying and addressing the source of moisture is crucial to prevent mold from returning.

    • We may repair leaks, improve ventilation, or address other issues contributing to excessive moisture.

  4. Air Filtration:

    • High-efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filters are often used to trap mold spores and prevent them from circulating in the air during the remediation process.

  5. Removal and Cleaning:

    • Affected materials with mold growth, such as drywall or insulation, may need to be removed and properly disposed of.

    • Cleaning and disinfecting surfaces with approved antifungal agents help eliminate mold and prevent its recurrence.

  6. HVAC System Cleaning:

    • If the HVAC system is contaminated with mold, it may need cleaning or, in severe cases, replacement to prevent the spread of mold spores throughout the property.

  7. Preventive Measures:

    • We may recommend or implement preventive measures, such as improved ventilation, dehumidification, or the use of mold-resistant materials, to reduce the risk of future mold growth.
