Our Mold Remediation Process
• Before Mold Removal & remediation Testing: In certain situations pre-testing will be necessary. If you and your loved ones have an illness or symptoms that they believe could be from microbial growth, should consider a pre-test to help identify specific types of mildew that may cause an allergic reaction. The most common types of mold that are found are Cladosporium, Penicillium, Aspergillus, Alternaria, and Stachybotrys.
• Spore Containment: The first major step is to contain the airborne spores to stop mildew from spreading. For this, we’ll use professional-grade air scrubbers with HEPA filtration. In some situations, we may use negative air pressure to keep it from cross-contaminating your home.
• Lab Testing & Report: If needed we can hire a third-party indoor environmental professional (EIP) to test the air quality in your place of business or home. This will help confirm the absence of it in your infested area. You’ll receive a formal report once the lab testing and mold removal project is all complete.
