What are the Basic Mold Cleanup Steps?
Professional mold removal companies take a multitude of steps to ensure they conduct a thorough mold remediation and mold removal process. The key to mold prevention and mold removal is moisture control.
Inspection and Mold Damage Testing
Mold remediation and removal simply takes time, if you were to throw bleach at everything and pray for the best, it's not going to work. Removing Mold and Inspecting for Mold is a very thorough process if done correctly. The remediation process necessitates specialized equipment, personal protective equipment and gear, and appropriate cleaning agents tailored to the specific mold types and surfaces affected. Once you have conducted detailed mold testing and sectioned off your contaminated areas - it's important to follow produres to prevent mold growth.
Mold Containment Procedures
We employ diverse containment methods to halt mold spread. This could involve implementing advanced techniques such as a negative air chamber, which isolates the affected zone using physical barriers and negative air pressure. This strategy effectively prevents mold spores from dispersing during the cleanup. Additionally, all fans, heating, and cooling systems might be deactivated to impede the spread of mold.
Air and Area Filtration
Our specialized filtration tools enable us to capture minuscule mold spores from the air. Utilizing robust "air scrubbers", we effectively contain these mold spores, preventing their dispersion throughout the mold remediation procedure.
Removing Mold and Mold-Infested Materials
When in doubt- throw it out! Though our mold removal and remediation process is detailed and specifically designed to remove mold, sometimes it's not that easy. In cases with specific molds, such as black mold or alternaria mold, that can produce toxins at a rapid rate it's better to remove those items entirely. Absorbent or porous materials, such as ceiling tiles and carpet, may have to be thrown away if they become moldy. Mold can grow on or fill in the empty spaces and crevices of porous materials, so the mold may be difficult or impossible to remove completely.
Cleaning Contents and Belongings
Employing diverse cleaning methods, we sanitize and cleanse hard surfaces and your possessions thoroughly. Our expertise extends to odor removal and deodorization, utilizing fogging equipment and other specialized methods to ensure a complete restoration process.
Restoration
The extent of mold damage determines the necessary removal cost of removing drywall, subfloors, and other structural materials. Restoration efforts might encompass minor fixes like drywall replacement, painting, and installing new carpeting. In more severe cases, major repairs such as reconstructing entire sections or rooms within a residence or commercial space might be required.

Facts on Mold
Mold exists almost everywhere, both indoors and outdoors
Mold is omnipresent, existing indoors and outdoors alike. Its microscopic spores travel through the air and can enter your home via windows, doors, HVAC system, or hitch a ride indoors on clothing or pets.
Mold spores thrive in moist environments
Thriving in moisture, mold spores quickly evolve into colonies when exposed to water. These colonies may produce allergens and irritants, potentially causing health complications.
That Smell...
Mold often emits a potent, musty odor, which can guide you toward potential mold problem areas. Even indoor humidity levels higher than normal can facilitate mold growth. Maintaining indoor humidity below 45 percent is advisable.
