Both residential and commercial properties have the opportunity to run into mold problems. If mold grows out of control, it can pose serious health risks and even structural damage. We offer expert mold remediation services to tackle these challenges effectively. Here is how mold remediation is handled and why it’s important a professional helps you remove mold.
Understanding Mold Growth
Mold growth begins with the presence of moisture and organic materials like wood, paper, or dust. It can colonize rapidly in these conditions, often found in areas with poor ventilation and regular moisture, such as bathrooms, attics, and basements. Mold thrives under sinks, in closets, around windows, and other spots that get generally overlooked or unseen!
Mold Sampling & Inspection
We begin our remediation process with a thorough mold investigation, including visual inspections and mold sampling. Special filters and indoor air quality pumps are utilized to help identify what type of mold and how much of it is present. This approach helps define an effective remediation plan to eliminate the problem at the source. General catch-all fixes may not completely remove the mold or fix the source, so it can be a waste of time and money.
Remediation Process: What to Expect
The remediation process will assess the overall damage, including the investigation of affected areas, the size of the affected area, what materials were damaged, and the source of moisture problems. Hidden mold, especially in HVAC systems or behind walls, is identified using specialized equipment.
Eliminating the Moisture Source
Addressing the root cause. We focus on eliminating sources of moisture, which could be due to high humidity, water leaks, poor ventilation, or HVAC problems. This step is essential to prevent future mold growth. Depending on the level of damage, some materials must be discarded, but other materials can be cleaned effectively.
